jr,
How long did it take you to change the flat? You guys were all GONE when I got back for my 'second load' of vehicles.
See, I'm one of those guys who brought FOUR. "Because DEAR, it's my one chance during the year to show off MY TOYS to the club and the rest of the world". Believe me when I tell you, when I ever take more than ONE, the wife and I always have THAT conversation. I don't know why. SHE KNOWS I'M NOTHING BUT A BIG KID. I ADMIT IT TO THE WORLD. Why would anyone think my wife doesn't know this? She's the one who gives me the money FOR my MV's.
I now do CUCV's because me and the city of Denver got into it over my parking a deuce in my driveway. I won the court case. But in the process a buddy of mine bought the deuce. So I went with CUCV's the second go around. I don't need 'Soldier B' nearly as much. And the mid eighties design is the one I LIKE A LOT. I've own six Suburbans of that model era. Including one 6.2L Banks turbo diesel. It puked it's rear main seal. A LONG time ago.
I really don't like to repost pix, so here is the OTHER post 70deuce started that I added sixteen pix to. If you look at pix #5 you will see three of my CUCV's - the fourth one belongs to another club member. Plus what you can't see is the M101A2 trailer. Must be the camo netting...

And I'm kind of the low man on the multiple vehicle totem pole. As we have one member who owns seven deuces at the last count.
Here is one of the meals we ate. First two pix are of the ladies who cooked and served and these are BY NO MEANS all that cooked. This is only ONE MEAL. Saturday lunch we served chicken and beef fajitas, tacos, beans, rice, guacamole, etc...

Our food... mmm, mmmm, good!
OH, AND I FINALLY GOT TO USE MY FIFTY GALLON PORT-A-FILLER!!! It makes a great cooler. OK, it's NOT insulated. But it IS on wheels (I bent one of the wheels supports, so I'm going to buy some kind of 'off road' wheel with air in the tires). Being on wheels meant that the top of the cooler was even with the end of the MKT's walkway. We loaded that baby up with at least four to six cases of soda and three or four cases of water. THEN filled it up with six bags of ice. Every time they added ice, they drained the cooler by pulling the plug. We saved it in a twenty five gallon plastic container and had 'non-potable' water for all sorts of things. It was a win/win all the way around. Just gotta replace the wheels and we'll be good to go for the next event.
