M275A2 On Its Way Home

[Recovry4x4]

Well folks, shortly after 8AM (0800 for you Mike) the M275A2 tooks it's final turn out of my driveway and is now headed back to its new home in NC. Hank is planning a complete resto for the old girl. She has served me well but it's time to move on. I have a video but as usual, can't get it uploaded. Update, got it! Here's the short video.

LOL, thats Jonathan. He was disturbed that I sold "His" truck. Perhpas he was somewhat right, he's got a lot of miles in that truck. At least 5000 that I can recall of the 14,000+ that I put on it since having it. I suppose it will be missed but I'm glad to be getting back to a truck that doesn't require a trailer to go grocery shopping.

I suppose you are referring to the 300 cans of Chili Mac? I'll have you know Gimpy brough me more whilst at the FL Rally.

Settings might be preventing you from seeing it. Try right clicking it and saving to your machine. I'm not much with computers but the format is AVI. If that doesn't work, one of the GURUs will need to help.

Well, Hank Davis called me earlier. They drove straight trhough with the old tractor and got in about 0200. He said the truck ran flawlessly then entire time and they ran it 60 MPH the entire way. He was relieved to get it home finally. I have to say, that old truck never ever stranded me no matter how bad the conditions. I don't know exactly how many miles they covered because there were some traffic issues but thats a pretty long day in the saddle of a deuce.
