DANG!! I didn't even think about that!
Man, thats sad to hear. My deuce was in line with yours a couple years ago at Frank Fort. I hope you find a nice M923.
Got to say it though.....why not keep it and just buy a M923?
Yea, I remember that. Actually, there's a few guys on here that got trucks out of that lot.
Just had got my fill of the Deuce I guess. I liked it and it was a good truck but it was just time. And, selling it will help offset the purchase of a 900 series and leave funds for other toys. I've got too many hobbies
I don't think I could sell my deuce for a newer MV, I'm too emotionally vested.
Out of all the vehicles and motorcycles I've owned I'm only attached to a 1979 Chevy truck my Dad bought new (when I was 6) and drove to work in the mines every day for about 15 years. Every Friday him or Papaw would pick me up from Moms in that truck and bring me back on Sundays. When I was about 20 Dad was going to sell it and I told him I wanted to buy it and he just gave it to me. That truck has had the engine rebuilt 3 times, trans twice and you could throw a cat through about any body panel on it. It's nothing to look at, but I'd not sell that truck for
ANY price. Way too many memories in that one. I still go just sit in it sometimes, just to sit there and remember. Nope, that's one that will never leave.
Get your money right.........there have been some really good ones coming out of Redstone lately....I got a nice LWB one last week.
There is at least one more LWB W/W truck there that hasn't been lotted yet.
Good to hear, I definitely want to get a GOOD one upfront that will be a keeper for a long time. Cry once and be done with it.
Better watch out, that guy who bought it to make it into a drill rig will be coming back for that 5 ton next, especially when he finds out the deuce is not the best setup for it.
The guy I bought my 220 from used it as a drill rig, and sold it plus his 5 M35's to update to the 800 series 5 tons.
He actually has several other 800 series 5-tons that he uses for drilling rigs. He said he was wanting to build a smaller rig and that was the reason for the Deuce purchase. He acted like he thought it would work out fine for what he had in mind for it.
