I couldn't resist purchasing a 5 ton this past week (931a2). It will get here this coming week. Can't wait.

Just wanted to say hello and prepare you for the questions to come.

Welcome from Kentucky, 931s are handy, they're designed to pull. What'cha going to pull. Get an operators manual and read. It will save you a lot of typing.

The truck was purchased last week from GP, Ft Dix. I was bidding conservatively, then received a "Congratulations". Feeling lost, I though to my self, what am I going to do now. I ended up sorting out transportation with USHIP and don't feel like I was beat over the head. If I had time, I would enjoy the road trip.

Looking forward to the truck and chatting with some of you guys.

Here is the truck:

Thought it would be handy around the job site, pulling smaller equipment.

Nice truck, they are handy. Having it shipped is smart, learn the truck and the find another (cargo) for the collection. There will be a recovery in your future.

Welcome from Oklahoma. Good looking truck.

Have you downloaded the free technical manuals?

One of the first things to learn about your truck is to NOT turn the fuel selector knob on the side of the drivers seat. If you do you may create an air leak in the fuel system.

 

[Scottgeneral]

Downloaded and have been reading the manual. Thanks for the selector knob heads up.

I have the feaver, been looking for a trailer...

Hello PCOLA. Your my neighbor.

this metal is addictive. Just purchased a BOH FPU for my office connex, and a M871A2 flatbed to pull behind the tractor. Know the task of recovery or USHIP
