    buy from dealer or owner?

    You remember the motto of a big car dealer there in SLC- 'We back up every car we sell". I always thought "so what- does that mean you back them off the car hauler...and then sell them???" They either have a written warranty or give you something in writing. Otherwise it's just a fart....

    buy from dealer or owner?

    I think any way that get's you the truck you want- dealer, private or GL. Make a list of 'must haves' for your new truck- then go out and see who has one close to your list. Be flexible, but if you see something you like- who cares about a little money. You can always go back to work and make...

    1100 Mile Recovery/First Deuce

    700 miles to go. Very nice truck and running great. We all jumped in and went thru the truck this AM. She's tight and running well. Did a 'sprag check' on a dirt test pile- sprag is working fine. And I want that power steering. You meet the nicest people in a deuce... Neal & Jerry- good luck...

    Crude oil as fuel for the Deuce?

    That doesn't sound free to me. Gold is free, too. You just have to find it, mine it & refine it. But it's FREE :-D

    M35A3 Owners, I have some questions, thanks!

    Hi Thomas, welcome to SS. My thoughts: There's a problem with your idea- it's not possible to get a mechanical inspection on the GL trucks. You can take a visual, but there is no way to run a diagnostic on the motor or tranny. The good news is- the motor and trans will most likely be in...

    1100 Mile Recovery/First Deuce

    Recovery update- bobbed4x4 & wingman rolled into Mesquite last night about 7:30 or so. Truck looks great and running fine. I really like those tires... We put them up in the enlisted quarters- and after a quick PT and inspection, we'll get them back on the road. Good troops.

    Doh! moment

    I took off from Ft McCoy in my -A3 in low. It was my first time driving an A3, and I knew it would be slow, but 25 down the highway was freakin' me out. If you've been on that road, you know there is no room to pull off for about a mile, and I had traffic lined up behind me. I thought- what a...

    GL Auctions Extending?

    First- you should read the terms of an auction before you bid- 2cents Have you ever been to a real auction? They don't end the auction at a certain time- they end the auction when the bidding stops- don't like the price- don't bid any further . Now that's out of the way, welcome to the dark...

    New owner of M35A3, How do I....

    Here's something to watch for and maybe do a little prevention on an M35A3. Maccus discovered this on my A3 after we did a 700 mile recovery from Ft McCoy to Custer, SD. The photos show the lower 'boost' pipe crossing over the head and making contact. Either some tweaking the connections to get...
