Has anyone looked at the date codes of their 15.5's? Also, how much driving have you done with them to test how they hold up?

Since those 15.5/80r20 tires are rated for over 12,000 pounds I think since the deuce weights 14,000 pounds total you should be fine going 60. If you put a max load on the bed and are driving through Death Valley, then you might have a problem. I am putting those tires on my truck when I get...

Welcome, another new guy from Michigan. I am kicking around the idea of having a military rally/show or whatever you want to call it at my church latter in the summer, or maybe early fall. Lunch would be on us! Give me some feedback if there is any interest at all.

Look around and save up your money and you will find the right one. Your friend should be able to find a m1009, look on these classifieds and I have seen one or two listed on Saginaw's craigslist. Welcome to the site! Lots of Michigan members here.

Haggar--there is a truck for sale in the classifieds that is singled out with 11r20 Michelins, there are several good pictures of the truck.

Hobby Lobby had several choices of canvas when I looked there. Tans and greens. Walmart had 1 choice of tan, and I am sure a larger store like JoAnn fabrics will even have camo colors in canvas. I have some of the MARPAT digital camo that is a thick canvas I got from there. Keep looking...

My wife said something about putting a "hello kitty" sticker on it!

I will take pictures of my filtering set up that I just got done building last night. Now I just have to collect some waste motor oil and go pick up the truck from GL to see if it will all work. I have a rotary hand pump that I picked up at Harbor freight, and a fuel filter plus a water...

M35a2 w/w purchased from GL last week at Ft. Indiantown Gap, PA a. 4L205552117505 b. C. d. Ft. Indiantown Gap, PA e. It would be cool to find out a little bit more about this truck in my prep to pick it up, thanks Carnac!

Well guys, I finally one a truck, w/w, cargo cover, heater, and hard top...all the options that I wanted! I was only $120 higher than my budget, but no trucks with winches went cheaper than that in the configuration I wanted. The truck I won was fourth on my list, the first one on my list...

I have had a preview of the trucks that I am willing to go that high on, and I have also looked at tons of pictures of the $3500 winch trucks. In my opinion they have too much rust for that price, plus I would like a hard top, troop seats, heater, cargo cover...and I have seen no $3500 winch...

At last week's auction I capped my price at $1500 for a winch truck with a hard top, they ended up going for $1800 to $2600. I am a newbie, but if I do not raise my cap a little bit, I will not get a truck. Simple as that, what else can I do? Private sales, decent winch trucks are $4000. So...

Mike's trucks are the first ones I ever got to see close up and test drive. I really like his pole barn!

You definately have some knowledge now to bargain with. If the guy doesn't want to listen, consider passing. I have passed on several because I am waiting for just the right deal to come along. One will, I just have to be patient.

Try to get a truck and we can do the car show/cruise in Michigan with digitaldust and others.

I have either test drove or called on all the deuces on CL in metro Detroit. One is $4500 wo/w, soft top, no heat or cargo and side rails! He also says he drives in to clear woods, but it hasn't been abused! There is a guy on here who was selling 2, drove one, he sold the better of the 2...

Well I sold my Silverado tonight for $5,500 cash...so let the earnest search begin! Hopefully the next thread I start will be my recovery thread!

I have permission now, as long as I sell my pickup truck and do not spend every dollar we have on repairs.

One way or the other the Silverado has got to go if I want to aford a deuce. I can drive my wife's Tahoe to get parts!

Well guys I test drove anyone today, one with a winch. He wants $4200, it has a hard top and a heater. Or he will give me $500 cash and I will trade him my 1999 Z71 extended cab silverado for the deuce. Also, now that my wife isn't pregnant anymore, she road in it! By the way, I also have...
