Towing a dead M1083 with M1079

[Third From Texas]

I confirmed this morning that my truck does NOT do this. Engine running in neutral - truck rolls easily down my slightly sloped driveway when the parking brake is disengaged. I have ZERO drag. My driveway is only very mildly sloped.

Odd. I'll have to do a video as I said. Mine does not free roll forward on a mild incline (never has). It's not brakes, because as soon as I shut off the ignition it will roll as you guys describe. I figure that it must be the trans that's holding it in place in N.

Next time you are about in the truck, see if parking it facing down hill produces any different experience.

Why are so many trucks on govplanet missing the doors?

I personally think someone is building a fort out of the doors. Nothing else makes sense.

Armored Doors - Removed by your gooberment - To Protect You from pinching your fingers in those heavy doors. OR just to be sure that they don't allow armor to be sold to the masses...

But the doors aren’t armored.

Well it is easier to pull a door than to strip out the hardware to hold as spares...

Somewhere there is a truck headed to excess with a bed full of stripped doors

IF there is a truck full of "stripper" doors, Chucky SURELY knows about it and has a GPS tracker on it!!

Does anyone recall when towing is to occur or have we walked too far beyond that?

@Guyfang is secretly a long time pea picker and known to be boonswaggler on weekends !

 

[Guyfang]

I am coming up in the world. I thought it was Hornswaggler.

DID YOU SEE IT? Do you know someone you can trust, who saw it? If not, then it like the story about the lost Dutchmans mine.
