I try to take pictures of every vehicle when I go to a convention, but I missed a few this time. Regardless, I have 200+ pics of the event all posted here:

Enjoy!
We had a really good time. The National MVPA and the associate chapters always put on good events and this was no exception.
We had a nice table next to GovPlanet. The Kansas members helped us unload and load and let us borrow some carts.
We saw all of our friends, many of whom we only get...
Clintogf received your PM but she hasn't had a chance to respond. We're in Topeka, Kansas at the MVPA national convention as vendors and have been slammed busy every day from about 0500 until midnight and she hasn't had a chance to respond. She just sent you a pm. Sorry for the delay.
You'd have to assume it's just something that was used for recruiting or some other kind of PR purposes (going to middle schools and talking to kids, etc.).
The 4 cylinder engines are a lot less common. The 2 cylinder engines are also used with one of the small generators, so they're a lot easier to come by.
I suspect SS classifieds, G503 mule forum, eBay, etc are going to end up being your best bet.
I would talk to Emery as well. SS user...
We got our tables set up and left for a few hours to ship a cargo cover kit that sold on eBay. We left early and are hanging out in the room a mile from the convention center. We'll be back first thing tomorrow.
The display area for vehicles is small but the vendor area is large. We have...
We are section 18, tables 1,2 and 3. We're right next to the GovPlanet HMMWV. Everybody come and visit with us - we brought 4 chairs so friends can sit down for a bit with us.
We'll be setting up our vendor space tomorrow morning. At some point tomorrow we have to take one of the cargo...
We're going to be leaving within the hour. Have to drop the dog and cat off at my parent's house, then we're off. I think we're going to split the drive into 2 days, we we'll get a room somewhere tonight. It's 950+ miles one way for us. Not sure we want to do all that in one shot.
When you clicked on it and the line "playback on other websites has been disabled by the video owner" showed up, the sentence "watch this video on youtube" is above it. That's a link to the youtube page with the video.
Some video owners do not want their videos to be viewable when they're...
eBay and military vehicle swap meets. We bought a bunch of brand new in the box GI surplus headlights at the 2012 MVPA National Convention super cheap.
I think people should thank the poster for putting this out there. I think things like this are a very effective reminder that all vehicles, but especially 20-50 year medium duty three axle trucks require a real and effective maintenance program.
I think sometimes we are quick to castigate...
No. The deer hunting opening season is the third weekend, we're the fourth weekend, so we will have total access to the trails, night and day, such as in previous years.
It fits in a groove. It'll make sense when you install it. You start it at one side and get the gasket under the lip and work your way around the circumference.
I looked all over their site and I don't see the model I bought-I could have sworn I just bought a universal bleeder with the quick disconnect already on it-I looked in my email to see if I had a receipt or a part # for my model and came up zero. If I were you, I'd call or email them and tell...
The reason(s) everyone is telling you that one sucks is as follows:
1. It uses vacuum to pull the brake fluid out of the bleeder, versus using pressure to push it through. I have an ancient Vacula setup and I never use it anymore. Pressure bleeding is where it's at.
2. Your hand would be...
I have this issue with my Samsung Galaxy S4. Take the image in a vertical format or shoot with the shutter button on the left and the image will show up here improperly.
I am sure there's an easier way to fix this but I haven't figured it out. But I am uploading them to photobucket and then...
I've now had this upgrade on my truck for almost 6 months and it's awesome. The new Napa relay is so heavy duty that I can use my unit to test other trucks. I had one customer's truck that had a bad turn signal switch that smoked a new repro relay but mine survived with no issues (in this case...
