Whether I'm sure or not I don't bet money or gamble in any way shape or form.
I found all the codes searching google, I don't recall the code number or which VA site it was on but I'm sure I can find it again if you would like. I'm still waiting to hear back from my state trooper friend, he...
Yep I'll just be sure to carry around the copy of the code that is the version I want. After talking to my buddy that inspects large trucks I think I'm going to just register with regular truck tags. The tag fee and the personal property tax really isn't a lot of money to be able to drive it...
I'm not accepting any challenges, but I will post the info when I receive it. So far everything I have looked up including the lights on the truck I've found a law that contradicts it. For example I found a code written that shows if a vehicle didn't come with certain safety equipment such as...
I called him but I assume he was sleeping because he's probably on midnight shift. I sent him a text though and I'll let you know as soon as I hear back from him.
I looked through that the other day and didn't find anything saying who HAD to stop, but I'll read through it again.
My friend isn't just any state trooper, he works the weigh stations in the Bristol district and works with the DOT guys that stop trucks so I think he's more than qualified to answer the question. If it wasn't for the fact he works the weigh stations and works with DOT guys I would not have even...
That's not true, if it was just about every 3/4 ton truck would have to weigh in. I specifically asked my friend that's a VA state trooper and he said I wouldn't have to weigh in with the deuce.
I was browsing the site, and didn't even see a classifieds section. Do my newb powers prevent me from seeing it? I don't want to bug Mr.Ramsey but when I call him this week to set up when we're doing the transaction I'll be sure to ask if he has another for sale. Do give me a shout when you get...
What does it run for a locker and install. I have a good friend that works at a driveline shop in springfield and mainly does big trucks so I'm sure I could probably get a pretty good deal on the labor.
Also anybody have a idea where I can get the 11X20 Michelins or Goodyears? I looked on berg...
Yeah that's probably him, I found him on CL. He said they run, but they haven't been driven around. The biggest thing that bothered me with him was he wouldn't take a 50% deposit to hold one I liked and said it would take him 5 weeks to get a title and would cost a extra $500 for the title. The...
I will definitely drop you a line when I get it. I need to find a good mud hole to run it through. I've got a ton of property all over VA, have some out near Front royal that has a good mud hole I could probably modify a little with the tractor and work on the trails some too to make it deuce...
Thanks for the reply. I don't actually live in Falls Church, I live in Fairfax County with a Falls Church Mailing address. I know a few guys in FFX with tractors that cops can't do anything about despite neighbor complaints. I've got a very large driveway but I'm sure the yuppie neighbors will...
Once again thanks a lot for the replies. I'm going to go ahead and register as antique mainly so I don't have to put all the lights and stuff on it cars are required to have to pass inspection.
I went out and test drove the one Mr.Ramsey is selling and I was in love before we even took it on...
Ohh ok, I wasn't really sure, his add mentioned having A3's and when I called and talked to him he never said they weren't and said the winch models were $3500. Either way I'm not buying one from him anyway though, I didn't much care for his attitude about it, theres no reason he can't take a...
Thanks again for all the information. The ones he has for sale are supposedly A3's. The guy seemed shady though and when I asked him if I could leave a deposit for whichever truck I picked out that I liked and came back with the rest and to pick up the truck he said he wouldn't do that even...
Andy it will mainly just be for having fun, sometimes with having fun comes a 4 wheeler or a bunch or guns but neither of those are really a load for a deuce and should be easily explained to a officer that I'm going out for a weekend of fun. Do you know approximately how much I could expect to...
Thanks for the welcome and the quick reply. What is a good GVW to tell them? I'm pretty sure anything over 26,001lbs in VA you have to have a CDL for so I guess I would want to keep it at 26K. What do the trucks with winch, troop carrier, and top typically weigh full of fuel?
Really the only...
I've wanted a Deuce and a half for a while not and finally found one in pretty good shape that needs batteries and fluids changed for $4200 somewhat locally.
My question is how on earth to I register, inspect, and insure this thing? I google searched but didn't find any answers pertaining to my...
