Fireman, too bad you are not from Baltimore. The HUN callsign would be perfect!
I am preparing for field day at W3C from the Creation Festival in PA. We 'll then volunteer for a week in a very rural area with a camp in musical festival for 50 to 75 thousand friends!

...and I followed up today driving it to work. Stopped at the scales just in case. The officer came out and asked if I had some time, he wanted to look at it. We had a nice chat, his dad had one in Puerto Rico and they used to drive it all over. Oh yeah, you don't have to stop at the scales with...
If you want MD Historic tags you must have collectors insurance. Comes with a bunch of strings attached. PM me if you want more info, I just got my MD Historic tags this week.
I agree, free fuel is not free. You really have to spend the time and set up a good bulk filtering system (off truck) and probably invest in the spin on fuel filter mod for the truck too. Sourcing free fuel is not easy. The regional fat processors are paying restaurants for their WVO. I have...

My son and I had a great time there Friday afternoon. Got a few things for the deuce including a windshield and air hose, some Jerry cans (which we used in Lima on the way back :-( ) and other stuff. We will be back next year.
I actually ended up with a 2750W inverter and an AC unit that runs at 800W. I mounted the inverter on top of the right whell well and connected to the radio buss. The ACis where the spare was and the exhaust is through the side panel and uses the separation between the inner and outer panels...
Found out how heavy it is when I ran it out of fuel coming back from Findlay. We were 1/4 mile from the gas station. Thanks to two Good Samaritans we got it pushed out of rush hour traffic. Refueled, changed the fuel filter, primed and go. Got some good stuff at Findlay including a Jerry Can...
