Yeah, I wasn't sure if it was the kind of thing I'd find a knock-off of in a truckstop or something, but I've got no idea where to look. I do already have one, but would like another if I could find one for a semi-reasonable price.

Yeah no they're 100% a dealer-specific item AFAIK. A little more looking around and it seems like they might not be too badly priced at the dealer though, I'm seeing new ones around for sub-$100 prices.
(you want the gold one, it indicates the truck is 100% Mack parts- though seeing a gold bulldog makes me shriek in horror because their drivetrain parts are nightmare fuel)
If you don't find one by the time you head home I can keep an eye out for you, shipping on something that size can't be too bad to the UK.

in TVIV and just had to share it. It's almost too beautiful to exist in this world.

Just saw that today at a gathering of friends (science-fiction nerds.) It goes to some weird places, doesn't it?

Math chat: math likes me. I took AP Calc in high school, then again in college (where a couple concepts that didn't click in high school finally did) and through to Diff. Eq. (EE track - never finished. Probably should have went ME.) Oddly, Statics and Dynamics kicked my rear end. I kept nearly blowing the tests, even though I did well on the homework. Engineering statistics was not bad. Completely hated Engineering Economy, i.e. Accounting For Engineers. there's software to take care of that asinine poo poo.

Not five miles from my door is a 5 guys, on the other side of the street is In N Out burger. Living in Utah does have its perks.

We're pretty addicted to Smash Burger though. That place has an excellent burger.

Dallas is good on that front, too. There's a 5 Guys, Smashburger, and In-N-Out all within lunch distance of my workplace. Twisted Root near the house. I wasn't all that impressed with In-N-Out, certainly not up to the hype that surrounded it's opening here. Good enough, but not godlike. Smashburger is awesome. Twisted Root is very good. % guys - need to visit again, and not get the fries. After the burger and them I was too full and it soured the experience.

Yeah 5 Guys fries are a group affair. A small will feed 2-3 easily, a large can feed like 6.

I never get fries there when I'm alone (or from any burger place, really), but they are drat good with some malt vinegar.

You shared it with a dick.

I'm sorta screwed when it comes to burger lunchtime, all my friends prefer thin shoestring fries so they all insist on going to Smashburger or Freddy's when it's a group affair. I prefer 5 guys for the fries alone. The burgers are all good to me, but fuckin' A give me thick soggy fries by the bag full and I'm in heaven. No 5 Guys near my house though so lunchtime during the week is my only option.

Do any of you guys have and/or like Freddy's? drat good burgers and the frozen custard is super tasty too.

Last weekend I downgraded a pair of old pair of jeans to work clothing only to realize just how baggy the 501s I had been wearing to work on the house and in the garage were and how much the bagginess limited my freedom of movement. Of course, they were thin so I promptly ripped a hole in the knee :(

Any of you guys have any suggestions for a pair of work pants/jeans that are trim such that they don't get in the way but NOT skinny and are thick enough that they can hold up some hard work?

I wear rock climbers' jeans. loving awesome flexibility for working on cars and getting into small spaces, but look good too. They've got a clever gusset that means you can basically do the splits in them.

I also wear them to work, to go trekking, to fly in, to the pub... Perhaps I need more than two pairs of the same jean.

I guess you aren't being a fibber. From the NWS: "Snow. The snow could be heavy at times. High near 30. Northeast wind 10 to 15 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New snow accumulation of 6 to 10 inches possible."

Thankfully we recently went to four 10 hour days at work, and I chose to have mondays off!!

'Winter' tires going on the VW tomorrow. Going with full tread Dunlop Direzza's that have been sitting in the garage for ~6 months. Hope we don't get much snow this year because those tires will be useless and I'll be stuck driving the 928 instead :getin:

Every time I've eaten at five guys I point out to my wife that there are not many skinny people there and if we continue to eat there we will end up like the regulars.

:stare: at those who can handle a double and fries by themselves. That's impressive. In N Out isn't something you get because they are perfectly delicious but it's a good value, it's made fast, the people working there are happier, tastes good enough, but most importantly it is NOT McDonald's. I haven't eaten at McD's, Burger King, Carl's jr, etc in well over a decade and that's okay with me.

Winter is coming and I have not fixed the blower motor in my car yet. Think the cops will take me driving faster forces more air over the heater core when everything is turned to fresh air vent and the heat on full as an excuse for speeding?

e: Now I want 5 guys, it's been a while since I've eaten there but I could pound a double all the way and a large cajun fry back when I was a fatass, probably not such a great idea now though
