No, not at all, I haven't had the time to travel to work on the thing to get it in pulling order.

Kind of. Local kid found it in Kentucky and posted it on Facebook when he got it home. He was a customer's son, so we knew him. He wanted way too much for it a couple months ago, but now that it needs a radiator, some suspension work, and new batteries, he was ready to sell it for what it's actually worth.


We knew where it went when it left us in 1995, but went there looking for it about 2008ish and that guy couldn't remember where he sold it. Funny it came 10 miles from home after 35 years!

I hadn’t seen it or any videos, but I didn’t make it to as many pulls as I’d have liked this year. Hopefully see it out next year! I assume you are storing the truck somewhere?

Speaking of not making it out, I was supposed to be at the Enderle tonight……but life happens haha!

We went, cabover Volvo from Finland won every class even the ones it wasn’t entered in. Had to hook sleds together to even slow him down.

Just no match for those European horsepowers.

I wish we had truck pulling here, but for whatever reason it didn’t catch on this far west. I also wish we had Volvos but for whatever reason they didn’t catch on here either.

There is a whole pile of red Freightliner COEs with single rear axles like that where the trailer shop used to be at I-35 and highway 51. Someone must have bought them for pennies from the oil field. No idea what's under the hood on 'em.

I put a crower style clutch in it, that was a chore in itself to get it to work, then the last go around it took out a HG and possibly a valve.

I haven’t even tore it down to look.

I passed a Euro spec cab over north of Nashville on Monday. I wasn't close enough to see what brand and it had either paint or vinyl on it. Is someone importing these trucks now? Even had wheel covers on it.

Which offer? To help him pull his head out of his ass? That euro pos would choke on the sweet smell of free American air.

Nikola EV truck fraud: End of the road for NKLA stock as founder is found guilty of deceiving investors?

Trevor Milton, founder of American electric vehicle producer Nikola Motor Company (NKLA), charged with fraud worth $1bn, has been been found guilty of misleading investors for his own personal benefit.

In 2020, after a report by Hindenberg Research accused Milton of “an intricate fraud”, the company lost more than 50% of its market value. This has also caused Nikola to lose out on valuable partnerships with the likes of General Motors (GM) and BP (BP).

Milton has since cut ties with the company and was formally indicted in 2021 by US federal protesters. Earlier this week Milton was found guilty of three out of the four counts he was charged with.
