    Welcome to the family disease--err, infection--err... Well, you know what I mean. We have lots of members spread on both the wet and dry sides of the state.

    What Is This ?

    At first glance, that looked to me like a primitive air dryer. I've driven some older trucks that had something like that on them. Then I did some research on the german written on the first cannister, and had my suspicions confirmed. Sort of. Unless I'm misreading what my research is turning...

    Hey there, from Eastern Oregon/Washington

    From Port Orchard and Centralia, Welcome! It's nice to see another Pacific Northwest member. Have you considered narrowing your location in WA in your profile? I think it's a site requirement. Just sayin'. You know, before a mod says something. They usually do, eventually. Welcome to the green...

    2014 VIN Info Thread

    Quick question on the two trucks I asked about, if/when someone has a little spare time to help lessen my ignorance... I see that the second truck's displayed registration number (the one I got off the truck itself) is different from what you were able to discover in your research. The...

    Ricks Deuce build

    That's gonna be a long drive around the Sound, then. Bring your earplugs. And probably pack a lunch. But then again, a pretty good excuse for a nice long airing of the MV of your choice. Like any of us really need an excuse, right?

    Ricks Deuce build

    Take the ferry in one of your MVs and let us know how much it costs and how the ferry crew reacts. I'm not brave enough to try it with one of mine. +) Hel, I don't even like taking the ferry with my work truck.

    Legal Issues that could effect all MV Owners

    I have to agree with Tow4, I think it's best to keep the definition as short and simple as possible. Cover all bases as succinctly as possible, casting as wide a definition as possible allowing for no legal exemption loopholes that clerical drones can exploit to deny an MV's legal operation. As...

    The Official m101-series-bed-on-a-pickup-truck pics thread

    Ahem. I hate to start an argument, but... That's not a '60 Travelette. I'd need to see the grille to know what year for certain, but IH didn't add a driver's side rear door to the Travelettes untill the C series later on in the '60s. The A series (1957-'58) and B series (1959-'60 for the small...

    2014 VIN Info Thread

    I have two trucks I would like information on, please. The first one's year is listed on its data plate, and matches the year on the engine plate. The second one's data plate is blank for year of manufacture and manufacturer name, but the engine plate is dated 1986. 1983 AMGeneral M923 WO/W a...

    PNW Info Thread!

    The Palletized Load System (PLS) is the largest of the Oshkosh HEMTT family of trucks. It's a monster. A PLS is basically a five-axle HEMTT with an increased payload capacity and self-handling capability. It's not really a tractor, not really a flatbed, not really a standard cargo truck. It's...

    PNW Info Thread!

    Yeah... Low, and clearly not long enough for the PLS it's carrying. That's a big truck. Always wanted one of those.

    Legal Issues that could effect all MV Owners

    Okay, so I'm really new to all of this. I've wanted a deuce and a half all of my life. Of course, I was young and ignorant, and didn't realize what I really wanted was a 5-ton. Now I have one, and I'm learning an awful lot thanks to this community and the forums here. It's been an eye-opening...

    PNW Info Thread!

    Joelstevens21: I'm new to this forum and to Military Vehicle ownership, but fortunately I just had this conversation with a nice clerk down at the Department of Licensing in Chehalis, WA. They were most helpful and informative. I will share what I was told, but I make no guarantees as to its...

I only stumbled across this thread last night, just finished getting caught up on it a few minutes ago. Being a currently...

    Centralia WA Dec. 14, 2013 Lighted Tractor Parade

    I'm a little late to this party, but I just wanted to say I saw this parade and the vehicles you guys fielded. This was my first year watching the Lighted Tractor Parade. Mainly i was there to see the IH products that turned up, being a long-time diehard IH addict. But then i saw the military...
