Well I am definately scouring the Auctions now. I feel I can get a better deal in the mid-west than on the west coast. I am going to try for a 5T and 2.5T and see how it goes! Thanks for all the info folks - I am somewhat mechanically inclined yet only on gas engines - but it's the understanding...

LOL - y'all are too funny! I am still keeping an eye out for the elusive XM813 - That's what Daddy wants!! WOO HOO!!!!

I see we are a resilant bunch! Glad to know I am in good company!

Thanks guys - I appreciate the help to this point. I just can't say what I want, ya know!? I just see this abundant toy store, a open credit card and the twitchy fingers......

As I many times over, looked and looked at all the wonderful surplus coming out of the Military, I am finding more and more and more the fact I am really pulled to the 5 Ton cargos. Of those of you who have one, when did you purchase it, if you don't my asking what approximately did you pay for...

I just can't see them keeping an eye out for these Military Trucks. They obviously don't go the fastest and aren't going to out run the helicopter either (though the camo paint may help to hide it! HAHA) I just wasn't sure about the weight stations and all that. If these MV's are en route and...

Wow - Thanks for the abundant pictures DR! Hopefully things will be better for you in TX, just try and enjoy the wide open space!! Congrats and hopefully might be able to join a few of y'all and meet some faces!! Good luck on the 2nd trip! John

Personally I have removed a Turbo 350 & a NP203 out of my blazer. However with the considerable size difference of these 6x6's, what is the true proper way to remove a really heavy transmission and transfer case? Are these like a 3 person job or 2 people and a good floor jack?? Just curious...

Cool, well that's definately a consideration when looking for the 'deuce to be' and where it may be. I know that in AZ it's not a problem, however if you just bought it can you literally just jump in it a drive home (considering it runs and all!! HAHA) I would just hate to buy something out of...

Well, if there is the need (and I feel there is) I would be willing to help maintain the new forum to warn folks about potential thieves!!! John

Yes, don't add to the Hip & Spine problems High Blood Pressure! One thing off topic I can suggest (first hand) is you may want to look into someone within your area that does Accupuncture. I have been doing it twice a week for the past 2-3 months for an automobile accident and it's help my...

Sorry to see you so [:(!] Kaiser! I am sure your ready to go Rambo and start kicking some :boxer: !!! Well, asking the obvious, but did you take the Paypal/E-Bay route about never receiving the goods? I have had to do that in the past (they actually kicked off the member from e-bay) and...

Ok, so hypothetically if I was to say buy a 5 Ton or a Deuce even in another state, it was good to drive and had no concerns what would be the ramnifications do driving it say from Mississippi to Arizona without any Class A or B endorsements? Some states are particular about vehicles with more...

It's unfortunate that you can't run offroad tires when you plan on heading out and the 11x20's when your heading to the parade! John

Where is a decent place to get chains? Is it something that can be gotten at a local Napa? John

Well, we have alot of sand (err, desert) here around Phoenix and I want to take this out for a fishing trip or two. One of the places we go has some fairly deep sand (real fine almost powder cause the grains are so small) and I just thought I didn't think those 11x20's got decent enough traction...

JasonS you need to please complete your signature so we know where your a callin' from!! Sorry, but it's a requirement for all members! Thanks! John

Well with the popularity of MV's I was just thinking of planning ahead - expect member numbers may soon increase rapidly, Just some thoughts.... John

I was just curious, as I near making a choice on which deuce to get (should be by July) what types of driving conditions are the deuces most likly to loose traction in? What about sand? Does deep or wet sand cause them to get stuck? Is mud not an issue? Do they loose traction there too? It...

SPicer - I feel for you man - my first marriage only lasted 1 1/2 years - it ceased when I couldn't take the fact she was a meth fiend and also when, under her care my first daughter 'mysteriously' broke her left arm (clean break) at 5 months old. You truly don't know someone even after you have...
