Well when your in the nutty state of MA drop me a line and i'll buy ya a beer and take ya for a spin in the deuce, although in that order it might not be a great idea...:wink:
Thats a question i can field....this state is loony on the commercial designation. My fathers dodge 3500 dually has to have commercial plates due to the more than 5 wheels on the ground thing. Its just a personal truck for carting wood for home woodstove and the boat to the water. No way on...
Yup, the devil himself is running the state. Haven't dealt with any crud from the state as mine is reg in Maine. Couldn't afford to keep one in MA with what it would end up costing after you figure in the commercial insurance. I didn't know that little chunk on info tho, thanks for the heads up...
These engines seem to have an issue with incomplete combustion below about 1000 and you get nasty wet oily goo in the exhaust. Aside from that, the engine vibes at any lower than 1000 are really hard on the headlight filaments. Take a walk around yours at 750 and 1000, its a lot smoother at 1000.
I may just have to take you up on that as soon as i get some more stuff squared away around here. Be nice to talk to someone else about MV's and not have them think i'm nutty.
Thanks for the link, yeah i suppose that is true on the propane/nat gas thing. Thats certainly an option worth looking into as this will prob be the household backup unit. With regards to the diesel i had some larger plans that just backup duty, it would see some decent hours and for that it...
You guys may remember that i picked up this glowing yellow genset a few months back. Well, i said that i would snap a shot of the data plates and post em up. I finally got around to taking the pics this afternoon. I believe it was will wagner that said he might be able to wrangle some manuals...
Its not so much the gas $$ that scares me as it is the several long days of driving a deuce alone, with a few guys from this neck of the woods heading that way i can see it being much more enjoyable.
