Default Bought a M915A1 today

Dad and I got one of the M915A1 tractors today in Dayton, Ohio. We have been wanting something larger, well here we go! It will be nice to have a semi around for our business, farm and some personal stuff. Getting my paper work in order tonight, hopefully we can pick her up in a week or two....

Cool road tractor. Watch out, now you'll want a low boy trailer to go along with it, which means you can haul bigger toys!

Mee to, you know what they say, sooner or later, you'll own a General . . . I would like to thank Armyman30yearsplus, Dave Frankenhauser, for posthumously convinicing me to buy this . . . his stories about 915's running over 100 mph did it . . . I know it will take the Cat trans to get that speed, though. These trucks have to be one of the best bargains I have ever seen on GL. 400 horse Cummins Big Cam III, I love it!!

Dang, I missed the auction. Oh well, don't (shouldn't) need one anyways. About what did they go for?

I'll wait till there are surplus M920s on GL. And I win the lottery.

Great save! Be sure to post pics of the recovery!
