    Oil in the air tank...bet that's not good.

    Do you drain it before each drive? That looks like an old build-up of oil.

    Picked up my M200A1

    I had to go check my GL paperwork. Looks like I got it at 59,400+/-. Also matches CARNAC's info. Still drives like a brand new truck!

    Picked up my M200A1

    Being a lowly civilian, I need to do the whole vistors pass thing at the main gate. Not too bad...gives the truck a chance to cool down after an hour at 2300 RPM!

    Do I have Dual Circuit Brakes?

    What DH said. You would need to see dual air packs, not tanks. And congrats on getting your truck! Safety should be the #1 priority in our hobby. I'm glad to see questions at least asked here, rather than your truck stuck in the side of a Ford Escort in about two weeks on I-5.

    Engine Houres/Turbo RPM'S

    Pretty sure that I read somewhere that the hour meter was calibrated to run accurate at 2000 ERPM.

    Picked up my M200A1

    Had an easy recovery today. Pre-flighted the Deuce at about 0700. On the road at 0750 or so. No problems at all, just the usual WA rain. Got lots of waves and nods and thumbs ups as per normal. Signed in/Drove on base and checked into GL just after they opened up. My paperwork was waiting on the...

    Tipper rode hard and put away wet.

    While driving a remote stretch on the Washington coast near Pacific Beach, I spotted some OD iron off the road. Of course I flipped around to take a look and some pics to share with SS. Pics are from my phone so sorry in advance for the quality. It's always fun to find these. I'm sure this tired...

    EUC - Such randomness!

    Very random! My most recent EUC wnet to BC less than 24 hrs after winning bid notification! I did use live chat to confirm my info got there by fax. GL asked me to give them 3-4 days to process the auction. I was going to, but the status changed just a few hours later.

    Rare MV? 1956 M220

    As to the yarder in question. My friend, (the owner) owns a small business that converts these used machines into mobile dredges for gravel pits. This is one of about 60 they have on site. Some are old tank hulls. He claims that most if not all the 100's of massive diesels in his machines will...
