    Picked up my friends M1009

    Well my day started out at 3:30 am today. My friend and I headed up to Fort McCoy to pick up his M1009.

    Got a few questions

    First off I was driving home from Iowa last weekend, and it seems I didn't have as much power as I did driving out. But there were high winds and I had the canvas over the bed.
