Had to tow a Duramax.....

[apkole]

One of my subcontractors got his Duramax stuck while cleaning up the aftermath of our little snowstorm here in Grand Rapids. After working all night to clear drive and lots, I was about 3 miles from home when he called for help.



I agreed to drive back in to town to tug him out, but insisted on getting pictures of my CTD hooked to his Durastuck



Unfortunately, no camera could be found.



Ah, well, life goes on.



The sun is out, snow has stopped, and we have time to put equipment back together. What fun!!

I just seen a pretty new red one at the alignment shop with a brand new plow. The guy looked kinda peeved,come to find out he had to jack the front torsion bars up cause the front-end was bottomed out,said it was almost to the stops empty. Heavy duty my arse I still don't think I. F. S. belongs on a 3/4 or 1 ton... Doug

Got the chance to visit DTT and meet Bill Kondalay this last Tuesday. He showed me five FRIED Dura-Max Allison trannies that he is going to look at to see if He can do them better! The visit was a REAL treat.

I tried getting a duramax out of the snow. At the time I didn't know it was even a diesel. It was o degrees outside with a 35 mph wind from the north. He was shivering and really cold. I asked him why isn't your truck running? You could go in and warm up a while. He tells me that it is running. Its a quiet diesel he says. Oh a duramax I replied.
