We should probly give this a certain criteria All D/D and work rigs but it has to be a recent pic with the snow and a local street where you are and an explanation of how you use the rig to accomplish daily tasks related to your daily lives even the sex slaved rigs are ok LOL

[84broncoII]

OK, so it's mine for the day. A few of us have been off-site repairing some derailed cars. The regular crew finished up while my parts were on order. Rather than send a repair unit with it's crew to help me, they put me in the "welding truck": The F-450 you see here. It has a bigger torch that puts out some BTUs, the bottles that feed it, and a newer welder. Man that thing is a Hoss!!!

It made for an enjoyable day today; and the half day yesterday that I didn't have to listen to all the screaming and yelling.

I was the only one not afraid to drive the HMWVV like they are ment to be driven, so I had to do this for every vehicle...oh.and i couldnt turn around anywhere, so i had to back out....and it was a regular process, as it was where we were set up during training...i got good at backing that thing up through a mud puddle.


did i mention that i hate curbs? (im the first one)

very nice

[rwmorrisonjr]

Nice upgrade.

[84broncoII]

I suppose they expect you to wash it and wax it on Your own time now ?.
nice rig !The reason I ask is Ive seen some really new trucks totally trashed all the time simply because of the environment they are in constantly .The boss shows up in a bright new shiny one that never works and has that look ....what happened to the new trucks I just bought ?? So,somebody has the bright idea to have a truck wash untill the boss sees the bill ....,then no more wash LOL .

[84broncoII]

Ive recently been forced to use My 62 GMC as a werk truck so i put the camper shell back on and the ladder rack .I got My parts to fix the trailer axel last night ,so as soon as I get off My duff and install them I'll go back to using one of the broncoII's as a pull vehical .dont have time for pics now Im late for work LOL so i'll do it tonight iffin I'm not too tired.should be an easy day for Me .after last job where I had to partially tear out a water damaged cieling old plaster and wood lath that was water damaged then I had to hang 10 sheets of 1/2 " drywall on the cieling alone if You dont think thats difficult You need to try it sometime especially when the cieling is @ 10 '.aaarrrrrg1?@#$%&!!.Then I had to tape float sand texture prime and paint it to match ,re install the lights ,all while the people are trying to live in the house with no kitchen or dining area .contain the dust and lead and fumes to My work area .and then clean everything to make it look new .
All I have to do today is clean out my truck and tools throw away the plastic sheeting I used and then go match a color on another home for a bathroom epoxy because they make too much steam in thier bathroom ?LOL

We lease trucks to United Rentals at work. Supervisors and some of the salespeople get take home trucks. Currently they are Dodge 2500 4x4 quad cabs with the "Big Horn" package. They have the 6.7 H.O. Cummins and are loaded up pretty good. They lease for 6 months and some of them look like they haven't seen a paved road, car wash, or vacuum in that time. We had an 08 come in today with more than 29,000 miles on it and totally trashed. Even though it is a Dodge and you get a new one every 6 months, I would respect my truck as it is a tool. I would at least charge the assignee for the excess wear and tear.

[84broncoII]

I've used My 62 for a werk truck for 17 yrs I bought it for 1700 bucks as a second home while I finish a job in the mountains I respect it as My most valuable tool .I have recently tried to retire it and I currently own 4 old BII's but it's a real chore keeping them running like My old GMC it is very simple and basic back then they didnt try to tweek everything from the factory like they do today granted it is obsolite but in a good way old world quality at an afordable price built to last a lifetime .A dream... maby?

On a lighter note : I got My trailer axel put back together tonight so ,I'll be working the old 84 BII soon. As a tool puller. As soon as I get My stuff moved into it and set up .Im back in business .
