    Sometimes you should have a second opinion before you post a sign

    When my wife worked at Walmart the cashiers and stock people weren't allowed to do anything about shoplifters. The shoplifting had to be observed by a PIC, supervisor or loss prevention personnel.

    Longest pocket tape measure I have ever seen

    Sorry, I added to the drift! I guess it was kinda of like a conversation where one thing leads to another! I didn't see where the one comment was accidentally posted in the wrong thread and responded to it. My bad.

    If the tires are aired up, put the shifter in high gear and rock the tractor by pushing on a rear tire. Watch to see if the fan moves when you do that. If the tires aren't aired up, jack up ONE rear tire, shift into high and rock the tire that is off the ground and watch for the fan to move. If...

    Longest pocket tape measure I have ever seen

    Yea Yeah I've always known valve float as the inability of the valve to fully close at high rpm due to weak valve springs. Valve bounce is when they close but due to coil spring oscillation they will "bounce" back open. That video looks more like hydraulic lifters that collapse at high rpm so...

    If ya cant beat em join em?

    There was a green H or M for sale on Bismanonline quite a while ago. Hard to say, there may be a few of them out there. Or maybe several sightings of the same one!

    What happened to pickups??

    My trucks have boxes and hoists on them and are ~2 tons. My pickup is a 3/4 ton X-cab with 6.5 foot box. Exactly what I want in a pickup. I would also take a full 4 door 3/4 ton pickup as long as it has the 6.5 foot box. Just don't like the 5-some-odd-foot boxes.

    Could be. If that one was at Rollag in 2012. I was thinking it had straighter sheet metal, but could be wrong. That was 14 years ago!

    Reminds me of the green either H or M farmall at Rollag. As it came through the parade the announcer said " here comes the smoothest-running JD you'll ever hear"!

    Versatile motor mounts

    I needed something similar for mounting "pucks" for the transfer case on a 66 Chevy. I ended up cutting slices off of a boat trailer roller. Worked well, they are tough and cheap.

    You can get a chain breaker.

    What happened to pickups??

    10 speed automatics have been in Fords since 2017 and Chevy/GMC since early 2019. Dodge still uses an 8 speed in most pickups. The gear ratios are close so you really don't even notice the shift points that much.

    What happened to pickups??

    Cash for clunkers was a horrible program. It screwed up the used car market and took affordable used cars off of the lot. But that was in 2009. Most of the cars we destroyed under that program were from the 80s and 90s. I don't think it's affecting the late model used pickup market today. A...

    What happened to pickups??

    I did a quick search for Silverado/Sierra 2500 single cab 8 foot box for sale and came with exactly 1 advertised for sale in the state of ND. That was a new, 2026 GMC in Jamestown ND at the GM dealer there. That's not saying there aren't others that didn't show up in ads, but that was the only...

    Longest pocket tape measure I have ever seen

    I have some Komelon tapes, but in 25 foot size. I've had a white and black one for years and recently TSC had a 2 pack of the yellow and black ones for $15. They've been good to me. I also have a chrome Stanley along with a yellow one and a green one. None really seem any better or worse than...
