Made my afternoon walk around of the MVs and noticed a large amount of my 5 ton hood insulation on the ground. Raised the hood and out popped a red fox. Remnants of a portion of the tomatoes from our garden half eaten on top the cummins. Does anyone know a source for replacement hood insulation...
Gave both Granddaughters driving lessons in the M923A2. It was hot today so figured this wouldn't last long. We ended up spending most of the day on dirt roads having the time of our lives. Yesterday I broke them in on operating MVs with the SEE. What great kids
There could have been a lot worse places to break down, but after a short time and a few choice words in the 92 degree heat, she was back up and running again. A nice lady in the parking lot offered me a Blue Bell ice cream, making the drive home quite refreshing
My son loves the truck. So I figured I would give him a way to enjoy the truck even when it's sitting still.

Annoying air leak under cab demanded attention. I found a straight brass adaptor was split front to back (hairline crack). Took the part to NAPA and a dozen other semi local auto / truck parts depts. with no luck in finding a match, or a suitable replacement. Resorted to southern ingenuity...

I visualize that to be a satisfying experience. I was thinking someone might have chimed in to say they drove their 5 ton to Macys at the Mall to show you up LOL.
I have to share a little humor. Cranked up the M923A2 as I do periodically to let it run for a while, and a stray dog wondered over to wet the front tire just when big green built up nominal PSI air pressure and let out a nice little Honk. Stray dog last seen hauling a_ _ down the road wetting...
Pulled the 923A2 up to contractor loading dock at Home Depot and said "fill her up boys", then hauled up the mountain to build a hunting cabin. The trooper at the weigh station just shook his head and waved me on :)
Well, it may sound unorthodox, but my wife and I took the 5 ton in to town for date night this evening(dinner and a movie) It was actually her idea. Gotta love it when my gal says this is cool :)
