    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    We convoyed down to Danielson CT for a touch a truck fundraiser. Nice little town, we met a few of the local fire crews. It was a great time for all and Im very thankful we were able to be a part. It was just us in the MV category. Even the CT guard was in a pickup truck.

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    I took the "kids" (Sasha and Max) for a ride around town, pretty noisy back there on this ride. Must have had a lot to say. They sit on the bed and look out the windows. Not the A3 ride in the wind, but they enjoyed it. Funny watching them run around the truck looking for a way in.

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Yes they are 14.5 X 20's on the M35A3, the 14.0x20's will not fit with out a modification to the axels. I think the 395's are the same deal, spread the axels. My M35A3 had the 14.5X20 Super Singles on it, not easily found and very pricey. I picked up a full set of 7 for $900, they were in great...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    With much anxiety and heart ache. I sold my truck in preparation for the next one. I had spent the past couple months doing little things and then decided to take it down to metal in the problem areas and give her a new outfit. As much as I loved this truck it was acceptable to grant ownership...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    I very happily hung both my plates, I wish more had been accomplished but it was a lot to do week just getting the DMV business squared away. One thing I noticed, no plate light. Anyone know if they make a clear utility light lense? I figured I could replace the middle red with white and call it...

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    Got the windshield glass replaced and put the window assembly back in the truck. Cheap fix $50 at local glass shop. While the glass was out, I grinded down a few rust spots and refinished the windhshield frame. Not to bad for a newbie. And to think I had all that anxiety over the broken glass...
