    Compliance with DOT???

    Unfortunately, you are wanting more than the law will allow.:wink: You are suppose to be legal in any state if you are legal in your home state. In my state, I would be legal. The trick is proving it to every LEO you meet on the trip. Another problem seems to me to be that the bar just...

    GL wants my Deuce back

    First I would like to say that the original poster should thank his lucky stars that he posted here and that Chief_919 saw it and got that number for you. GL sure wouldn't have given it to you and you would have probably had to take that truck back. I bet that there are very few people on the...

    GL wants my Deuce back

    If you respond that you have sold part but not all of the item they will want what you have left back. I know this from first hand experience.

    California Police Vehicle Weight Limit

    That second article is even worse than the first. The meals and lodging is outright ludicrous. $3,638.90 in lodging. They will spend five nights, from Oct. 4 to Oct. 8, in Ohio at $127.46 per person. During the five nights on the road, the hotels will cost $115 per person. Where are they...

    California Police Vehicle Weight Limit

    $19000 just to get a truck back to the factory for warranty work. No wonder they are going broke. I wonder if the three deputies have their CDLs?

    Saveable ? What's it worth ?

    If I were serious about getting a M37, and this was close to me, I would go ahead and get them. I wouldn't fix them though, I would use them for parts. I think $500 is top dollar for them and not a bargain to just pick up in case I might build a M37 some day. One thing to consider is that...

    Wisconsin dot to propose mv ban

    I thought everyone was adding WVO and WMO to their fuel as a fuel additive to increase the new diesel fuel's lubrication.:wink: Keep up the good work fighting the WI DOT and keep us informed

    Huntsville City Limits weight restrictions

    It was mentioned at this years convention. I don't see anything on the website, but I only took a quick glance: Suppose to be back at Dayton in 2011 and Huntsville in 2012. Military Vehicle Preservation Association

    Compliance with DOT???

    OK, but you can't exclude deuces or even M1008s if you pull a trailer if you cross state lines or live in NY or GA and are involved in any form of commerce. If you are over 26000 within your state or over 10000 outside your state and involved in commerce you need a DOT number and all the...

    Exploding M1009 spare

    MWMULES was selling those at the MVPA convention. They do make good tire covers.

    Exploding M1009 spare

    I second the company policy idea. I went to Sam's Club to buy one new tire on my daily driver. They had sold my wife one tire about 6 months before because the truck likes to eat the inside edge of the front tires. Now they refused to put the new tire back on the front. It is now company...

    Question on batteries, how to test them

    I have never seen a M1008 with four batteries. How does he have them wired up?

    Showing off my new M1010 Ambulance!

    I would like to see some pictures on how they did that, it isn't stock.

    Question on batteries, how to test them

    If they are in the truck you can turn the headlights on.

    A couple of pick-ups like that in a row and you might even be cured of the green fever.

    Pic from 2009 MVPA Evansville

    I finally uploaded my pictures today: Michael : photos : MVPA09 I didn't take as many as I usually do. Something about the heat just puts me out of the mood.

    Yet another horror story about Creekside (OH)

    Is this one of the two indoor warehouses where almost all of the indoor stuff is ending up? I wonder if they have figured out that it wasn't such a good idea to funnel all of the nation's surplus through two outlets?

    2009 MVPA Convention: SteelSoldiers attendance

    I plan on leaving here about noon on Wed and staying til it is over. I have a camping spot and table space B2. I still have a lot of the same stuff I have been bringing, but I don't plan to bring as much as I have been. I am leaving all the junk at home this time and only bring what I think...
