At least we know that bridge will handle 20K now!

151 - - You forgot to mention complicated recovery of a 5-ton with 2 deuces.......

OR, deep water fording

 

[vinny-socom1]

I don't think we are quite ready for the history channel yet, maybe Pete will qualify for it.

but I like the enthusiasm!

Vinny - I'm coming over for the day with the M1009 so I don't need a camp site. Please put me down for 2 adult dinners and 1 child dinner. I'm looking forward to it!

Scratches? What scratches?

I just come for the steaks. I'll help with whatever I can. If we put 5tontiny in the lead, we know errbody else will fit.

Vinny, who took that shot in your avatar? That is a mighty fine looking deuce in the background.

 

[the buddah]

hey vinny donna and me wont be able to attend this event as the week-end before we are attending the perry ride withe the ffcmvpa

 

[bwang]

Hi Vinny, I've heard your name mentioned before at Nathan's shop in pinellas. Thanks for the welcome!

Yeah plenty of pics: The Biofuel Crusader

I'm documenting my rebuild and upgrade. Driving it from California I was struck by another driver and I rolled over, so she ain't pretty but will definitely be a sweet ride when I'm done building her up.

Oddball, I'm shooting for $3.80 a gallon or somewhere around $.20 less than Dino-diesel.

I vote for tight and nasty, mud, scratches, broken axles, getting stuck, winching, deep water fording, bonfire, beer, BBQ wild hog, (let me know how many people to feed and ill go shoot some pigs) NO Mosquitos please (haha) and lots of Kung Pao chicken diesel exhaust.

I've got a new to me winch and a new pull pal land anchor I want to get to try out.

Oh and I was once upon a time a reenactor so if you're serious about getting some of those loud blanks, firefights, and awesome footage let me know I'm sure there are plenty local reenactor a who would glady join us.

Just wondering if errbody that went to the Ga. rally has recovered yet. I saw no pics of the Florida faction other than Phil. Nice tires by the way Phil! Vinny, gotta cook for the Florida HOG rally the last weekend in Oct. so the grill will nbe seasoned and ready to go. Who's coming to this event? Speak up people!!!

 

[mmeridith]

I would like to come out but I still have a lot of work to do on the deuce to get things water-proofed for fording operations. Need to run a draft tube & AC tube to the air filter housing, plug various vent lines, etc... She's only been on dry ground since I've had her.

 

[caliber1]

Well, ladies and gents. Didn't pull off the road, but came up 471 from Lakeland yesterday. You look into the trees on both sides and see water, pretty much from 98 all the way to SR50. The main grades goin in looked dry off 471, but the smaller "goat paths" were water immediately.
