Lil' Ruthie - Hangar Queen

[readyman]

It only seems fitting that the 'Home Air Force Base' deuce, Lil' Ruthie... find a new home in a hangar with other MV's. The low hours/miles '88 was in excellent condition when I got her, probably had never been off the taxiways at Home AFB.
Made the 7 hour trip to Battle Creek in the middle of a stormy night, in the most uneventful of 'Deuce Recovery' stories. "Do the windshield wipers work?" "I don't know she's never been in the rain before."
The new owners, a great father/son team, could appreciate the care and attention Lil' Ruthie got, and'll take good care of her I am sure.
Meanwhile back at the ranch... I'll be keeping up my 'physical therapy' on this bum right shoulder(can't even manual shift anymore) and maybe look into a HMMWV or A3 with an automatic trans.

Beautiful....love those 14.50s up front and the 11.00's out back. Very nice.

Did yours come with the clearance lights, or did you install them?

What? Another one lost? Seriously, my two favorite trucks on Steelsoldiers are gone. Bruce's M977 and Lil Ruthie in the same day? Oh my, I can't take this.

Breaks my heart to see a man and truck go separate ways.....

I like the wheel/tire set up as well. Where'd those wheels come from?

Did you steer the new owners here?
