Awesome, now did you say you dragged it home or drove it home? �� And lets see some pics.

Any updates on this project? Or forget the updates and post pics.

Awesome, thanks for the offer. There is one thing...she is a little lonely so maybe you could acquire a HET so they could play together:D

Yeah, expensive fuel bill for that trip but it bought great memories. Plus the HET is awesome and fun to drive. Believe me, I've spent more money way less important things. I think that fuel stop was in Utah. Really wish diesel had dropped more...(so does my Visa card).

I especially like that front bumper.

I have a fuel sponsor as well...American Express! Here was one of the smaller fills.

I'd like to get my hands on TM 2320-10/11 Supplement 1 but it seems elusive. Anyone have any leads or is it time to call the Oshkosh 1.800 number.

Just wondering if you found any documentation on how to operate the trailer?

Here is one of the smaller fill ups. A couple pics from the chase vehicle. Here are a couple vehicles to give the M1070 size perspective. The MK14 trailer beside the HET.

Thanks. Not sure on the mileage. I decided it might be better not to keep track but it couldn't have been pretty. One (very) rough estimate put it around 3 MPG so I decided to stop there. It's an awesome rig to drive and driving was still cheaper than having it shipped.

Here are a few pictures from the trip. The M1070 sits pretty high and it's an interesting feeling looking down into the cabs of big rigs.

The trailer was in a little bit of a tight spot so we figured it was a good excuse to play with err... verify the winches work. The M1070 has 3 winches, 2 - 55,00 lbs main winches and a 3,000 lbs winch. The small winch is used for paying out the big winch as the line gets heavy pretty quick...

Good eye - I got it from him a few weeks before the recovery.

I also scored a MK14 trailer which I decided to tow for the trip. It took a while to get it rigged up, especially the airlines (which were a challenge since the MK14 isn’t really a trailer) but thanks to M920, we got them working. Member M920 fabricated the tow bar attachment. It's hard to see...

In the 1000 mile trip, I only passed one vehicle - lol. It was passing in slow motion.

The truck will hibernate for the winter in Montana while I head back to Alaska. I'm not sure I'm up for the 2200 mile trip to Alaska and I know my VISA wouldn't be happy about it.

I have always wanted a HET since I first laid eyes on them and was excited when they started being surplused. The prices of the M1070’s kept dropping and dropping and I figured I couldn’t pass up the opportunity. I decided to sell some other toys (this thread helped push me over the edge -...

Hello, I need a tow bar transported from Chama, New Mexico to 30mins south of Barstow, California. It can be attached to a pallet and weighs between 250-300lbs. If anyone is heading that way, it would be a great help. I am willing to pay for your services. Thanks!

This is for ATV's but it might give you a few ideas. http://www.j-wheelz.com/

I got one as well, asking for some media player file upgrade. I closed it but if I get it again, I'll post a screen shot.
