Graduation cookout and deuce run in Love, VA 6-5-10

June 5, 2010 high school graduation cookout and deuce run in Love, VA.

I noticed my 13 year old daughter had been spending a lot of time in the back of the deuce. Much to my horror when I looked in this is what I found. A book, dvd player with Little House on the Prarie in it, a clock, blanket, she was really setting up shop back there.

In Virginia you can not haul anything in a truck with antique tags, got busted hauling trash to the dumpster, my deuce now has truck tags on it.

The tire is great and all, but that Panhead in the background is really sweet!:-D

Thanks for sharing, bummer about the hardware. With dirtbikes and deuces, my wife speaks to me a lot like your wife was addressing you. :roll:

Good looking truck, nice find. :-D:-D

Way to go on a safe recovery. Thanks for the info, folks will read this and think they better take a cutoff saw or hacksaw on their next recovery. If not for all the good info posted on here my recovery would not have been as smooth as it was. :-D

I have read a lot of posts on here about NDT's not being good in the snow, and lowering pressures, I run stock NDT and did not lower the air pressure, had no problems running between 25-35 MPH.

The snow was any where from 24 to 28 inches deep on the roads that had not been plowed. You can see in this pic the snow was over the axles when I left the driveway.

Went out this evening to pick up a neighbors wife, she had been at work at a nursing home since Friday.

Went to pick up my neighbors wife, she had been at work at a nursing home since Friday. This was Sunday evening about 1600.

I tried 6x6 low to get out of my driveway, not enough speed, backed up and ran 6x6 high the entire trip.
