I have two trucks to pick up at Smyrna, a shop van and a M818. I have been debating what would be the safest and cheapest way to get them home. Go get them with my M35 and tow one home and drive the other, or go in my pickup and drive both of them back. I am leaning towards going in the M35 and...

Is this the correct place to pick up at Smyrna? I won a tractor there this week. This is a national guard place isn't it? Do you have to go through a gate and sign in and get searched etc or do you just meet the GL rep there...
Any suggestions on how to not be logged out for inactivity? I tend to log in to SS in the morning and go through the new postings throughout the day. It seems though that if I am busy, I will come back and I have been logged out. That means I have missed all of the new messages that I have...
Can you back a standard M35A2 up to a loading dock and drive a fork lift into it? Or is there even such a thing as a standard height for loading docks? I am assuming there is since trucks back up to them and are unloaded with forklifts.
This just sold on GL. I was going to bid on it but it closed on my day off and I forgot about it. It brought more than I would have paid considering how far away it was from me.
It had an AC unit just like the M1010 ambulance. I am guessing it goes on the M1028 that has the AC compressor in...
I have two choices on titling my new truck. I can go to my insurance agent and get a title bond for $100 on the spot and go across the street to the court house and get a bonded title all in one day with very little trouble. Or I can do it with a form 97 the GL way.
I have done two salvage...
I found these in my new M35 I just got back from Lavina. There were 2 of the small black things in the glove box and the big green thing in the floor. Several of the trucks next to mine had one of the big green things new in the box.
Could the green thing be a wheel chock? It had a wooden...
I am having trouble with SpelChek on my office computer. It will run SpelChek when you click the button and highlight the misspellings but when you correct them it doesn't change in the post. On my laptop, it highlights the misspelled words as you type and you can right click and correct...
I was approached today by someone wanting deuce axles for a 4x4 project he was working on. I told him I didn't have any M35 axles but did have a M135 that I might part with. He didn't have a clue to what I was talking about but still wants to come look at them. Anybody have any thoughts on...
I just uploaded some pictures of some of the stuff I will have for sale at the swap meet.

This is my final version of this. I bought service manuals on eBay but they turned out to be medium duty truck instead of light duty truck manuals. Must be why they were so cheep. :)

Anybody going to the Little Rock convention (or in NE Mississippi ) have a tailgate or seats for a M1009 for sale?
Or am I the only one on the list going to the convention?
I just got a registered letter from GL stating that an item I had bought has had its Demil status changed from B/Q to C and that I had 19 days to make arrangements to return it. I remember reading a thread somewhere where someone else had gotten one of these a few weeks ago. Anyone else gone...
How are people mounting their tag?
I have about got my daily driver M1009 ready for the road but I haven't found a good place for the tag. While I was in Autozone, I was told that several people had been in recently buying tag light bulbs for their cars. Apparently the Mississippi Highway...
