Today our MV club was asked to have a couple trucks to help the Marine Corps Reserve in Wilson , NC to help haul childrens bikes. BB&T Bank was on hand to donate 1200.00 to purchase bikes along with the local Pool And Billiard Store to match and donate 1,200.00 for bikes. It really helped a long...
Well to start we all left at 0700 this morning with my wife,kids, and my friend George to bring home the M915. Arrived at 0900 and met the nicest B*tch at the welcome center I have ever met. She was very rude and really seemed to be better than everyone. Complaint filed. Got down to the GL yard...
I picked up a M127A2C today from a guy in Greenville, NC. Nothing too eventful happened , nice slow trip there and back. The M818 did real well with tons of power. Couldn't ask for a better day. Taking off the side stakes took longer than the trip home.
I found the trailer on CL a long time...

My wife and I and our two youngest made the trip for Eastern NC to Maryland today to pick up the new M35A3 from Kevin/decodeme2. Went just fine, Kevin helped PMCS the truck for the trip home. No real news but the tach did go out about a hour down the road so I made it home without one. Anyone...
