I in no way, shape or form claim any rights to the photos which are obviously screen shots/frame grabs from Google Streetview.

I looked on Google Streetview, never updated since 2011 in that area, and lo and behold, it was there, in the driveway of the house directly behind where we lived. It's since been moved to an adjacent piece of property he doesn't own so it's moved at least once since then.

While back in Sitka, AK visiting an old neighbor (street I spent part of my childhood on) I was anecdotally relating how I'd considered daily driving a 50 year old Deuce and a Half on alternative fuels. "I know where a Deuce and a Half dump truck is" he says. Drives me over to look at it, and...

Yep, liberal amounts of Dawn.

Dawn dish soap works too...

OK, can someone tell me more about the M917 dump? Slippery slope as MC's are, I've decided one of these days I just gotta have one. Personal experience? Specs? Their typical quirks?

Looks great. Always loved the M939 series nose.

Anytime. There's a lot of good people in the MV hobbyist community, I met a couple good friends thanks to Wtwel Soldiets. One ended up being my first college roommate, I kid you not. I know it sounds cliche but if you just need someone to talk to, PM me.

My condolences. These trucks are like people- you should find some solace there. You're in my thoughts and prayers.

Mos68x, looks good! Always loved the 5 ton beds, they just look tough!

Could that lead foam stuff be used?

Truck looks great! I'd also like to get myself a M929A2 someday.

Good to know. If I'm rich enough that isn't too horrible for once a year getting to go play. Otherwise, fear not, the truck would be meticulously maintained.

She's beautiful! I like the solid green. Curious to hear how hear able the radio is when driving though.

Yeah, curious, what other maintenance will be required? If you don't mind, keep me posted on the costs (feel free to PM me if you'd rather not mention it out in the open)

I think I'd go right before fluid change time anyway, so there's no excuse for being lazy and not changing fluids. Same with tire changes and hybrids.

Just gotta be able to pull em out, and do the maintenance afterward.

Or several, since you have an XLWB. Definitely gonna have to go car crushing with mine. I also want to go have fun in the muck.

Or within the borders! Can't wait to crush a few hybrids with my 5 ton. I'd also like to go off road and play in the mud, but I'd get another one to wheel, not live in. Suggestions for my first time taking it off-road, what to watch for? (Feel free to PM me if you prefer)
