    PASSED/SIGNED: Texas MV Bill Moving thru Senate

    Found the time to read through the bill last evening, and have re-read it this morning. I agree that the Bill as signed has little to no effect upon the FMV Laws of the State of Texas so long as "radical modifications" have not been made to the vehicle(s). Th only area I would question is the...

    RAILROAD CROSSING SAFETY - Sheriff Officer Hit - could have been any of us.

    Thank you, 98G, for that well thought and equally well written summation of this incident. This is the essence of why we respect and are so appreciative of our first responders in every discipline - Police, Firefighters, Medics, etc.. Not everyone is willing to run TOWARD danger. These brave...

    RAILROAD CROSSING SAFETY - Sheriff Officer Hit - could have been any of us.

    OK, Tony.... Confession time! Tell us what YOUR mom never knew you did down by the railroad tracks. BTW, as I believe, when Mom arrived in heaven all, yes ALL of my nondisclosures were made known to her.... and Dad was probably right next to her laughing and saying, "That's my boy!" FYI, my...

    RAILROAD CROSSING SAFETY - Sheriff Officer Hit - could have been any of us.

    Luv U 2 Ahab!!! Not a game of "one-up-man-ship" here. I'm just reminded again that "There but for the grace of God" Darwin would have thinned the herd pretty radically our childish mis-steps. Thanks to GOOGLE EARTH I have returned to the old neighborhood. Those tracks upon which we played...

    RAILROAD CROSSING SAFETY - Sheriff Officer Hit - could have been any of us.

    FLASHBACK ALERT ! Ahab, you just reminded me of what was probably my most stupid train episode. At about 13 years of age a few of us climbed upon UNDER a railroad trestle and, while a train was lumbering overhead, we dared one another to stick our head(s) up between the ties.... Dang...

    Source for axe handle brackets, shovel bracket?

    Maybe I'm missing something here... Are you talking about a Pioneer Tool Rack? Or, are these individual brackets? For what vehicle, please?? (I presume for a Mutt, but I'm still unfamiliar with such a critter.) Thanks.

    Seized my engine!

    Donner1122: That's a truck worthy of resuscitation. To quote the opening line from THE SIX MILLION DOLLAR MAN: "We have the technology. We can rebuild him." And, with that, I encourage you to bring this fine specimen of an vintage MV back to life, Sir.

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Indeed, Rocky. As with any containment for abatement... much like in prepping - sometimes its just best to "shelter in place" than to start mingling with the monsters that seek to do you harm.

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    OK - Thanks to 59apache's eagle-eye and his courteous PM pointing out a fine telltale detail, I stand corrected on my previous statement. The truck shown IS A DEUCE.... https://www.steelsoldiers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=756189 And NOT a 5-ton as I professed it to be. Now for my...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    A quick glance at the clearance between the front fender and the back of the front tire (extra wide) readily shows her to be a 5-Ton. The presence of the horizontal air filter canister on the RIGHT HAND fender shows this 5-Ton to have a multi-fuel engine as is common in Deuces. This...
