I like that truck. It's sexy with it's big shoes on. After seeing a 5 ton, why would you want a HMMWV??? Why not go for the gusto!

Get satin finish. I painted my 1101 with satin black accents and you can literally see the blue in the black because of the satin finish. It is sharp. Get a sample, if they will mix a sample that small if you want to try it out.

Interesting chart. Thanks for posting it.

https://youtu.be/uOCmXGN4GOQ Some real country music for you, 74M35A2, by a genuine heavy metal artist. (Staind lead singer, Aaron Lewis) You may experience some conflicting emotions. This is normal for a man your age going through this. Just let it happen.

Technoweenie, do you get better fuel economy with two stroke oil? I have heard a few guys use it but not put too much research into it. What are the benefits other than lubrication and sound deadening?

Somehow “Thou art not listening to country music” does not have the same effect. :)

That ain’t country.

I was wondering, can you even hear it while driving at highway speeds?

If you can afford the X-12, you can afford the garage space to swap it out. Let’s get this beast rolling! Have it shipped down here to Texas. Was 70 yesterday and looks like the same today. We have the labor and I’ll oversee the transfer, make sure they don’t put it in backwards. No unions...

I still say do the, X-12 Cummins. https://youtu.be/qKha5HWvbAo Im sure it would drop right in. Let’s start a crowdfunding page.

‘Scuses. When will they end?

I had a guy at Home Depot wait for me in the parking lot. He just wanted to reminisce about them. Had so many good things to say. He wanted one, but didn’t have the scratch to buy one. Even back when they weren’t too expensive.

I think I recognize some of those pics from ex-po! I go by the same name over there. They don’t seem to have the same affinity for MV’s as we do. They do like to use the trailers as soon as the pintle hitch is removed (too noisy for them, funny, It doesnt seem to bother me). They like them just...

Very nice. I think the black accents really make those trucks look great. Ironically, that is what is on my list this week. Paint the tan truck! Now, whether I get to it or not is another matter.

Me too! ... Definitely! ... Someday! You are right that it takes some serious scratch to build one. You better have your plans in mind and material list priced out, or you are in for a shock if you just dive in and build willy nilly. I started build on an adventure trailer from scratch. I went...

I know guys on adventure portal make 101’s into adventure trailers. Anyone else, besides the one above, do the same? I have plans to, but that means little, as I have plans for a time machine as well. Although, I am much, much, more apt to get to this first since I have actually purchased parts...

Yeah, that was the batch I bought 3 out of. And then they were gone, except for the odd $1k+ ones.

That’s awesome. They can handle a lot. Except .... One I bought one out of RRAD with a nice, well made, shop built steel topper. It was pretty cool! BUT! If you ever pulled it empty, do not go around turns very fast. The top weighs more than the trailer bed and if you hit a bump, at a fast...

They really make great adventure/camping trailers. You have done a wonderful job with yours. Some don’t like taking one and modifying it to where it doesn’t look “military” any more. Personally, that’s why I buy these things. They are fantastic platforms to build on. I respect the purist who...

Well done on both fronts.
