Them Texans

[BreaksEverything]

The National Transportation Safety Board recently divulged they had funded a project with the US auto makers for the past five years. The NTSB covertly funded a project whereby the auto makers were installing black boxes in four wheel drive pickup trucks in an effort to determine, in fatal accidents, the circumstances in the last 15 seconds before the crash.



They were surprised to find in 49 of the 50 states the last words of drivers in 61. 2% of fatal crashes were, "Oh, Poop!"



Only the state of Texas was different, where 89. 3% of the final words were, "Hey Y'all, hold my beer and watch this!"



it's a joke , don't be hunting me down now

Hey BET, ever heard the difference in a "fairy tale" and a "Texas tale"? A fairy tale starts off with "Once upon a time", a Trxas tale starts off with "You sumbiches ain't gonna believe this".

Either that is the biggest tow behind sprayer I have ever seen or somebody has an awesome flame thrower. Diesel pump and a 500 gal tank of ???? very cool cargo.

Peter,

Good eyes. That's actually our "Hydrostatic testing unit" Good for 15,000PSI, and ~28 gallons/minute (. 625Bbls/min)



That's actually a 1,000 gallon tank, we usually carry water in it, but most of the time it's 3% SaltWater. The SaltWater we carry is heavier than the normal 8. 3Lb/Gallon drinking water, the % of water can actually weigh the water up to 10Lbs/gal. and we can easily add 500-1000 more pounds by carrying glycol (antifreeze) on board for those chilly days (~65* and below)



Empty of water, the Truck/Trailer combo puts us grossing right at 27,500 pounds.



I noticed Breakseverything states in his sig he has srtacks outside the box. That's why I put that picture up.

BTW, The motor is an older 2-Cycle Supercharged, non-turbo Detroit 6-71 rated for 215 or 250HP.

MORE TEXAN RULES:

1. It's called the Supermarket, not the grocery store.



2. It's called a Buggy. You push it at the supermarket. Not called a cart.



3. When you check out, you put your groceries in paper sacks. yes, sacks. You call them bags, we call them sacks.



4. If you refer to the first cool front as "Good Chili Weather"



5. your newspaper covers the sports in 2 pages. Ours covers sports in 2 pages, and football in 16 more pages.



6. You know what part of the state someone is from when they smile.



7. You call it a convenience store. We call it an Ice House.



8. When we run errands, it is normal to leave the truck running with no one in it.



9. We measure distance in minutes. Not Miles. Get used to it.



10. When we want a soda, we say we want a Coke. It does not matter if it is pepsi, Dr. Pepper, or Any other brand. When you come here, remember this one. People will laugh at you if you tell them you want a pop.



11. You know where to put the apostrophe in Y'ALL. It is not YA'LL, or HEY ALL..... it's Y'ALL



Maybe these will enlighten y'all a little bit.
