Mine is an 85lb Blue Heeler.

Another simple deterrent that doesn't go on the vehicle is motion lights all over the place. I have 1000W halogen lights on my house that come on and it turns my yard into daylight and my Deuce is parked well within the sensor range (neighbor has similar setup on his house so its double...

Tried to PM you back Elkhunter but you have it set to not receive PMs.

That works, thanks guys. Dan

Fair enough, I tried to find it online but couldn't.

For those of us who do not have a subscription to that mag any chance you can post part of the article or a synopsis of what it says?

You are cranking before activating the either correct? I used my either 2 weeks ago and nothing sound really out of place. None of that diesel pinging or whatever you want to call it when you use either on a diesel. Maybe its just the difference in my engine versus yours as you know no 2...

10 degrees here yesterday and I decided to take my Deuce out for a maintenance drive (got the OK to do this from the PT). My Deuce is parked outside facing into the wind. With no block heaters or either used I cranked it for about 6 seconds and it started to come alive. It ran kind of funny...

My insurance agent was able to write a policy on mine thorough JC Whitney for $83 /year for full coverage. Same historic limitations that everyone else has but I have yet to see an officer even act like he's going to pull me over in my Deuce. My title here in MN is classified as "Military...

On a couple of recoveries from Camp Dodge we had to pull start the trucks due to dead batteries. We had them in Low 3rd when pulling/pushing them and that seemed to work pretty good but it was spring/summer then.

Agreed that we need to have a get together here in MN that is central as possible. Problem is who has the ground that we could do this on? Unfortunately I do not.

I would take my Deuce out but I'm not cleared with the doctors yet to do that kind of movements on the knee. I was going to take pics of the Deuce with all the snow on it but the 45mph winds blew all the snow off of it. How many wrecks did the 1" of snow cause for you USAFSS??????

Since you use the vent hole to now act as your filling point does the remote container vent like the MC did, or does it make the need for the venting go away? If you don't have a vent hooked up at all did you plug the vent line copper to prevent something from getting in there?

Before you buy it or put a plow on it get underneath it and check the frame out. A plow is going to put a lot of stress on the frame and if its damaged/weak anywhere to the point that you can visually see it you might as well avoid it for plowing purposes.

Just make sure the gladhand you get has the rubber bushing in it otherwise it won't be worth much.

Just looking at the MN craigslist I see several people who have Deuces for sale in Eastern MN/Western WI. I don't know what part of the state you are from but there are much better options than this truck.

But more than fast enough to kill yourself with

What you mean those aren't 6 volt batteries in the thing :roll:

Good point Speddmon.

The truck design as a whole is reliable but you have to remember that you're dealing with something that is probably 40 years old and hasn't been used much in the past couple of years. Do not be suprised if you have a few oil leaks start around seals after you drive it. Test the brakes before...
