    NJ seeks to ban MV's in state forests

    Good luck in your battle, you see where the problem lies. I don't have a clue what the organizations are that you listed in your back ground. I was fighting this battle (and losing) since long before any organizations existed. I finally gave up in the mid nineties. In your letters to the DEP you...

    NJ seeks to ban MV's in state forests

    Jerseyjeep, do you remember the conversations we had about those cleanups? I said then that the people you were trying to impress were not listening and they were still going to close the trails. That was what, a year or two ago? This is nothing new, it has just been brought to the forefront by...

    NJ seeks to ban MV's in state forests

    I had one of those trucks at one time, we would go to our favorite area and play and then cruise out. There was always some ahole that would back into a water filled hole and power brake it in two wheel drive and dig the hole out till he bottomed out. I came across a Ranger one night at 01:00...

    M1009 Odometer (getting rolled back?)

    You can legally reset a speedometer as long as it is well documented AND, this is the biggie, it is reset to the original mileage as the one that was replaced. It is not that hard to do. Different states have different laws pertaining to how it is done. When it comes right down to it if you...

    NJ seeks to ban MV's in state forests

    Keep in mind that I am a four wheeler in addition to being someone who wants to see the pinelands kept in a preserved state. The way things are headed that area is going to be turned into a wasteland because of the overabundance of 4WD vehicles and idiots driving them now. Everybody wants to...

    NJ seeks to ban MV's in state forests

    Mudlord, what is your avatar? I have been traveling and wheeling the pines since the 60's. I have seen it all back there. I was good friends with chief Ranger Langdon In the 80's and he told me that the behavior was going to be the downfall of the wheelers. We used to have a couple of areas that...

    M1009 Odometer (getting rolled back?)

    There is only ONE way the mileage goes backwards and it is not legal. And yes it is human intervention. You probably need to find a different caretaker for your truck before you come back to a pile of wreckage! I am sure there are a lot of stories around town about your truck while you were...

    Gilbert 2012 Want/Bring/looking for list

    I sent an E-mail to Jim, I will resend it. I don't mind paying and where I was parked was well out of the way of vendors and traffic. After the debacle I had at Aberdeen if I can't find a quiet spot then I will not go. Rick

    Still waiting to hear about camping arrangements. I have an e-mail out to Jim Gilmore but have not heard back. If I do not hear back within the next week I will have to blow it off. I have to give work vacation notice. Rick

    Smoke ?

    It is a mechanically injected, naturally aspirated, Non computer controlled, 30 year old engine. It is pretty amazing that they do not smoke a lot more than they do. Rick

    Going to live in my deuce in Oklahoma....

    Paragraph one...........BINGO. Paragraph two............You may have just fallen into the best deal of your life, do not abuse it. Do NOT talk about your parents while there. I suggest you just put your parents out of your mind altogether and just move on. Prove to them you can do this and do...

    Going to live in my deuce in Oklahoma....

    You are headed in the right direction and you are realizing what the issues and problems are. Including not wanting to rid yourself of the vehicles. I would be VERY careful of that living arrangement bacause nothing in life is free. You move in with three women and you are in for a world of...

    Going to live in my deuce in Oklahoma....

    Listening to you talk you are up and down drastically. You really should talk to a counselor. I am not trying to be a smart azz here, you have some anger issues to deal with. You seem to hate your family with a passion. Your finances are not going to magically repair themselves like you seem to...

    Death of a M1031

    And to add insult to injury what do you see in the last pic of the totaled truck? FORKLIFT damage! Go figure. Those guys are real lucky that nothing come through the box and back of the cab. I have seen a lot of accidents with those types of trucks where the stuff in the back comes right through...

    Man down, MAN DOWN

    I learned a long time ago, never run automotive (light truck) tires on a tandem axle trailer. They can not handle the side loads. Use only trailer tires which are marked ST on the sidewall. Rick

    Sold a 1031, titling issues with new buyer, need advise.

    They are working this out peacefully on their own now and you are trying to rile them up. That is stirring the pot. How about for once we let one run it's coarse quietly? Rick
