Default pick up at wright-patterson OH

Hey all, EUC just cleared on my M817, Did anyone else get one of these from up there. If so did they start or what where any problems, I know each one will be different but i talked with the GL rep. from there "Dave", and he said he had no way of enev "jumping" the vehicle if the batteries were dead. I thought most of these places would at least give a jump start or a push so you could load them on a trailer. How is a driver supposed to load one up if he cant get any help with a jump start. Also is this a 2 or 4 battery truck. Any help would be appreciated.

Closest person to give it a jump might be JW4x4 but you would have to PM him. Not sure if he's checked out on the 809 series, I know I'm not!

I'm about 12 miles from the site.

I believe the 817 has the Cummins 250 in it and that it uses 4 batteries.

I'm not checked out on an 817 but I wasn't on the Deuce either when I drove it 350 miles on my first recovery.

I may be able to help out or I can get my Brother to help you.

Just let me know.

I guess I haven't made an impression on you.
