    Free trailer.

    I have bid on a trl in Fort Drum and I have paid for it. It is too far for me to go for one trl. I have papers and paid documents for it. If someone wants it, PM me. It is a Chassis Trl M103A3. I wanted to get 3 to make it worth the trip, but I failed to get 2 more. Phil

    8 ton on a deuce?

    When I was in Viet Nam, I saw many a Deuce loaded Chuck full with crates of 155 rounds and also pulling a TRL with a full load. So it is not unusual to see a Deuce LOADED UP. Just use Common sense and CAUTION when hauling heavy loads. I hauled 6000 gallons of water in Nam with a 5ton Multifuel...
