Here we go long distance deuce recovery

[usmc deuce cpl]

It looks like i might be leaving in the next couple days for my deuce recovery. I Asked wreckerman893 to pick it up from redstone. He made pickup today and reported back. It sounds like i got a good truck, once in a while I get lucky. HAHA I will be posting my return route looking for contacts incase of problems. I am hoping that the trip is uneventful. This will be an epic trip i think. I will keep you posted with pics and progress.
Alabama to Seattle, Wa. wish me luck.

Wow how much you pick it up for? that will be a looooonnnggg trip....

 

[usmc deuce cpl]

Picked up from gl and payed 880 after seller premium.
Ya especially with box seat. I will be purchasing spring seat.

 

[srodocker]

wow nice pickup! how long do you think its going to take you?

i live in Olympia and i've seen so many deuces on the east coast and not many over here

 

[jrou111]

Good luck man!

I know I'm a SS newbie, but is this the longest recovery?

 

[usmc deuce cpl]

It could be, I don't know. I am pretty new also. I have heard of some 1300 mi recoveries but not 2600 mi ones. I have had some help from wreckerman893 so i have a leg up on the condition of truck before i have to leave for trip.

 

[srodocker]

wow next time you go that far you should bring a buddy if you arnt already hahah maybe this summer i wanna go that far...

 

[Trailboss]

That's about a 5000 mi round trip

Wow, You'll spend more on fuel than you did on the truck. And here I was not wanting to drive a puny 2000 miles to get one of the 50 Camp Dodge, IA trucks.

Good luck!

 

[usmc deuce cpl]

I plan on driving my jeep to Alabama and driving deuce back. I will either tow jeep back or load in the back. I decided to do it this way so i can make an emergency run to get parts or whatever. I figure that it will take 3.5 to 4 days to drive out and 5 to 6 days to drive back, barring any unforeseen problems.

 

[SgtHatred]

Epic.

 

[srodocker]

wow thats a big round trip...good luck on that one and dont forget the extra batteries! and also if you load it in the back of the deuce and need emergency something...uhm how you going to get it out?

 

[maddawg308]

Man, you got guts. Three hours in a deuce and I'm like "get me outta this seat!". Good luck with your trip, take lots of pics.

 

[clinto]

Epic.

Hahaha, yupp.

I second! EPIC!



Good luck on your trip.

 

[Wild Horse Hans]

That is pretty cool! I wish you a safe and uneventful journey. And may all the adventures be ones you want.

Remember hearing protection, I said "REMEMBER HEARING PROTECTION" so everyone doesn't have to yell at ya. Good luck devil dog and if you get near eastern Nebraska needing help give a shout out.

 

[spentshell]

Man I wish you luck, that is going to be a great adventure. Make sure you bring a pillow or extra cushion for the seat or your going to need hemroid cream when you get home.
