If someone can get it to Tucson I can get it to Carnac (free).
If no one can get it to tucson, I can go fetch it for actual fuel costs (not really much of a deal as it'd probably be about $220 in fuel), and then get it to carnac's.
I have a tentative trip to Baton Rouge mid to late may. If...
Matt, I'm glad you mentioned that.
The way I address this issue is to not completely change lanes. I will not change lanes much earlier than needed either and I only change about 2/3 into the 2nd lane out. This discourages any attempts to pass me on the right. I do this whether in a MV or my...
I'm pleased to report that the local law says you must slow down or move over for ANY vehicle on the side of the road with hazards or other lights flashing.
It seems that the state here values the life of the ordinary citizen as much as the LEO or first responder, requiring precautions be...
Leaving Friday morning 24 April, returning tentatively 27 April.
Empty M925 with either a CUCV or a 1ton Dodge on towbars behind it.
CUCV or 1ton Ram for the drive back.
Thanks!
Let me wander off topic a bit to economic theory... There's essentially 2 models.
First we'll look at a command economy. In a command economy the price of an item is fixed at the cost of the materials used to produce the item plus reasonable compensation for the labor involved in making that...
I'll have a 1ton Ram and an empty M105. I'll be coming back to Tucson. Looking for some help with fuel costs.
I'll go out of route for reasonable fees.
Thanks
That's looks to be the best of the cucvs I've seen. I just can't imagine going over about $7500 for even a perfect cucv.
Those of us that like the cucv will also like the other military vehicles. At $17k, you can cherry pick your choice of the 5ton trucks to include wreckers and dumptrucks...
M1009 CUCV to LA, then M35A2 back to Tucson. Empty both ways.
I can take an M1101 both ways if it facilitates something. I can also take towbars if that makes something happen.
Looking for some offset to fuel costs....
I get 5 - 6 mpg out of my M925 with the NH250.
I've gotten an honest 11mpg out of an M923A2 with the 8.3 cruising interstate, and 9 mpg generally around town out of that same truck. That truck was the best in terms of mpg.
One M931A2 with the 8.3 got 6-8mpg, and also made noticeably more...
2 regular batteries will work just fine.
Put new fully charged batteries in, don't try to slave and go on dead batteries as trying to get the alternator to charge 4 utterly dead batteries will likely kill it.
The truck looks pretty good. He has repainted it himself.
The price at the opening bid isn't out of line for a known good truck.
His emphasis that the mileage is 21,000 certified miles is full of crap. He has no idea what the real mileage is as the military changes odometers like most people...
NOS CUMMINS 8.3 block in crate/pallet from Tucson to NC. I can drop it at the freight terminal here in Tucson or we can get it off my M925 onto your vehicle somehow (last one I sold we got about 5 of us and yanked it by hand)
Destination is commercial address with a forklift.
Pallet 4x4x3...
