Good evening gents. Well I installed the vise and fire ext. today, the welder is mocked up to drill the mounting holes. I will work most of the weekend trying to get it ready for work. but it will be worth it when its done.

Thats cool, they seem like a pretty decent company to work for, I almost drove truck for them a few years back.

By the way, if you ever see any 19.lx24 tires kicking around from a backhoe that still have a little tread on them, let me know!

I need to buy a couple for my backhoe, and I think Im going to be replacing the whole hoe in the next few years, so I didnt wanna go throw a brand new set on quite yet.

It seems that 90% of tire trouble is in the last 10% of the tire life......

Good morning everyone, tires should last twice what they use to, they just about doubled in price!

Yep, and gas / diesel should propel a vehicle 10x what they do too using that logic...

However, do you see people working twice as hard as they were, say 10-15 years ago, just because they make twice as much...

It was a joke Laredo, lighten up!

I work as hard today, and make less money then I did in the 80's!

My plan today was to do just that. My 7yr old came to our room at 7:30am asking: " where's my I-Pod? "
