Just can't resist posting some pics of my latest M871 Trailer I picked up today. Its a nice one! 300 mile round trip in the M915A1.

Oh by the way I have pictures of both recoveries in my albums in my profile here, if you care to take a look.

No , fortunately he didn't get a ticket, just explained the situation and all was good. My second M915a1 I bought from andy1234 outside St Louis and drove it home without a single scale open either, stopped in Oklahoma and picked up one of my M871 trailers. 1150 mile trip no problems.

I forgot to mention, when i picked up my M915a1 in Topeka, my father followed my back in the pick up we drove out there to get it. In one of the small towns we passed through a local cop pulled him over wanting to know why he was following that military truck so closely. kinda funny.

I drove my first m915a1 from Topeka Kansas, all scales and check points were closed. Of corse I have my class A CDL and all paperwork and insurance in order just in case. Only had to stop for toll roads points. Here in New Mexico and when I run to El Paso Tx, the DOT waves me through the check...

Nice! Whats the story on the semi trailer?

I was bidding on the two M 931 tractors in Santa Fe, and they disappeared. No explanation why. I was also bidding on the M915a4 freightliner tractors back east afew weeks ago and they were pulled. Email just said they were pulled and would NOT be realised at a later date. So who knows?

Did you get the M936A1? Where was it located?

Great looking truck! And that rare engine paint scheme is cool too, most are just flat black. Congratulations!

Nice tractor! I bet it would do a fine job of sucking a fuel tank dry!

Nice truck! Do you have a matching trailer?

Yes its important. A friend of mine recently got a flat on his lowboy trailer and since it was the outer tire be just pulled it off and ran single about 150 miles to where he was headed. Not thinking he never checked the singled tires pressure and needless to say the tire was almost completely...

Sorry, double post.

I'm not real big on change either, but the world is full of it and its not going to stop for me so I'll get used to it, good or bad.

Thats a sweet set up! I always wanted an M 275A2, but being hard to come by, I gave up long Ago. Now I just have 2 M931's and 2 M 915A1's.:beer:

I just ditched my 6tl batteries in one of my M915A1 tractors. They were interstate 6tls I had bought new when I picked up the truck. Took them back to an interstate distributor and he said according to his book they are only listed at 420 cca! Dang I sure thought they'd be far more than...

Sure, just let me know acouple days ahead so I can make sure I'm around.

Eventually ill change over to the led lights. Just switched over my M871 to them Then paint it 383 green, that should look good!

Roughly 96"W x 360"L

It looks like this trailer is a conversion from some other type of trailer, as one member had said possibly "missle related". It has hydrolic fittings and hoses, and several mounting brackets under it. The "flatbed addition" looks to be well constructed. Still no sign of a data plate.
