    NOTIFICATION OPTIONS Under 'Thread Tools' on the old site we had an option of being notified by .......control panel.........instant notification by email....etc. Is that option here somewhere? I'm looking! It seems the new posts go directly to email notification default. If post info goes...

    Steel Soldiers migration 12/9/19

    I need to be more patient with the post button. It didn't seem to go so I hit post again. At least I was able to edit the pencil post and show our preparation for challenges.

    Steel Soldiers migration 12/9/19

    Thank you. We are ready with our pencils to take any complaints north of the 49th and ensure a quick and corrective response. Font size great, attaching a picture of pencils for a test. From here it appears things launched with few misfires. I don't like change but I'll get over it. Thanks...

    1968 Mack M123A1C 10 ton Tank Transporter

    Now that's a fast way to get things! Fast is a relative term when it still took us 6 hours to get reasonable paint coverage with a similar stage. Do we know how many hours Paul was on the paint gun? We're talking multiple angles laying on the floor squirting paint in pockets so buy that Paul...

    G749 Trucks hard to come by

    Did we talk about what the hood number is from? It seems like weeks since we talked and I'm sure the waitress put something in my coffee the night before we met. I'm almost certain it was Bailey's, Kahlua and Vodka. You'll get a chance to catch up with pictures when the kids get licenses and...

    302 Inline 6 GMC Military One or two? These are the take-outs we found in crates. I was going to get these open and turned this year and now I don't feel so bad seeing you haven't posted for two years. Sounds like you had some good times so we'll now be aggravating you for deuce camping...

    Question on Canadian M135 Canvas Cargo Top

    Hey welcome aboard. That's your first post and the greeting committee usually chimes in begging for pictures or video, sorry we missed you. I'll hunt for details. We just had a few made up so might even have a few measurements. I think it's around 12" longer on each side but I also thought...

    G749 preservation

    Happy Birthday HAPPY BIRTHDAY Short Stack! Can you imagine exactly 63 years ago someone in Wayne Michigan pulled a pipe off the shelf, extended her tongue out and licked the glue on the back of this label. There it is November 1956...still there! I can't believe it's been a week already...

    G749 preservation

    Parts move I'll bet there's an app for that! Taking the drive from here to San Diego, Yuma, Phoenix, Tucson was an eye opener. It's quite the rock we're standing on! That's it. We stocked the 9 acres with Trout for years but it was tough keeping O2 up. One year the 3"-5" baby trout grew to 3...

    That's a nine acre, frozen pond at the edge of the prairies 40 miles west of Edmonton. Technology is sure fattening because now you can see most of it from your couch in minutes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OY2gkEIYQlg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fXRNdneN8PM The nasty fliers...

    Goose's Goose's, like Charlie's Angels I'm really not sure. Maybe we can get a big fat grant with some support from cat and bird lovers and do a study. My early conclusions are that MV's must be driven or this happens. Then the cats show up for food. Golf Echo Whiskey Sierra Goose...

    MV illegal on highway in Canada (Quebec)

    I like the smell of roses and it doesn't smell like roses. It smells better than blue cheese so on a scale of one to ten with cheese being ten and one being roses, it smells like campfire. Calming, warm and soothing but it's going to continue to need attention. It was the background noise...

    Piglet to rise A big thanks today to Seano11 and the M931/23/A2/C4-102819 5 ton that pulled Piglet to new heights. Piglet was gifted to the G749 farm so there's a priority over other trucks to see if she'll run and roll. Either way it's time to start unbolting the manure tank and clean...

    I'm new to Deuce world.

    Bonjour et bienvenue. Rangez votre équipement et profitez des sons joyeux du G749 Green Giant. Votre anglais est meilleur que mon français, bien que je commence à bien dire: "La plaque" C "doit aller à la toilette. Are you hoping to insure and register the truck for the road? We need to see...

    MV illegal on highway in Canada (Quebec)

    After talking to Quebec today I'm convinced this will get resolved to current MV owners satisfaction but future MV owners will see changes. Safety sense will prevail and we'll all have an opportunity to guide our MV future, it just continues to take time. November 11th is going to be very...

    Stolen LMTV and skid steer. Keep eye out in NC and surrounding area

    We know how that feels. I'd go hunting when things went missing to get some relief. Sorry you're going through this. If I get this right, E-scrap metal and the pits over in the industrial area would be handy places to hide that gear. If I have the area right it's S.E. of 77 and 485. We still...

    MV illegal on highway in Canada (Quebec)

    Do you fellas and ladies have any favorite local media contacts? Many individuals making calls to local media across the States and having them call the number below to find out what the latest 'rules' are for tourists in Quebec may net some answers. Quebec is still not sure. A good journalist...

    Future MV Owners, travelling to the future Once again, the G749 farm hosted a group of cadets and a pile of green volunteers. "Let's go camping", they said. "It'll be fun for the kids", they said....... Is that snow? Fun for the kids because they get the heater and many of the officers...
