You bet Brad, a flattie with a supercharger would be neat, but I am going after a truck in the end that I can take on a 5-6 hour drive if i need too haha.
Not that I would want to with a 460 done up a little either, i would have to borrow 20 bucks from each of my buds in here just for gas!!
And jake the hammer, thats a deadly nickname!

Good luck Sheldon. Although if you are here with us I have the feeling that it did not work.

There are people that are REALLY into it. They plan vacations around it. I am not that extreme but I do like to watch for them and will make a detour on a road trip if there is a famous rail crossing or landmark close by. The coolest thing that ever happened to me train related was seeing a UP DD40AX, road number 6936 rolling down the tracks along Highway 75, just north of Willis, TX. I almost ran off the road. The DD40AX is the largest diesel locomtove ever built. It's a monster and there is only one DD40AX on the rails still and I saw it. Didn't have a camera with me though....rats!
This is a DD40Ax that is in Cody Park in North Platte, NE.

Thanks Jay, Sheldon and everyone else! Sheldon, info on the Lanz Bulldog: semi diesel engine, damn reliable, takes about 10-20 minutes to start even worse in cold weather, burns any type of unrefined fuel IE:diesel fuel, cooking oil, waste engine oil, and fuel oil.

LOL. wow. Right now maybe he should concentrate on wrestling. Plenty of time for girls in college.
There is a term for those people: railroaders call them "foamers". Nothing wrong with being a foamer. I am a semi-foamer.
I guess the AE is about $600 if you have a laptop to put it on.
