Suggestions for hauling Computer Garage from Beaverton, ORto Yates Center, KS?

Rumor has it that Gary Hildebrand may have mentioned these words: [snip] For those who think we're getting into a pissing match, I see this as a serious, but amicable discussion.... That said... Those techniques are great, unless it's a 500HP engine you're trying to get started... I've been around my dad and helped him start, fix, grease, change tires, etc. his trucks for several *million* miles as a vehicle that "if it don't run, we don't eat..." Trying to get that big of an engine that *doesn't* want to start takes a *lot* more than a hairdryer & a squirt of WD40... [ Oh, did I mention the 4 *big honkin'* batteries? ;-) ] I never said diesels are bad -- I just said that they don't start for $*it in the cold, especially if they have a big engine... And the thread started about people who'd prolly never run a diesel before, and would only run it for a weekend or maybe a week - by the time the started learning the quirks, they'd have gotten a *big* education, then arrived at their destination. Oh, and if you wanna pull hindsight into the fray, the biggest reason we aren't all burning ethanol/methanol is because Congress said "it would take 20 years to change the infrastructure" during the big oil crunch of '73... The work would have been finished almost 10 years ago, and it pollutes one helluva lot less than diesel or gasoline... There's nothing better than waking up, getting out of the cab of your truck at the truckstop at 6 a.m., and taking in a big breath of diesel fumes -- still one of my favorite smells. (Honest - I'm not joking!) but that's why most truckers from the northern parts either 1) shut down their truck for 2 months, or 2) stick to the southern states...

If at first you don't succeed, nuclear warhead disarmament should *not* be your first career choice.
