    Say TTFN to the M60!

    Best guess would be a M48, no black exhaust fumes to give away the diesel. Plus it has the muzzle brake like the M48. Couldn't tell but the front looks curved as well.

    Say TTFN to the M60!

    You can haul an M60 on a 3-axle RGN legally (with permits of course). We've been requested to bring an A3 down for a parade next year and that's what my dad (commercial driver) is planning on using to haul with.

    Safely working around Hornets (video)

    Its kind of like the old joke "what is the last thing a bug sees when it hits your windshield; his ...". What do you think they saw? I'm betting not much rofl

    ...Track on a trailer...

    Only bad thing about the M172 trailer is the **** heavy trailer ramps.

    "Do not park in gear"

    An M60A3 is an automatic as well. It won't bump start unless someone leaves it in gear. Yes, there is a TM procedure on how to pull start an M60.

    This is how a 3/4 ton pulls an M146

    Don't try this at home: Tie the pin of the M146 to a tree --- check Floor diesel pickup pulling trailer out from under M146 --- check Say "that didn't work as planned" when you look in your mirrors --- check :-)

    Deuce in the 'burbs?

    I have mine at a museum so I can't recommend that to you. What I would do is check with RV storage locations or if you know anyone with some land see about "renting" a 10' x 21' area to park it. I know there is a place just south of Prior Lake on the way out to the Horse and Hunt club that...

    Gauges acting up

    Might be your flasher controller up on the inside of the engine compartment on the left wheel well area.

    Deuce in the 'burbs?

    Better check your city codes. I live in Prior Lake and I got politely told I can not store it in town for long periods of time. I can have it in my driveway but just not forever as they city doesn't want semi's or big work trucks to be stored in town as it "make the city look less appealing".

    Cat 7155 tranny

    You also have to remember to hit the button on the side of the shifter otherwise you won't move when you put it in gear on the shifter. We always get a kick when we need to move our M916 and someone who has never driven our M916 says "Hey I'll move it". They get in, start it up and wait for...

    M35A2/A3 Load Capacity Question

    Dimensions I don't know about but a Deuce on a paved road will haul 5 tons safely. Its rated for 2-1/2 ton off-road, 5 ton on-road.

    Deuce 5 ton and humvees

    Better hope you HMMWV has the "fixed" AC compressor. The mechanics have been swapping a crap load of them out recently as they leak out brand new from the factory.

    Pics of Adam's new M172A1 and M37

    new deisel feul

    Biodiesel doesn't work so well for us northern states guys. Gels pretty quickly. The Minneapolis Public Transit Authority found that out the hard way a couple of years ago.....there was a law passed stating all of the buses had to run on a pretty high mix of the bio and when it got below...
