Along with full air compressor, gen, MIG...
I know the DD gassers are anti engine running.... any issue with fueling diesel with the truck running? Can't say I've stopped at a diesel pump.....ever.....
Kind of nice...my co-pilot (who might actually drive the truck home) drives a tandem axle 40,000# water truck and a tag trailer/directional boring drill on tracks every day..... so I have some large scale truck experience coming with also.
Along with my air compressor filled.... impacts...
Well..... its all set in stone....
This upcoming Saturday morning.... another deuce might join the fray.
Been in contact with the private owner for a few weeks and now I'm making the drive.... with cash (cert check) in hand.
Pictorial results to follow BUT:

Will be looking at a deuce next weekend... my question is....
Can I simply buy the vehicle (cert check or cash...whatever not important) and have the title signed over in hand and simply drive the deuce home? A 'normal' car purchase... you have 3-5 days or something like that after date of...
Jeepers... if its okay with you... maybe here in the next few weeks I'll send you a PM and maybe make the journey up. (I have a few friends and family with places in Townsend also so would be perfect...)

Even so.... 34k worth of debt should only be around 400-700 a month on a 5 year note......(which should be manageable with a good job...)
