This is not my bike but this one of what I am talking about. Its 500cc single cyl like an old Norton Matchless you have to be careful starting it and use the decompression lever or you can end up sitting on the ground in front of the bike with a very sore ankle. I am in AZ for the winter...

No one has mentioned the old and brand new still built Royal Enfield Military bike. You can buy a brand new one for about $5,500,00. It is 50s tech but parts are avail and it looks good just do a search for Royal Enfield it used to be a british bike but now make in India. I have one and its...

Here is how we do it in a Hummer and I did try it with my 6X6s and it helps but does not work as well. Eddy The HUMMER diffs were designed for ease of use by military drivers, and it's my understanding from talking to many military HMMWV drivers that they have NEVER heard of "brake-throttle...

Looks like a lot of fun but being old and bust up I flee the cold and head to AZ for the winter. Eddy

Hello again troops I am back for another winter. I am in Apache Junction for the next few months and would love to do a coffee or beer with anyone and get a MV fix while I am here. I have a small collection at home but nothing here so already am in withdrawal. If anyone is interested in getting...

I was in OZ once and there was a camp with trucks like that. Eddy

Greetings always great to get more members from The Great White North. Eddy

My DUKW barely moves the needle on the gauge at idle but does go up to 35 PSI when driving. Eddy

They entered service about 1952 and were still used in the Militia units until the late 80s. Almost all of them were made in Canada and had the auto trans. I have only heard of a very few with manual transmissions and almost all of them were the fuel or water hauling trucks. Eddy

Glad you have found some help and that Wallmart is letting you stay. I was broke down in Billings many yrs ago in a Motor home and the local Police came to the Wallmart parking lot and told me there was no overnight parking and that I had to move it or it would be ticketed. It did not matter to...
