@matchizen Looks good. Yes, cold air is harder to push! We are trying to see what we can do. The spread withe aero and non aero larger in winter. Wrote here about the trend we found. Have a good one.

The month of February has concluded, and Unit 807 is at shop, for Brothers to wash and service. This new generation Volvo VNL 2.47 I-Torque is outfitted with several advanced features, including AirDog, Flowbelow, Dr. Preload, and Centramatic wheel balancers. Our Advance aero tankers, combined with Hot Shot's Secret fuel treatment and additives, have yielded impressive efficiency metrics. After covering over 100,000 kilometers, since new, the trucks are performing well with a 7% idle rate, operating at a gross weight of 63.5 mt (140,000 lb) and maintaining a cruise speed of 97 km/h (60 mph). Here are the performance numbers for February: - Imperial (UK) MPG: 8.2 - USA (US) MPG: 6.8 - Litres per 100 km (L/100km): 34.5 (approximately 34.6 rounded) - Kilometres per litre (km/L): 2.9 Strong showing for February, how was yours!

Are there any bread makers out here on the internet land ? Why is rye bread the way it is. It’s rather inconvenient to toast in a standard toaster. Can we not do it , in normal bread shape ?

@lmasse729 Yeah the kubotas look so square not very nice I figure . The new b models have the nicest cabs it seems . Was that a c362nh ? Was there problems or just to big ? I looked into thoes as well . I did hear the fans explode . Wasn’t sure if it was common .

@matchizen I think they’re a better machine than the Kubotas, had a used NH and it was like a mini dozer so traded into this new one and it’s been great. No experience on cat/Deere/bobcat but also significantly cheaper. Going in for service tomorrow on it tho, engine fan exploded today 🤷🏼‍♂️

Help! '22Case 580. Random problem. Starter doesnt respond when attempting to start. Only way to get it running is to jump solenoid at Starter. We had it shop twice and starts consistently. So we can't diagnose the problem. Any ideas component or connection that could be failing?

@matchizen @RitchieBros I know if you tell them to fuck off, it doesn’t phase them at all. It’s actually quite impressive.

@Denny2point0 We did it a few times before had big unload augers . It worked pretty good only thing I didn’t like was . When it’s getting full you better run like a bastard and almost fall trying to shut it off in time other wise it’s over loaded . Other thing is it’s kinda a pain to clean out
