    'Storm is ready to go to Houston!

    BTW, the pic of the damaged cable was the damage resulting with the trailer operating without stoplights or signals. We trimmed up the excess cable and got all the lights properly working again. The pic of the singled out rim is when we looked at an inner nut that had come free from the inner...

    Did you drive or ship your MV when purchased? Please read...

    DB, I've never had any problems with my deuce from Johnny Law. I've blown by scales and many interceptors have passed me without as much as a second glance.

    ok, egt, boost, turning up the fuel, and lockouts and power

    Kenny, My son does the same when I'm moving my truck around the backyard. Only difference is he likes to watch from where Mommy is standing outside the truck when she's spotting me in to a trailer or something. He knows never to walk or run around the truck especially when I have her running...

    a couple of pics of my deuce

    JR, Nice snag! Good to see it's going to a good owner! I'd definitely keep that one red for sure considering how close you are to Ground Zero. It would make a nice parade truck for any honorariums in NYC I think.

    Who has my tires ?

    SG, Yes I fully encourage everyone to harass to the fullest extent the brokers!!!!!!!!!!! Those S.O.B.s take 60% or more of what you are paying for themselves and the driver is left to fend for himself after the company cut, fuel, truck necessities, food and so on. I know this first hand. I have...

    Need a deuce' alternator?

    LTRN, Thanks for the number! I misplaced his number. Yeah, he's VERY reasonable! I got my 109 box from him. Drove from Evansville, IN over, lifted off the bed, lifted on the box and drove away all for $800 installed! (not including fuel)
