    just curious...

    Yeah, Ive seen a lot of trucks tore up from deer. Moose are really hard on a truck. We got off lucky. We were in a Kenworth T6, and all it did was knock the front fascia loose on one side, and bust up a headlamp and foglamp. We got it patched up at the next fuel stop.

    UNIMOG Camper

    There was a nice spot on The History Channel on the Unimog. Told about it's design and creation as a agricultural vehicle to help rebuild Germany.

    Welcome

    Opie, there was a yard near here somewhere that had a few Deuces in it, but the guy was supposed to be super pricey. I'm thinking it is in Buchanan. I'll try and find out more info, and post it up.
