    It's not a deuce

    Not an expert but a Deuce in war time in a lot of situations is easier to handle and work with than a 5-ton. The here-famous Czech Prage V3S and the Dutch Daf are also in the 2 1/2 - 3 ton range. In WW II and the first part of the Cold War, that size just was easier to do. So the military just...

    It's not a deuce

    I have the same problem talked about in this thread: people keep calling my truck a REO (as in a Deuce built by Reo). My solution (not ready yet) will be a T-shirt with a Deuce and a 5-ton next to each other, with the following text: No it is NOT [*=center]a REO [*=center]a Deuce...

    Legal Issues that could effect all MV Owners

    Zout, let me see if I have this correct. Your list gives district numbers and house numbers. If you call the district number, you will get a clerk who is fronting for one or more house members. SS Members should call the clerk with the message to support the Bill 392 and mention that it should...

    Towing a 12 volt trailer with the deuce - please help.

    In RVs and on boats the converter is - mostly - not used directly to power applications but permanently charge a battery (or a bank of batteries). The application runs of the battery. My late brother's converted cargo boat to house boat had a set-up like that. Special start battery to start the...

    Its normal: my subscription email says that "I will not get any other email about this thread...bla bla". So you will get one notification and then nothing until you visited the thread, and then you will get another one.

    Legal Issues that could effect all MV Owners

    I know how the system works but which .... ever thought up this idea that you can add completely unrelated amendments to a bill to try piggy backing the amendment through? :soapbox: Technical questions on that, just interested - Can any chamber member add any amendment to any bill regardless...

    Seems to be a funny bunch there, this senator answering a technical question and going on to state that he also does not understand what he just said. Ahh, the bell is back.

    Legal Issues that could effect all MV Owners

    Forget my last post, I have the live feed. Don't know what it is, but twice I tuned into the live feeds (first Senate and now House), and both times I got dead bang into the middle of a sermon.

    Towing a 12 volt trailer with the deuce - please help.

    The easiest and quickest way is to buy or make your own 24 volt magnetic towing tail light bar. Make sure the cable is long enough for every eventuality (like towing another MV without lights). A bit better and more permanent way is installing an extra 12 volt battery and load that one with a...

    Legal Issues that could effect all MV Owners

    You can say that again (and again and again). I changed several of our domain emails because of that, but unfortunately, I cannot use any info@domanin.com and .org etc anymore; they are known and swamped with spam permanently. I do have a honeypot and some other traps installed to block the...

    M1070(HET) Tractors What are second lives/uses????

    By the time you pulled the wind mill up the ridge with this monster, your "ecological footprint" (amount of fuel used and exhaust fumes added) will be soo big that the first 5 years the mill is only turning to cover that ;)
