I was told by a DPS officer who administers the test that if you are driving with a Class B Exempt license, i.e. for an RV, firetruck, etc, and are stopped in something other than Exempt vehicle, RV, firetruck, etc, then you would be ticketed for driving out of class. The odds of getting...

The average person can't get a Class B that's non-CDL due to all the hoops you have to jump through (I've been trying for 6 months). I was told for a Class B for an RV that'd I'd have to take the driving portion in the RV. They wouldn't allow me to simply rent a 26k Ryder truck - had to be the...

Anyone notice what the M37 in Idaho went for? Last I looked it was kind of high for one needing a complete restoration.

While the data plate is probably a moot point since it's a converted tractor, it's likely still going to have a GVW of over 26k pounds, which in Texas means you need a CDL (and in the case of a 939 series, an Air Brake Endorsement) to legally drive it.

I've been involved with the MVPA since '07. At one point I was in 3 different chapters, 2 in TX (Alamo and Lone Star, and then National). I let the Alamo and National memberships lapse since I didn't feel like I was getting much out of either of those organizations. Yesterday I renewed my...

We had a guy try a scam insurance claim that way. Said he drove through some deep water and hydrolocked the engine. Sure enough there was water in the cylinder but the air intake was still dusty. When we had the water tested it turned out to be tap water. We told him next time he should put...

If you have a frame mounted reciever hitch all limits assigned to a M1009 are out the window. A lot of that was due to the pintle hitch being mounted on a fairly flimsy bumper. Just Google the specs for a 1986 Chevy Blazer with a tow package. That should give you all the info you need. The...

If you have his user name go to the top right of this page, click notifications, then in the drop down box click inbox. When you're in the "inbox" on the left is the PM function, click "send new message" and start typing his user name in the TO box. It should pull up there and you just send...

You have his name or user ID?

At or above 100 here for the last week and through next week. Very little chance of rain either.

And a deuce dogbone in a GL lot?

Probably going to be there tomorrow with the M37. A bit too hot for me to drive the M923.

Not at all. I just don't like it when someone drops in for the sole purpose of something like that. If you're here and throw that out, okay, but just signing up for no other reason? And of course, I could be wrong and he'll be here the next ten years posting. But I'm not really expecting it.

While I have no dog in this fight it sounds to me like the above poster simply did a google search for the business' web site, found a thread here about the business, then signed up to SS for the sole purpose of bashing him - seeing as he just signed up and his only post is on this thread...

I also have New In The Box cab reinforcement kits if anyone is interested. Shipping is pricey ($50-$80 depending on location) so if you can, local pick-up is advised.

As mentioned earlier this is just a FIXED storage point. The pod is filled with the trailer in place. If it gets moved at all it will simply be around my VERY flat property.

Oh great. I put my name down and immediatly there is concern that it's going to be messed up. I'm not controlling it, just supporting it. And I SWEAR she said she was 18 (advance apologies to those that don't get my sense of humor - it's a large percentage of the population).

I'm in. PM sent.

Any pressure from the hydraulics even when resting?

And the deuce inventory was pretty much depleted before this latest stall. If you want a M35 (any variation) they're probably already out of the govt's hands. On line civilian auctions are a crap shoot with people thinking they're sitting on bricks of gold when they're not. Your best bet is...
