Maybe so, maybe not. I have seen some of those "jokes" doing their absolute best, working beyond their God-given capacities. That's why I always check the work of any volunteer Soldier B's the "help" with our MVs. Still, it's a fun photo with which to stir some safe-thinking.

I'm perpetuating this thread (thanks to its general type title) to another thought on TRAILER SAFETY (and inherently, TOWING SAFETY) One MUST be very careful in identifying, selecting, and using SAFETY CHAIN ANCHORAGES...... I think I now comprehend just WHY when I was first introduced to...

As I recall, Gimp, in the past when a railroad forum was proposed or discussed it was "derailed" for lack of moderator manpower. Hence, it has been a topic of such banter seemingly whenever any MV topic comes up wherein railroading - particularly Military Railroading - is even remotely mentioned...

Thanks for posting up the 10-Ton's accomplishment. Gotta luv it ! This dialog reminds me of the intro to the movie THE RIGHT STUFF. The SS Railroad Forum is like that unseen demon, the Sound Barrier. We all kinda "know" it exists, but no one has yet "broken through it". Maybe one day, some...

Just yesterday, the City of San Angelo (Texas) City Council passed a NO TEXTING WHILE DRIVING ordinance which will go into effect on Saturday 1/9/2016. There is much commentary in local media and on social media about this HOT POTATO topic. We shall wait and see where the fallout zone is and...

Welcome aboard :-D Find a bunk, stow your gear, and prepare to get underway :driver: From whom did you inherit your Deuce? Did they run it regularly? When was the last time it was run before you started your tinkering? Was it well maintained before you took possession and just sitting, or...

I understand that Ohio is Ohio and is sovereign in its own LAWS. Which, in summary causes me once more to proclaim: GOD BLESS TEXAS ! Carry on.

I also encountered some pic uploading problems earlier today. Will follow suggestions listed herein at my next opportunity to enlighten the internet with photographic wizardry. Thanks.

H A P P Y . N E W . Y E A R !!! My aplogies for taking such great license with your "no rush" comment above. We just returned from our New Mexico trip last evening (after dark) and finally have gotten some pics for you. As I mentioned, our XM818 is a new acquisition. I had not realized how...

Great way to bring in the New Year. Congratz !

Gotta luv what you can learn about these truck when your sinuses are keeping you up at 0300 hrs. Thanks, gentlemen. John

I apologize that those pics took a back seat to other stuff. As soon as we return to our home LZ I will indeed be taking those pics for you and posting them up. We are currently at my mother-in-law's in New Mexico, but expect to return home Friday - weather permitting.

Just guessing that the fuel for that milk-run cost more than the milk you bought. BUT, I'm also well assured that your smiles-per-miles outweighed any cost overrun there may have been. Carry on, Soldier !

He's one of Santa's undercover elves.

Me thinks YOU won Christmas! What a story! Congratz ! It's amazing what those elves can whoop up in their workshop for good little children. and... Welcome aboard :-D Find a bunk, stow your gear, and prepare to get underway:driver:
