This is a pretty substantial parade with a lot of spectators honoring our fallen. Any MVs are very welcomed. May 27, 9:00am at Smith Park, N. Main St. Parade begins at 10 and proceeds to Woodside Cemetery on S. Verity. Finishes by 11:30.
There have been MBTs sent sky high with buried IEDs, killing everyone, and this was many years ago. Shaped charges or simply enough of a charge will defeat anything. It is pure folly to believe any armor offers total protection.
I've had a 710M for 7 years. Wife loves to drive it, too, and we've maintained it properly. Had zero problems, and that includes serious off-roading in Kentucky and several long cross-country trips.

No and No. The import docs are to get it in. Once here, its here. You can keep the files for your own records, and do not forward with vehicle when sold. Those are your records. The new owner has no need for them.
Many indeed had an extra leaf added to the left side. It was not in the parts book but updates were not a regular feature. I'm referring to V-100s. V-150s were designed from the factory to have rear access and this was changed with different models. None of this justified a complete redesign of...
Off set engine is a trade off for rear access and radio operator's position and it is well worth it. Huge asset. The offset balance is not that big of a deal. The springs are balanced at production and roll-overs have never been reported as a problem. These vehicles are not hot rods and should...
