Dave, I showed off some pics of the GA rally at the thanksgiving shindig last week. When the slide show got to your goat the first time, my cousin yelled "WTF is THAT?!" Each time it came up again, he did the doghead shiver and went a little more insane.

I haven't heard back from anyone. Did you get my pm, Rob?

Nice lookin' truck. One thing, though. I think your cargo cover is on backwards. :wink:

There are several M211's pretty close to my shack, DH. Want to drag one home after haspin?

I've found that the bed of a deuce makes a pretty fair stand-in for bleachers.

Here's the haspin thread. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?t=27588 It's a blast. Looks like it could get pretty big this year, too.

This one's camping out at my place until it can hitch a ride to TX.

So how about some of those stories? Welcome aboard!

Centerburg, eh? You're not too far from me. The invite is always open... A deuce is actually pretty comfortable to sleep in, but hopefully she'll forgive you before it comes to that.

What kind of info are you looking for? It's a pretty nice looking truck, by the way.

That is a good link. A couple of other cool MV's in some of the pics, too.

If you scroll all the way to the bottom of this page, you'll see a list of related threads. I took a peek, and it looks like your question about the search feature might be there. Good luck!

Good to hear from ya' Hank! I see you finally fixed your avatar. You have a hat packed for this year?

I've been trying to find these pics since the m/c forum got started. I put my scruffy old M715 in a car show several years ago and the only other MV to show up was this BSA motorcycle. Unfortunately, I was too busy answering questions about my rig to talk with the guy much. It turns out we'd...

This is the only pic I could find on my machine. I'll dig around and see what else I have.

There are two holes side-by-side, but one is a little deeper and longer than the other. Both have pretty hard bottoms. Then there's another big sloppy mess not too far away that's just full of goo. Mama bird made it through that one on the ATV, but stretch's flattie sank pretty quick. Then ole'...

Yes, indeedy! In fact, the spot where the goofy orange ford is parked used to be part of the yard. I need to get more limestone hauled in...

They do go back together pretty easy, but you have to take it slow so you don't nick something and end up with a leak. I found it was easiest to have a spotter under the truck to guide things and someone outside doing the pushing.

S'pose kwai will come up and drive his M49 out there? Ahh, there's still some residual diesel in the tank, and it'd be bad juju to pump it out on the ground.

To answer your question about noise and comfort in a 5 ton vs. a deuce, no. The noise is either about the same or louder in an M818, depending on the individual truck. The older multifuel 5 tons are noisier than either one, in my experience. And a mountain will have you crawling with a load...
