PNW Info Thread!

IsaLandr, I see your point, and for the most part agree.
I saw the flow chart you were speaking of, as well as the exceptions.
There were enough grey areas between the "and's and or's" in the Wac's and Rcw's that I felt it required legal clarification.
I should have pointed out that my truck was plated as a collector vehicle in the first post.

IsaLanr and Elkhtr, thank yall both for the clarification on the collector requirements. I am looking at buying one and just driving it every once in a while. I have no need to haul anything in it.

Don't know the Pacific NW very well; what does BBQ mean to you all out your way:

- Brisket?
- Pork?
- Chicken?
- And the sauce: vinegar, tomato-base, mustard-base?

ALL of the above?!

 

[srodocker]

All of the above. Anything cooked on a grill

That's sure enough friendly:

- No local style-smackdown, or regional shootouts

Just fire up the grill and cook something! Sounds like fun.

Got Oyster? ~

Any day that weekend is good for me! My three day weekend! Any place is good for me also! Ball in your court Scott run with it!

Anyone out there on the dry side of the Cascades? I'm out here in eastern Oregon and was just wondering if there are any other members in the area.

Any Patriot Day events coming up in the PNW?

 

[Amer-team]

No Patriots Day events that I know of Coug. Just got done with a Military Tribute Parade in Tacoma. There was 1 - M 37, 1 - M923A2, and my 42 GPW, plus quite a few NG trucks and regular military vehicles as well. Of course I left the camera on the kitchen floor when I left this morning. Situation Normal.

Did a display today at the WA State History museum in Tacoma on WW1. They have a great display of original WW1 posters. If anyone gets the chance, this is a great opportunity to see some very seldom seen items from WW1.

Greetings Brethren. I'm brand new to SS, but not quite brand new to loving the milsurp quality. Have an M105A2 trailer and an M104 dolly set (I vaguely recall something about putting the cart before the horse... Don't do that? How does that go?) so of course I need a deuce.5 or 5 ton.
I spend about half of my time in SouthWest Washington and the other half in the mountains of Montana.
I am interested in meeting other milsurp enthusiasts so was glad to see this thread for our area. I admit that I have not yet read all 160 pages.
Seems there is advice here on SS about pulling an A2 with a civilian "horse." I pulled my A2 fine with a Suburban and 6" raised pintle hitch, but still plan on getting the 2.5.
Anyway, glad to find some other fans of the heavy duty stuff.
