    Buying a Deuce & Need a Box Trailer

    Ok.... I give up. I find all kinds of camper conversion information, but nothing on just general specs and info. Is the M109 a Deuce with a box bed? And is it just the older style deuce, like the A2. Or do they also use the A3 chassis?

    Buying a Deuce & Need a Box Trailer

    Are you serious? ...... What a joke. Not planning on running wmo anyway, I was mostly speaking about running gas/diseal/oils mix if a situation arose that I couldn't get diesel or not enough diesel alone. I'll read the post you mentioned, as I have no idea what you are talking about on fuel...

    Buying a Deuce & Need a Box Trailer

    Yeah I'm not looking for anything like that, don't have the $'s. Just looking for mostly a stock Deuce, with a few add on's basically, like an extra fuel tank. But he's only a couple hour drive from here, and he said he's currently got about 17 trucks in-stock. So plenty to look around at and...

    Buying a Deuce & Need a Box Trailer

    Thanks for the links, very interesting to see the process of the builds. Yeah I first found his trucks on ebay, and man can he build some Deuces! That was the first time I had ever seen a Crew Cab Deuce! I hadn't even thought of one being done like that before. From everywhere that I have...

    Buying a Deuce & Need a Box Trailer

    Well to be honest, that is one reason I am getting one. The way things are looking, we're going to need it. I have read that they used two A2's to build one A3. But I thought everything was rebuilt, I didn't know that there are still parts that are 30 years old on the A3. Or were you just...

    Buying a Deuce & Need a Box Trailer

    I had to go back and look up the listing to make sure, but Yes you are Correct, it is C&C Equipment. He's a member too? It seems like anyone who has anything to do with MV's is Here [thumbzup] Its better that way though, got everyone in one place 8-)

    Buying a Deuce & Need a Box Trailer

    I don't how I missed that post, and several of the others that they listed also. Thanks for the links But they also seem to repeat the going argument though that I have seen. A2 people mostly say A2's are better, most A3 people say the A3's are better. I know the A3 has several updates, such as...

    Buying a Deuce & Need a Box Trailer

    Hi All, I'm going tomorrow to look at some deuces for sale at a "dealer" not to far from here. I guess you would call him a dealer at least, he has 17 or so Trucks. Plus he also rebuilds, customizes, sells tons of parts and other. Anyway, this will be my first time buying a deuce, which will...

    Sounds like a good addition to make! And I have to agree with the others: nopics Got to See This... When you get a chance.

    Choosing the Right MV for the Job - Need Ideas, Experience, & Opinions from MV Users

    I think I found a place not to far from here that is selling several deuces. I'll probably call and go check that out as soon as I get a chance. But I do appreciate the offer. I'm pretty sure its contagious, and I've already been continuously exposed to it since I signed up to SS several weeks...

    Drive a Deuce at a ford dealer.....?? I've never seen one at a ford dealership.

    Choosing the Right MV for the Job - Need Ideas, Experience, & Opinions from MV Users

    Yeah, that obviously the next step. I know I have seen them before at some point, but I never was looking at them thinking "Thats the kinda of truck I need...." at the time. In any case, I'm moving forward from here, there is a place I'm going to be checking out soon that apparently sells them...

    Yeah I guess they are! I've never seen one up close in person, that I can remember at least (but I probably have in a parade or something). But from all the photos and such, I thought they were much bigger.

    Choosing the Right MV for the Job - Need Ideas, Experience, & Opinions from MV Users

    Now here's a question that I haven't seen an example of or talk of: From what I have seen and understand on bobbing a deuce, basically they remove the rear axle and then replace the bed with a trailer bed. Or at least that what I have read on a few different sites. But here's a question...

    :shock::shock::shock: - Seriously??! I would have never thought that! I guess its just because they look so huge. Thanks! That kind of puts its size in perspective for me.

    Got It! [thumbzup] I'll do some more searching, and see what all I can come up with.

    Choosing the Right MV for the Job - Need Ideas, Experience, & Opinions from MV Users

    Thanks everyone for your suggestions! [thumbzup] They have really helped a lot! After considering your suggestions, and looking through more vehicles, I have come to the conclusion that a bobbed deuce is probably going to be the route to go. It should cover all the aspects that I need, plus...

    Yes Thanks for suggestion. I was looking into that possibility just today. I'm starting to lean that way, as I think it could do the job.
