Now that's funny dude. Seriously, I just bought a nice M1009 that needs some minor TLC but is overall sound for $1500.00 from an individual on this site. He owned it for several years and I got a good background on what was done to it and what was needed. Sorry but I have never met an honest...

[quote=Sajer;53177} He also claimed he buys them direct from the gov and not the GL? Does that sound right? Is their a smiley figure throwing up a BS flag? just wondering. Pretty sure if your buying surplus it's coming thru GL or if another agency had it first GSA. Someone correct me if I'm...

There is a thread on here about why own a deuce. I would post a link to it but that is beyond my technical capabilities. If you search the deuce forums you will see many uses for these trucks.

Your uncle was lucky, I treat my deuce like a tractor, I am pretty sure a rollover type accident would not have a good outcome. As long as whatever you hit with it stays on the ground I think you would be good to go, but there just isn't enough metal above the doors to stop anything.

heck your probably better off dealing with GL than a car lot. It's one thing to buy from an individual who has owned it and gone through it, but a car lot has no idea what they have. Just my 2 cents worth.

Thanks for all the info, if its not raining I'll check out the parking brake when I get home. I'm glad this is looking like it will be an easy fix.

Is this a problem that could be repaired with the transmission in the truck? Would replacing the cover with a good one fix it? I don't think its the e-brake because mine is pretty weak. It happened doing from 1st to reverse. Mabey this weekend I can pull the plate and take a look. Thanks...

I had a problem this weekend and am looking for some direction on where to go from here, if anywhere. I went to pickup a load of firewood and when I put the truck in reverse it would not back up. The transmission felt fine it was like a set of wheels were locked up. I rolled forward a few...

Confirming again why I hate snow. At least your in a nice part of Ohio, I always liked the lakes

No one here is saying don't help them out. I think people are worried over long term solutions. I am way more worried over the probably billions of dollars that will be pumped into hatti over the next say 5 years. If I though 100 deuce's would fix there problems I would say heck go for it...

I think a lot of people are having this fear right now. I don't mind helping out some people in need but that place is nothing but a welfare nation, I don't think our economy could handle it for one, and secondly I don't think most Americans would go for it. At least this one won't.

For what it's worth my deuce winch cable looked like a ball of rust but the rest of the truck was rust free. and you would be amazed how well a winch cable can clean up.

Not that they could afford to operate them once we pull out anyway.

I am in the western part of the state, I am sure there is someone closer but if I can help let me know. I saw those on gsa but just have to much on my plate at the moment. Good luck with them.

I got some M9 bayonets. Those were tempting I just didn't need 5 of them, glad someone on here got some.

I think that was done in middlesboro, ky back in the 1990's I am pretty sure they do not fly her anymore due to super high insurance costs. popacom, Crofton is in SW Kentucky About 20 miles north of the Tn state line as the crow flies, I would think you should have plenty of fellow MV...

heck I'm just glad we have a classified section. It is where I recently found my M1009 for a good price. (ad said it had a title). Now for it it get home next month.

I am with greenjeepster on this one. I think most sellers who have a title point it out anyway as it is in there best interest to.

so a friend of mine was cleaning out some storage space at his unit and came up on a bunchl of these H-45 multi-fuel heaters, that were not on the books. After a short conversation with his boss they were split up among the men and two ended up on my door step. They seem pretty neat and look...

I got to finally use my winch truck this weekend for it's intended purchase, pulling a stuck tractor out of a hole. I have a couple of questions for you winch experts out there. 1st what is the safest way to get the cable to wind back up nice and pretty. 2nd what do you use to do your six...
