tell me about it. its also been somewhat hilarious that for some time customers were willing to pay drivers with bobcats and other loaders more than a driver with a plow. now they are starting to realize a plow can perform a better job in much less time so the end cost is less. plus cant tell you how many trailers ive seen jackknifed with a loader on it trying to get to another site. -- ------------------------------------------ laszlo almasi carolina watercraft works ice angels i just hope we get a valid warning the next time instead of the it will stop any time now crap we got during that three incher or people will die of starvation around here waiting for the roads to be cleaned. i do find it funny watching heavy construction equipment graders loaders and dozers out on the roads trying to do the job of snow plows. -- if at first you dont succeed youre not cut out for skydiving lol....ur right about that....just iamgine how 2 feet works us over. excellent time though for us that manage snow though. -- ------------------------------------------ laszlo almasi carolina watercraft works ice angels a two footer hell we were paralyzed by a three incher here last time lol! -- if at first you dont succeed youre not cut out for skydiving i hear ya. i havent really run into enough snow yet to have them be a problem....but they work very well for rain. hopefully ill find out how they perform with snow. praying for another 2 footer here this winter. ^ -- ------------------------------------------ laszlo almasi carolina watercraft works ice angels carolina watercraft works cooltoys@bellsouth.net wrote in message you ought to check into the the piaa super sporza wiper replacement for wipers that lift off the surface of the glass. i use them on my 2001 ram since the oem blades would lift as well at highway speeds. these wipers are awesome. laz my only thought is that they look like they will be just like any other blade regards snow build up. roy .

jtnospam@yahoo.com wrote i have a 1979 dodge rv 440 engine and the tranny is almost shot. i have been offered a tranny from a late 60s dodge with a 360 engine. will it just switch out and will it handle the rv with a light tow trailer neither has an overdrive. thanks in advance.-jitney it will bolt in but i would not use it as the 440 has a lot more torque. try and find a old 727 out of a full size car that had a 440 in it to begin with because they were built a bit heavier and they had a different converter too than the one used on smaller engines. -- ----------------- www.thesnoman.com .

as the current owner of the said eighth wonder of the world 318 and son of budd i can atest to every word of his. and yes he did teach me to drive and i have had 4 accidents in 8 years he must be terribly disappointed in you. and only one was my fault. my point just making sure you knew that there are people on here that have known budd for at least half of his life. he has never lied cheated or stole anything from me or anyone else that he knows. oh so he only cheats lies to and steals from strangers...right budd is a kind and loving father and one of my best ands closest friends. i have seen him pull off things in vehicle that would have sent must of you on the hunt for a new car. we came out with no damage on either vehicle. in closing all i ask is that you concider that maybe he is telling the truth. he may believe everything that he says but he certainly doesnt comprehend much of what he reads. this thread is proof enough of that. dave .
