    Just bought my first Deuce!!

    This bad boy was at our local REGIONAL air port last week. They had to park it in a particular spot because it was the only place at the airport that would support all the weight. It was pretty awesome.

    Clearing out the cell phone, ran across some more pics from recent...... This one was from moving day. A friend owns the truck and wouldn't let me pay him! He brought a crew of 7 and they had the whole thing loaded in less than 5 hours. In front of the old house...... In front of the new...

    May update. The M715 will not be ready to go this year. Still lots of work to do to her. However, we have my deuce and m105. The m977 hemtt. And another deuce followed by his bus. The plan currently is to leave Thursday the 11th around 10am or so. With frequent stops I imagine we are...

    Just bought my first Deuce!!

    Ran to the local lumber yard the other day. Loaded up 22 fence panels, and 44 4x4 posts. We were the envy of the yard. My son, as always, was the perfect "soldier B."

    Just bought my first Deuce!!

    Haven't tried sliding her yet. lol The right conditions and I won't hesitate. The day has finally come for us! Wed/thurs we are moving into our new house. This means so many things for us, but the main thing it means for me is that I can finally focus on the truck again. I've been piling...

    Well then we'll just have to see you there! When do you plan on returning? We will be packing up sunday morning and heading back. Probably grab lunch on the way out of the area and let 'er rip.

    MN rally at Drive A Tank Kasota, MN

    If work allows, I would be willing to head over from Wisconsin's west coast! Typically there is another deuce that will tag along, as well as a buddy in his M977.

    Iola 2016 convoy thread

    March is already upon us. Sat tonight with most of the La Crosse, WI crew and we discussed Iola. These three plan to make the trip for sure: I'll be dragging my M105 that i've converted into a camper. The other deuce owner pictured will also be bringing his bus for camping. We will have...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    What did I do to my deuce this week? Nothing new here...........I drove the **** out of her and she loved every minute of it! She gets real thirsty locked into 6x6 all the time though......

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    What seat/base is that? Air ride seat? I'm thinking about upgrading to an air ride, mainly looking for a better seat/better ride, but also looking for more room for ME.

    Just bought my first Deuce!!

    We have had our house on the market for a short while now. My wife refused to let "RC" stay on the property while we are showing. So it has been staying at a friend's house parked next to his newly acquired HEMTT. Luckily, I get updates from the "babysitter" from time to time.... We had a...

    Just bought my first Deuce!!

    Boy, these things are fun! Owning one is an adventure every time you drive it. Did my normal ritual.....went out, checked fluids (mainly to make sure they are still on the inside), and fired her up. Let her warm up for a bit while I walked around kicking tires and checking lights, etc...

    Just bought my first Deuce!!

    They came with posts. Everything was there except the switch, and the wiring from the switch to the poles. I got the beacons, perches, poles, and electrical from one beacon to the next. One perch is bent a little, but nothing we can't handle. Otherwise, really good shape. All moving parts...
