    NV Insurance in NV

    That's weird, I had no problem insuring my M813 with them. It didn't need to be stored inside and they were really friendly. Included free membership in their classic car club, which came with 100 miles free towing. They only asked the mileage, engine hours, years I've been driving, that it...

    Wife wants me to do the unthinkable due to the Florida DMV debacle!

    The only issue Mass DMV had with my M813 title was the "body type" they don't accept "other" anymore. It seems that three sides and a tailgate make it a Pickup...a ten ton pickup and the old title had white outs and mismatched dates. Still have to pass inspection.

    My Ten Ton Toy M813

    This is the M813 I bought from JD in September. Been wrenching on her for a few months. Solved some problems, created a few more and although she's not on the road yet, I'm having a blast. But everyone wanted pics so here we go. She started life with the Air Force in Georgia, was transferred...
