    That is what I call having won the lottery. The speeding thing is usually always and LOC/LOR once the word gets to the Commander. And as life goes, you get to make up by maintaining your vehicles. I', a little envious...

    Yeah, the manufacture code on the tires read 4608, so they were made Oct/Nov 2008. Only 1 tire has weather cracking, the other 3 are good. According to the GP pictures anyway. I'll know more when the truck is here.

    That is what I heard, and expect as well. The pics on GP don't show too much dry rot, but the manufacture date is from 2008. Bummer For the next year I will most likely keep the truck on my acreage and an occasional short road trip. When I am ready for excursions, I'll have to replace them. I...

    Go figure, I may have made a boo boo by sending the money ahead of delivery. But, if the company doesn't come through with the expectations, I'll just bash them here on this forum and everywhere else... :cool: Many have shipped with them, I read it all over, but for now I'll keep their name...

    Thanks! Over the years I've found forums like this to be invaluable beyond estimation, both for the technical and advice as well as safety and experience of other riders/owners/operators. The wife and I are also on a certain motorcycle and trike board. I appreciate the welcome, looking forward...

    Pics are coming... I've been reading this forum for the past few months and already expected this ;) I don't like any of the GP stock photos, so once it's here, I'll post. Lee

    Hi All, new owner here with some questions (of course... :cool: ) First off, some info. I purchased a 1999 M1123 about 6 weeks ago on GP. The EUC just came back and I opted to look for a hauler myself. Ended up with a reputable company, but they are charging the cost upfront before pickup or...
