There are not that many in civilian hands. Perhaps somebody on here knows how many. When I won mine, there where something like 12 that where auctioned out of Jacksonville. I seem to remember GL had another auction not to long after that one where several more MK48's where auctioned. However...

Nice work. I am partial to the A3's too. Pete

Jim, Welcome from St Paul, MN. I have bought a truck and lots of stuff from Scott (TIE6604). He is a good guy to trust for your first truck and anything else you may need. I use my truck for personal woods work and hauling stuff. Mixing a little work and play with these big girls is a lot of...

The cargo box looks fresh and sits on new wood strips. The Davit and stack have been removed as well.

Recently recovered this Sparta 5-ton. Was told she was used as a refuel truck. It came with a cargo bed re-installed on here. I noticed that there is a formed metal box with heavy gauge wires going to it. Have not really had a hard look at it-its very cold here. Does anybody know what this is? Pete

Why did you have to post those pictures? Its 10 degrees below zero here in St Paul. Pete

Like the look of a Deuce in Tan coat and pants. Pete

809 may work better with no CDL-no air brakes. Pete

I had a chimney fire in our first home. Old house with a very tall chimney. I had installed a stainless steel liner pipe. One cold morning I had the wood stove stuffed with dry oak-got here going and began to hear the familiar train coming at you noise. Ran outside to look and found small flames...

I was going to stop at the 32 minute mark. Then the film switched to the personal hygene attachments-shaver, tooth brush, powered boil lance and the ol' bunion sander. What a remarkable machine. Pete

Looks good

Thanks for all the input. There are some good methods listed here. The key would be the portability and ease of attaching the portable skid to the truck. Maybe a simple cable lift like a Deuce spare tire lift-crank it up the set onto a nest with a couple of quick clamps. I like the part of using...

I have a few trucks that I keep on a parcel of land I own. A few trucks translates into a bunch of batteries. Three of my trucks stay on the land and are not licensed-so I got to thinking... I have two 5-tons trucks with weak batteries, with another that has 6 year old batteries in it. Given I...

I shoot a little shot of ether into the snorkel on my M923. Starts right down to 10 degrees F. Pete

No worries if you keep your CTIS equipped truck on the farm. If it fails and you cant get it to work, disconnect it. If your land has sand pits you wish to drive through-CTIS it! If you dont have sand-KISS it (Keep it simple slim)

Hey-this is a rough part of the country. We have lots of bears up here-that when hungry will eat right though a house. Armor seems to hold them off a bit. Pete

All good information here. I have a sick Mule that needs fixing. Engine and bearings/seals. I hope to tear into it this winter. Pete

The word "advise" has been used or spelled wrong here. The proper spelling in the way the word was used here should be "advice". Truck looks great. The cat fight- not so much.

I have had lots of dealings with Scott. He is a good man. Pete

I have owned an A2. Now own an A3, and a 5 ton. After I got my A3, I found the A2 was parked more. I use my trucks mostly for fun and homeowner, land, farm stuff. The A3 seems better suited to daily stuff. The A2 is more authentic, and simple and honkin loud. My 5 ton is even better for work...
