Hello from Central Minnesota

[Folgers]

I just bought my first MV a few weeks ago. It is a 1969 AM General M35A2 with a whistler turbo. As soon as I saw it for sale, I knew I had to have it. I can't believe how much power these things have. I tested it out in my backyard on a few big stumps that needed to be pulled out. It barely has to work in low-range 6wd.

I've been doing a lot of research on these trucks for a while, now, and I still have plenty to learn. Looks like there is a ton of information on here, I better get busy reading...

Welcome to the site, that sure is a sharp looking truck you got there

Glad your putting it to good use! I think a tan one would look good for your next one!!

Hey Scott,

I gotta stay away from there for a while...can't have another one follow me home at this point. LOL

I got some weird looks from the neighbors when I took it down the road for the first time. Now I just have to get my 77' highboy done, and we'll be the loudest house in the neighborhood...

I've said this many times, but when I got mine, I thought it would be a toy I didn't get much use out of.

How mistaken I was.....................

Welcome, you will meet alot of good guys on the site, you will also end up buying more OD trucks. It is like that lays commercial "bet you can't own just one."

 

[Folgers]
