I got a chance to drive a DUKW a few weeks ago and it was by far one of the coolest things ive done in a MV, sure beats all the stuff I play with in the Army. I love the older stuff. -Jay

Those are two way diff. trucks. Like like saying a M818 cant keep up hauling with a M123. I wouldn't expect it to do much , the LMTV/FMTV trucks are crappy in my opinion. And I have driving both wreckers and trucks your talking about so I'm not looking at data sheets or reading in a book so I...

Your great for saving whats coming to be a rare MV that we all cant get. Keep up the good work! , Jay

Did you happen to put it in the classifieds? Its where your ad belongs and it will get alot of looks. Good luck on your sale, Jay

Im having a problem uploading also. It wanted to upload them all but only show one just now, but before it wouldnt let me do any. Jay

Updated, 99% done - Jay

Yeah , talk about truck driving, drive an antique Mack. Shift up right , split gears shift down right at the correct RPM , dont get both sticks in neutral at the same time , never lug your engine etc,etc,etc. Nothing like driving a MV. Now the 7155, Just like driving a manual tranny you still...

I drove one a few weeks ago , there really is a bit of driver focus on the tranny and the shifts really arent that smooth but I didnt have any chirping tires or grinding noises. I figured par for the course on a old Army very heavy equipment hauler. I really see where your coming from, Jay

Me too

I knew I read this thread for some reason , how did you like the old B model Mack?

Inquiring minds want to know.

I with everyone else the truck looks nice. Phil's right , you need a trailer, no reason to have a M818 without one.

Id be mad at any bussiness that put stupid ads on 4 days of every month. **** the ads are bigger than the Holidays like Christmas, Verterans Day and Memorial day. Like I said I really like that they sent it out , I wasnt expecting it , but could be better if they didnt ad it up. The bottom ads...

How did everyone like the MVPA's calender that came with our magazines this month ? I thought it was great and my wife was surprised to see it. I did see 3 GL ad's for 3 diff months(not so bad)at the bottom and it thought it was STUPID to see them put GL Auction Close dates for every Thursday...

I can drive it to NC if you need me to. - Jay

Pulling wood and re decking the trailer. Should be done in a couple weeks.

The Military way under rates stuff as we know. Ive seen some crazy pictures all over the internet of what M818's can really haul. Your tractor looks like its behind the grinder , its early and my eyes arent right I guess,

Really.. looks like Wal mart Cammo Krylon.

The problem isnt fixing GL its getting the MVPA to understand what GL does to MVPA members. Honestly I bet you my next pay check that the MVPA directors know what GL does to its customers. Do you really think they dont know? They are normal guys just like us, easy to call and talk to also. And...
