    anyone know the # of people a deuce is licensed to carry

    thanks everyone - couple of good suggestions. Because I couldn't find this data anywhere official, you details of 12 in the back based on dimensions and the 14 from the TBs (12 in back 2 in front) seems to fit. I'll just have to go with this should I ever get in to trouble with the law. Martin

    commercial passenger seating regulations

    found the answer to my own question basically no problem with seating - all legal. Intrastate law requires you to have a CDL if carrying > 15 people on a commercial basis. Martin

    What temperature should I run at ?

    I bought a new (to me) Deuce but the temperature gauge didn't work. I recently replaced both temperature sensor and gauge and it seems to operate around 140 degrees which seems very low. The instructions suggest I should not drive until the needle moves from the starting position of 120...

    Has anyone got a recommendation around vehicle insurance for a deuce ? I may carry people short distances as part of a business venture so it will have to be commercial I guess. If it makes a difference, I'm in MO area. Thanks, Martin
