There are some mighty fine trucks in the running this month! While each one is worthy of winning, my vote goes to Woodsplinter! He has one awesome looking Deuce that I'd like to see on the home page next month!

I know there is a big contingent of Arizona folks on this site. Rally around your hometown guy and let's see some votes for Woodsplinter! (Okay, I'm bias. I grew-up in Phoenix.)

Thanks Mike!!

Okay Folks- I'm about to reveal a secret!!
Its the subject of much speculation and controversy- an urban legend that, until now, has never been confirmed to those outside of law enforcement:

The "Get Out Of Jail Free" card, does exist (and I ain't talkin Monopoly here). Everybody who votes for me will receive one card! If you are pulled over by law enforcement, just present this card and you will not receive a citation for minor offenses. (Speeding, red light, stop sign, etc.- DUI, reckless, you're on your own). Also, you will not be arrested for misdemeanor crimes not involving violence!

I can reveal this secret because I am completely anonymous here- no one knows or can discern my identity or location. I'm practically invisible! By using sophisticated software and hardware everyone thinks I am in Phoenix- not..hehehe.. well, you know.

So lets get votin' and I'll get the cards movin'

Wow!! I just saw a bunch of reasons to vote for Woodsplinter. I'd tell you exactly how many, but I ran out of fingers and toes trying to count all of them!!!

The xm757 served the 3 Pershing 1A battalions in Germany and the field artillery school at Ft Sill, OK, for about 12 years until 1983-85, when the heavier Pershing 2 replaced it. A vintage picture:

With less than 200 truck tractors ever delivered (all in 1969), it's a rare vehicle and many parts were exclusively designed for it, so parts hunting is fun. One of few trucks designed from scratch to military specifications.
More images of my project:

Question , do you have to "own" a mv or can you use one that you had control/possesion/signed for?????:whistle:
I'd have some awesome pics to post up of an M1A1 in full OIF I glory if we were allowed to post pictures of MV's we've signed for!! That nice Half Track wouldn't stand a chance!!! It's gotta be one of your family members or one of your friends ¨current¨ family members to be entered.

Actually...by "member", I meant a current member of SteelSoldiers.

Anyhoo...it does not matter in this thread as this is the "Vote" thread. I'm pretty sure the above is written in the MV of the Month Nomination thread when posted.:beer:

PB,
My MV's are part of my ¨Family¨. I think alot of people consider them as such so that was my gist concerning a ¨Family Member¨. My Family expanded when the M35A2, M1028, M105A2, and M1102 joined Lee, Joey, Briggs and myself over the past few years.

Here's a few shots at the Halls, TN Air Show, done at a old B17 training base every year....

We try to do 1 event a month. This month we are going to set up at a Boy Scout Camporee. There will be over 200 young people to show this to. Hopefully to get them started in the hobby......

I spend more on fuel on my buddy's semi hauling them around than you can imagine.

Well since show season is upon us up in the Northeast the smart vote would be for the mule. Why? Well when you find that hidden treasure and start carrying it through the show and think man this is getting heavy I wish I had a ride for this. Well have no fear the mule is here. I offer free transport to all that vote for the mule right to your car or MV. So save your back and vote for me!!!20140420_170342.jpg
