    Mack trucks in the arctic

    My god that music was awesome. I have a couple of T-6 training videos that must be from the same narrator.

    M925A1 Stuck on my own property. DOH!!! Winch to the rescue!

    Wow, there were like 6 posts since I started writing my novella above. Nice article on the hold power (and from West Marine!) Ha!

    M925A1 Stuck on my own property. DOH!!! Winch to the rescue!

    Camels on wheels... Lol. That sand anchor looks like the pull-pal, but still like a DanForth. I know 'jpg' used one on a sandbar, very similar to the way these guys used it. I am in Colorado with NO anchor, and no West Marine around. Guess I could get one, and do the stress test, as I see a...

    M925A1 Stuck on my own property. DOH!!! Winch to the rescue!

    This is a pretty intriguing topic to me, so I googled the anchors and off roading. About seven different forums all came up with the Danforth idea, but not one of them tested it. Not one had definitive proof that it worked. Most said the pull-pal was great but bitched about the money...

    Bumper markings

    FNG question here, I don't understand the issue the Marshall had with the marking. Was his point that any military unit bumper markings were on it? Is that illegal? Is it a problem with it being active?

    Got a Deuce! '62 M35A1

    Yup, I saw the pict and recognized it. It's filled with deep gravel, and people do quickly stop in there. Never seen them go too far up. There's a couple in the area. The bad part is that some guys can't go through the tunnel 2 miles beforehand and have to use the pass (mostly hazardous...

    Michigan Titling M923A2

    The thing of value in this thread is watching Zout's change of avatars. He always makes good choices.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Nice paint! I was considering doing this in tan with the black accents. Anyone got one like that and a pict to share?

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Changed the front tire with the spare, it was a very bumpy ride, and had uneven wear that wasn't going to get better on its own. Got to use the tire davit, and put the Roboimpact to good use. Man those tires are a bear. Hassled with the CTIS to make it fit and finally won. The only time we...

    New member in OKC Oklahoma!

    Welcome from Colorado! Storing temporarily in friends farm steel building, but evaluating "Storage Condo's". Definitely not the cheapest way to go. I have even looked at farmland, and building a steel building, but man is that a challenge with zoning and covenants (yes even on farmland)...

    Ladder for M373 trailers

    I just ran across this ladder at Sportman's Guide. I have no idea how it would hook up to anything on a M923 as it's WAY too short. Does anyone know how this would work? It says: All-aboard! Here's a safe, fast and easy way to move up in the world! Designed to swiftly load troops / gear into...

    New from Colorado

    I have checked out the MVCC. I was drooling over that M923A2 too. Nice to meet the owner! Still gathering info and reading about rust removal, paints, manuals and a general romp through the threads to learn all I can. I've already started the list of needs, and I don't even have it yet. I...

    New from Colorado

    Hello all, joined a bit ago when gathering info on a M925A2. Found one locally. He has a green one, and I was looking for a tan one. He had another in back, and just had gotten it from Kansas. Still awaiting the title and a couple of repairs and I will be a member of the inner circle...
