    So am I nucking futz or not?

    It's a YM1610D, procured from the highly-recommended Little Miami Trading Company. I have it on eBay at the moment and if it sells part of those funds might be going towards procurement of a Deuce: Yanmar YM1610d 4x4 compact diesel tractor powershift - eBay (item 190325333785 end time...

    So am I nucking futz or not?

    Already got one! Unfortunately I'm still stuck with the spark ignition push mower for trimming though BTW you've got an awesome screen name. :wink: Good to see there's at least one other railfan on this board! Do you have any pictures of that M1008 with the HyRail gear in your sig? Somewhere...

    So am I nucking futz or not?

    My "commuter car" is a Jetta TDI. And I'd give my eyeteeth to find a compression-ignition pushmower! My yard is roughly one acre, in an odd "golf club" shape. My brothers both have plenty of acreage that they'll probably let me play around on though, especially if I help 'em cut and move...

    Unfortunately I will be working on those dates (I work every other weekend). :cry: Sounds like a fun time though! The Camp Grayling thing in the fall has always sounded appealing to me too.

    I know a pickup truck will go through it with plenty of room to spare on each side. I do realize that doesn't necessarily mean that a Deuce will however.

    Um, a 404 has spark plugs. I'm afraid that wouldn't work. I am allergic. :oops: Wouldn't mind having an M715...IF it was set up like the one Lee Alessi built!

    This is the second recommendation I've gotten for miltruckman. Guess I'm definitely going to have to scope out his wares!

    So am I nucking futz or not?

    Hi Dale, A few years ago I was wanting an M1009 Blazer. Alas, it seemed as though every one I saw come up for sale was either a thrashed out rust bucket or a parade queen, and I was wanting something that was kinda in the middle of those two extremes...not unlike what I'm looking for in a Deuce!

    I see that the kit retails for aboot 1500 bux a pop, so that is something that would have to come later. But it would definitely have to come I'm afraid. Cab heat is definitely a must have. Hard top would also be preferred but not mandatory, same goes for a winch.

    So am I nucking futz or not?

    OK so our winter beater died a painful and unexpected death a few weeks ago, and the wife INSISTS on having a 4x4 vehicle of some sort on hand. The more I shop around looking at other trucks and jeeps the more appealing I'm finding these babies simply for there sheer "bang for your buck" factor...
