Ethonal is even worse. Huge scam.
If more producers made biodiesel the price would come down, but you generally have only one large or two small producers in a certain area.
You can see what I was wearing in the last photo, it was cold! XM818 had B100- and didn't have a problem. I think the...
Awesome advice. One that will surely distroy this hobby when some newbie follows it, and broadsides a school bus when the brakes fail halfway home.
No insurance, no tags, impersonating Military personnel. Our hobby and the supply of surplus trucks will vaporize overnight. If you are going to...
Lol Thanks Dave! I have been checking for the pics and just saw they were up!
I might have to bring parts next year, a week and I might have enough time to break something important!
Yes, the fact that it was in an older heavy built simple military rig definitely saved you from more serious harm.
But the fact that it was an older heavy built simple military rig helped put you in harms way!
I see it as the truck broke even. It helped cause it, but it then saved you the...
I am very glad that you are ok and not seriously hurt.
However it sounds like a little PM or at least popping the hood and looking around prior to used the truck might have prevented it all together. Even though it is basically just a 1980's pickup, it is still a MV. Pretrips should be...
I had the EXACT same problem with my XM818. It is the oil cooler for sure. Not a bad job, and I recommend replacing the hoses while you have it all apart.

Sigh...

With the license I can legally burn anything and everything in my trucks. I simply must report my usage and pay the...
Next year several of us are planning to arrive the Friday night/sat morning prior to that actual rally.
Yep, you caught me Dave. It was a stuffed pig. Or at least she was at feeding time!
Lol you guys are too much! thanks for the pics!
She really really was sad to miss it. I'm glad the Rally is being moved next year, because this conferance she had to go to looks like it is shaping up to be an annual thing. I don't think she could stand missing another year.
PS it wasn't that...
ARYankee,
I did want to post ahead of time that we would be making the trip. It was at best a 24hr notice thing. I would have also been inclined to move stuff back and forth on the SS freight train for a little extra $$$ as well, but it just didn't work out.
Thanks for the offer and it may get...
