Well that's a bum dingger.

Taking the more easterly route. Going up Hwy 59 to Texarkana then up I-49. Stopping in Nacogdoches for the evening. 300 mile day with some heavy manual labor in there. I be beat. Mike, you gonna make the KAMO rally this year?

Mission accomplished. Here's to the south Houston homeschool folks. Hope it helps them out with one less thing to worry about in their time of need. 167 boxes. Time for food, then a few hours back north today.

Road buddies. 50 miles to go.

Well Dallas sucked. Tread separation during rush hour. Fun fun.

Just made The Lone Star State :)

Made it to Muskogee OK before sanity said stop for the night. Consecutive 20 hour days came a lot easier 15 odd years ago. Trucks been happy so far. Except for the temp gauge or sending unit crapping out finally. The trooper who pulled us over was really nice. First time in my life a officer...

Rolling out now. Prayers are welcome.

Mostly loaded now. Mostly ended up with homeschool curriculum material. Which is still good. 108 boxes so far and picking up more tonight. Julia is a blessing. I doubt I could have been come up with this crazy thing on my own, let alone put it together.

Trucks finally getting loaded out now. Collected enough so far to fill the bed about 3/4. Supposed to be picking up more tomorrow and Tuesday. Hopefully that'll finish up. Started getting the trailer ready as well. Spare tires, fuel, food, tools, and parts as I have for the 818. Which is not as...

A friend of ours has a local contact with a warehouse in the area. That was the first thing I said. Must have a home before going.

So as many of us here have big hearts and like to help other in need, my better half decided that we're running a load to Houston. Year or so ago I put a deuce bed on the truck, so I'm not pulling a big trailer at least. So with barely 2 weeks notice, I've got to get a rig ready for 1400 mile...

Thank you Dave. We're looking to trade our crew cab M35a2 for a M923a2/a3 or preferably a M925a2/a3. If anybody is interested, let me know and I can provide the fine details on it.

Do we have a sale/trade thread going for this year yet?

I use a slide hammer bead breaker and a duck bill hammer. My second wheel that was so gunked up. I laid out deflated, with the flange side up for a few days. Soaked it down with soapy water a couple times a day. The bead broke free with ease (love the bead breaker). Then it's a matter of slowly...

Couple weeks back I used the 818 to help a old boy pull a lime truck out of his field. Buried deep in the mud. Finally got his truck out. Figured out a few days later that I thoroughly trashed a tire. Stripped it clean to the belts on the inside. Annoying, but not a big deal. Crap happens...

We'll be there. The usual herd in tow.

Couple of shut down solenoid questions. After reading a bunch of old threads, what actually shuts the engine down? Is it the main power switch or the ignition switch? When we bought the truck, I smoked what I thought was the PCB. Been using the pull lever evet since. Got a new PCB over the...

Made it home towing the deuce. Had a great time everyone. Can't wait till next year. Hopefully we can get more people to show up.

Could get a bolster trailer & a 109 box. Combine the two, & poof! Custom horsey trailer. Look pretty cool. This does get pricey quickly if you're not able or inclined to do most if not all the work yourself.
