I don't expect that at all...Read the thread. It has nothing, zero, zlich, nada to do with a "cut rate", nor did I ask for it from Eric. This issue has nothing to do with price, (whatever the price is), but has everything to do with honoring the quote that HE gave me and then following up on...

I did and offered him the same $400 that Eric quoted me...[thumbzup]

I am not going to continue to discuss it. I was quoted a price by him which I agreed to and then he has refused to follow up with an email, call or anything. I can most definitely "afford" $700, I am just not going to sink that much into it and possibly have no profit margin left after I get...

The truck didn't have to "clear", because it was purchased from GSA... I got the invoice the next day and the SF97 later that week. There is no army base to deal with or anything like that. It is located at an Alabama surplus property forestry lot. I finally got ahold of Eric by phone and he...

All fine and well, but if you quote a price, ( in this case $400 for 175 miles), then honor that price and more importantly, FOLLOW UP with your customer. Eric has hauled 5 trucks for me over the last two years and I have noticed a steady erosion in customer service from him.

Cap'n....PM sent.[thumbzup]

$700 is not an option nor is it reasonable....The $400 quote for the entire haul is reasonable. Right now, I just need it picked up and stored somewhere close where I can make reasonable arrangements at a later time. If someone else were willing to pick it up and deliver it completely for...

Yeah, it's kind of a bummer...The truck is only 175 miles away from me in Crossville TN and so the haul bill quote was only $400 bucks....I guess he figures it's not worth prioritizing me, but IMO that's bad customer service. If you don't want to haul it or you have gotten too big for the...

I won an M35A2C at the Alabama surplus lot in Eva Alabama. I REALLY need it picked up ASAP. I called Eric Carlson and he quoted me a price and then never returns my call or email. GSA told me my ten days were up on Monday, but I got an extension for a few days. The truck runs with ether...

You outbid me on the last bid because I set my limit at right at $1000...I thought about continuing the bidding, but the FD said the truck had "engine problems", so with that and the transport costs, I passed... I bid on the tank truck for possible conversion to a septic truck. The tank looks...

After a qualified PM from a very knowledgeable member, I was informed that the military tank will implode almost immediately and is not suitable for the extreme poundages of vacuum that is produced by septic vacuum pumps.

Let me say that my uncle did that for 45 years and sold his septic cleaning business several years ago in Maryland...He knows alot about the business end of this, but not so much about these military trucks. I have access to a older deuce water tender. I think it's actually a converted...

Wreckerman, I did plan on hauling it to the local distributor and filling it with regular road diesel...I then plan on storing it in my locked garage. I think we are in for a coming storm on the price of all fuels and I wanted a mobile storage unit to be able to keep 500-1000 gallons of...

Good man~! Thanks much for the info... I have never seen one of these, but I wanted a nice fuel trailer without spending three fortunes for one... I'll probably just remove the complicated pump system and install a simple 12V pump and hose.... A neat, never seen accessory...

I am just east of Cookeville.... I bought it sight-unseen, so I'm not sure what it held previously, but I am almost certain from the design that it's a fuel trailer. I wonder what the plumber's nightmare contraption on the front of the trailer is?
