Not So Pro 3

[JoeDirt]

Nothing bothers me, except someone calling me a liar. I don't lie. Otherwise have at it. If something can be taken two ways, mean, and funny, I always assume funny. Much easier way to go through life.

I lie all the time. Dallas isn't gay... see?

It’s a 3/4 ton, not a half ton! I wouldn’t drive no toy half ton either unless it was free.

Yes you would. And most new half tons have more payload and towing capacity than your 20 year old 3/4 ton.

i have hauled a case 450 behind mine and i have a picture
but i wouldnt with a gas motor probably the 6.0 in his truck

No one said you was smart.

brake capacity is where the bigger trucks have the advantage

truck is 7760
trailer is 5500
dozer is 12000
still below what truck is licensed for

Evening folks. Tried replacing the hand guard/chain brake in my McCulloch MacCat today, but in an attempt to remove a bolt, it busted off in the saw and I tried getting it out with speed outs and such with no luck. Really pissed me off. I’ll try soaking it in PBlaster for a week. Pondering if I need to have my Kohler engine rebuild bored…
Here’s a pic of the truck I’m probably buying next weekend for only $900, I know someone wanted a pic, but forgot who, or was it another person wanting pics of my grandma…

Little buckin' billy ray if want a return on your investment get stihl, husqvarna, echo homeowner or professional saws to fix and resell
They'll outsell anything but maybe the largest McCullough's
Do not post pics of your grandma
They are just *f-wording with you.
I have three of those trucks
900.00 is a good price if it's operable
Drive illegally i did from about 12-17
Never got caught.

Licensed for and rated for are 2 totally different numbers. And DOT doesn’t care if you paid for higher plates, if the truck isn’t rated for the combination.

Not sure what dozer you plan to haul with a pickup but I call bullsh!t

I don’t, I was just using that as an example about the work we do with our trucks. We use a 1 ton for small-medium dozers.

Maybe so, but new vehicles have so much stupid electronics and s-word that I wouldn’t want on unless I won the lottery.


Maybe I was being a little hard on half tons before. I’ll share a real cool story tho that contradicts my previous statements. 20 years ago my dad hauled a 14ish thousand pound dozer with his 95’ Sierra half ton on a 3 hour drive. It actually did it.

Small dozer maybe, but a “medium” dozer - no way yoy are hauling those legally, behind a pickup.

900 dollars hauling a small to medium size dozer. Thank god I don’t live by you. I can see this going about as good as Dallas sex change surgery went

The McCulloch I was talking about is for my personal collection, not to resell. Although I do resell many saws. I know that the name brands sell better and have other benefits. I want a Husqvarna 55 Rancher and a Stihl Farm Boss or 2 eventually for myself. I already have a couple old Stihls.
Cool, and yes it’s operable.
My mom won’t let me drive illegally. I’m already 16 anyways. I heard on the radio some guy drove illegally from age 12 all the way until he recently got caught at age 76!

Did he seriously have that surgery?

 

[Mastermind]

Friend of mine went from a 2wd backhoe to a 4wd. DOT busted him for being overweight pulling it with a 1 ton Dodge. The 2wd was barely allowed....the 4wd put him over.

Ask her yourself

So you're saying granny was in WV, around the time of your conception.

That makes total sense now.

Was it because he didn’t have a CDL?

brake capacity is where the bigger trucks have the advantage

They rate them with the brakes in mind. 2002 Silverado 2500 with a 6.0L was rated with 10,400lbs. The 8.1 and diesel were rated for 12,000. A 2020 F150 with the 3.5 Ecoboost is rated for 13,200 lbs. The 2024s with the Powerboost are rated for almost 14,000.

I've grossed 37k and 38k, more then a few times with my 2nd gen Ram 3500.

Keep in mind, it's only illegal, if ya get caught.

the sticker on any pickup isnt gonna be what a truck and empty trailer is

the case 450 is about the same size as the john deere 350

Not sure I’d tow that much or anything with a half ton especially a Ford
