Hey it's worked so far....Seriously though. We passed a few weigh stations and several LEO's. I would rather know the law than be ignorant and press my luck any more.
Ok so what happens lets just say if you were going on a recovery and used your m109 to towbar a new (to you) M35 home...lets say from Va to NC on Interstate 95/85 south Today?
It may have already been said but how about some newbie stickys with answers to common questions..(like how to use the Search featre) mpg/top speed :-D

Understanding that the question was to cardoctor my take is if it is direct injection (into the cylinder) you probably don't want to use wvo unless it has been processed to biodiesel and washed. The coking occurs when the hot injector has wvo fused around it The injectors dont get as hot in an...
He's just plannin for the "zombie apycolypse". I too have looked at armoring my 109 but not from hi powered rifles more handgun and maybe 223 Probably best to make mounting points and have plate ready if it ever comes you and a friend could hang them/ bolt them whenever you felt the need. That...
