Hi everyone, new to me M1078 member based in Reno NV. Bought the M1078 from Eric Hines of BuiltMFG. One item still seeking is a tan tailgate if anyone wants to sell or trade for a second 55gal fuel tank as I have a spare. Nice to meet everyone!

The ticket was outbound in our suburban rental - I will not be speeding EVER in an LMTV. Yes on the high speed gears, and cruising speed seemed best at 55 on the odometer which showed 63mph on GPS. At that speed the fan rarely turned on except when climbing grades, cruising get was typically...
I just saw this, but arrived in Reno late last night, hope safely. It was a great journey, with the lower passes in Ely and Eureka, and Austin all covered in snow. Two of them were blizzard conditions, but the LMTV plowed through, just took it slow. I'd very much like to meetup, will send you...
In Grand Junction - EGT hit 916 on the biggest climbs otherwise 414 at 65mph by gps. It’s running so well decided to press on, great stereo, pretty quiet too. Maggie has taken a stretch.
Maggie and I blasted from Reno to Denver in one day yesterday, and are doing our walkthrough this morning. New can airbags were installed yesterday in order to help the drive be more comfortable. Had one encounter with LE at about 12:30 am. Small over speed ticket but really frustrating that...

Hello,
Newer to the forum, and have been absorbing all of the great information - as well as the LMTV Facebook page. I was able to procure a LMTV from another member here in Denver, and am planning the trip home to Reno Nevada this week. Currently I am thinking of driving through Colorado...

Looks like the link on the master forum list for classified threads is working fine, so disregard, but the top menu link to classifieds does not link to the forum. I've got a workaround for now!
The classifieds are showing "oops" for me. I assume they are still being imported? Thanks! Nice clean layout. I'm a newbie but have found this forum a tremendous resource.
