    Any interest in a Houston-Galveston Area Rally?

    :ditto: I had a great time as well. Not to mention, there were some mighty fine looking trucks... I'm looking forward to catching-up with everyone in Bryan next month.

    My buddy (The Pizza Shack's owner) is saving a room for us on February 8 and asked for a rough head count. Hopefully we have a big turn-out! Please let me know if you plan to join us and if you are bringing family/friends. I'm looking forward to the convoy and will see y'all at Kroger at...

    Gas can tie down

    73m819 - You are right. It appears that running the strap underneath will cause wear. When I pulled the can holder this evening, I found the remnants of an old strap... A lingering piece of canvas strap and decades worth of pebbles were waiting for me under the can holder.

    Deuce muffler option

    Patriot Exhaust Auger Insert I'm curious about the Patriot Exhaust auger inserts. A quick search on SS shows that a few guys are using them and there is no cutting or welding required -- just insert in the exhaust pipe. Are they really that simple? Do they rattle (ha ha, as if my truck...

    Gas can tie down

    SaskCanuck, I'll tattle on myself and hopefully make you feel better. There's safety in numbers, right? :beer: I recently got a gas can and strap for the driver's step of my M35A2. I ran the vertical strap under the gas can and through the front and back loops on the holder (i.e., not under...

    How stuck have you gotten your Deuce PICS OR IT DIDNT HAPPEN

    If I was able to drive out of the hole without assistance, was I really stuck? Easing in the first time, I was not able to make it all the way through. After a little rocking (which I believe the TM says not to do -- and for good reason), the truck came backing out. Naturally, if going slow...

    "How to get a HET in life..." - M1070 Acquisition thread

    So to put this in terms I understand, should I ever have the pleasure of owning an HET, I need to plan on two loans from the bank... One to buy the truck and a second for the first oil change!! :doh::doh: On a more serious note, I have really enjoyed following your story and checking out the...

    My old Stolly

    Thanks! Yes, I liked that truck. As for my launch.... I think M813rc said it well, "shiver, shiver, chicken noises..." I eased down the boat ramp and stopped in 5 feet of water for a full inspection. According to the previous owner, that truck had not seen the water in over 6 years. I got up...

    My old Stolly

    Gunzy, that has got to be my favorite Stolly video. I've probably seen it one hundred times. Every time I'm telling someone about the truck and they say, "What's that"... I show them that video.
