FYI. I will not be hosting the Chehalis Rally in July this year. It has been a number of good years spent hosting this event. Aaron Wildenberg put in a ton of work to get it started and keep it going. Biggest kudos to you man! Thanks for all those that have shown up over the last 14 years. If...

Went from island life to country life.

I know Peter will be doing the first part at his museum on Saturday the 2nd. Then the Parade and cruise on the 4th. I think he only posted on the facebook group though.

Coug, I have a post here in the Upcoming Events section. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/2022-pacific-northwest-rally-fe.209019/

Hey Terry! Wish I would have had the tires for you on this one. I will keep my eyes and ears open for them!

$187.50 fee. That is quite a few years of regular registration. I see the scale weight on the trailer must be under 2000 lbs, but I didn't see anything about gross weight on the trailer.

Oh boy, I really like that trailer registration part!

When did the vehicles change to 9 digit vins? BTW Peter, the courthouse DOL has the final say over the State Patrol. That is how we registered the Alley Cat (MuttVee)

Herlong?

The trailer setup (everything besides the shelter itself) is called 'Dolly Set, Lift, Transportable Shelter, 3-ton M720.' The front axle set is listed as M721, and the rear is M722. Here is a link to the TM. http://www.liberatedmanuals.com/TM-9-2330-285-14-and-P.pdf I still have three of these...

Ah, I watched that one. I could use it to move excavators. But I didn't have a secondary use to justify getting it. Of course, I don't HAVE the excavator yet, but I was planning ahead ;)

Which lowboy did you get?

Well, that and most of the A2's have the 8.3L turbo diesel instead of the old 250.

I was getting a trailer off post. And was cruising south and saw you. I was already REALLY certain it was you. This just confirmed it!

So that WAS you I saw driving on I5! Nice looking truck.

I asked that exact question when I was registering the 818, but ended up paying the tonnage. She said the difference was that you were paying for what it weighed, not what it could haul. That was the answer I got when I did it. Same thing when I did the deuce.

The DOL office in Chehalis is a GREAT place for doing MV stuff. They are very nice and very helpful.

You have to pay tonnage on what the truck itself weighs. Not it's gross weight (it's weight and what it can haul.) It is a one time fee though. Nothing after that for collectors plates. I paid a couple hundred for my 818. Just remember, it's only the weight of the truck itself, curb weight.

Everyone that I know of, myself included, gets it for free.

Thanks Josh. I wasn't SURE I was going to be bringing it back this time. I have a spare top, but it is VERY dry, and I think that length of a trip would have torn it up. Btw, at 60 mph, a deuce is NOT fuel efficient! On a good note, I have the fuel dialed in! It took a 7% grade for over a mile...
