Maybe they use parts from several trucks to make a few nicer ones? God forbid the GL people actually do something that nice for you if that's the case. I would be surprised, but anything could happen.
It's because of this stuff and all the advice and wisdom that I'll be getting my Deuce shipped to me or once I get my CDL and M915A1, I'll be trailering it home on a flatbed. Glad he didn't get hurt, I hope he gets his deuce back soon!
Hauling personal loads and such, not line haul stuff.
I also don't see the problem with using it daily? If you have some reason that I don't know then please do share. I'm trying to find everything out about these. And if your argument is that its a 20+ year old truck, I realize that fully, but...
I'm borrowing this idea so I don't thread jack. Any of you who have on of these trucks or models similar, my question to you is how much you pay for insurance and through who? I plan to use mine over the road daily like a normal tractor. Thanks!

Very cool I'll wait to find a good one, hopefully GL and the gov't won't pull these off like they did the Deuce. I'd like to have the Allison trans, but I'll take anything I can get!
No I'm not looking for a concrete truck, that's why I changed posts. I would prefer the 916, but I'm happy with a 915 or 915A1. The 920 sounds nice, but I haven't seen any of these other models, and I love the looks of the 915A1 so that's what I'm shooting for. Lockers are a great thing, but...
Ive had the same problem too when looking for information, some of it is pretty jumbled and inaccurate. You guys here have had the best information so far. Thanks again! Now does anyone know where to buy one of these when GL doesn't have any available?
Adam
I actually just started reading these thank you! This archive of TM's is a great resource.
Also: On the tire suggestions, those seem too tall for pulling a trailer, is there another style I should be looking for? Are HMMTT wheels the only ones that will fit on these? I thought some meaty...
Do you or anyone else know who has one of these in good condition for sale? The last one on GL closed today at 5 for around $4555. I've got to get my CDL permit this week coming up, get the truck and practice, then get the full license. I'm hoping I didn't miss on the last few available for a...
I agree with everything you've said NDT, I have read just about everything posted here on them and am sold basically. The only thing I'm worried about is if it doesn't have locking rears, how does it do during the winter? I live here in Kansas City, MO and it does snow/ice quite a bit. Would it...
I've been doing some research since posting this, they have a Cummins NTC-400 not the 250 luckily. ( I could be wrong ) I'm thinking pretty seriously about buying one of these beasts soon. They are awesome for the price.
Hey I've got a few questions regarding the M919 or M919A1.
1. Do they have locking rear axles?
2. What model Cummins comes in them?
3. Anyone know of a good parts supplier for these?
4. Is it a good idea to add a second air tank for the breaks and wiper system so I don't run out at the worst...
