Nice rigs you got there, what's the big one?

Nice vanity plate, reminds me of the aftershave commercial.
Do you experience a lot of close shaves drilling those hole

I presume you always Call Before You Dig

Thanks Dave!

The big one is actually a "rock drill" it hammers 22" holes up to 16" deep. We use it mostly for sports light foundations. The picture was taken last december, when we were working at the West Point Military Academy.

The F-350 was my daily driver since I bought it new in 2002. I should of put the mods. under the picture. Since last May, I mostly drive a crew cab Lincoln (F-150w/ Lincoln decals.

4" bds lift, edelbrock nitro shocks, superchips programer, k+n air filter, 4" bully dog exhaust, road armor front bumper w/warn winch, custom made rear bumper, dump body, hide-away stobes, used to have 35" nittos mud grapplers on it now im running 35" cooper stts. 126,000 miles.

I guess thats about it

Did you change your differential ratios when you went to the 35" tires?

Is that a GMC hauling your rock drill?

No need really, w/the tuner adding HP and changing shift points you dont even feel a difference (even when towing)

Yes,

Im not happy with it, its got a cat engine but the truck sucks. There are plans to change it over to a Mack. I have two other Macks that I love.
