:funny: I wonder what flavor Deuce cups they make for that?

We have a tie! What happens next?

Woof! That’s a good looking Cat!

@Dirt71 - I believe this is my new favorite thread! So, I’m curious, who are the other 10 ton owners? (I’m not really asking Dirt71 to drop names, but more so inviting others to post!)

PB - Do “email-in” ballots count as well?

Howdy! Welcome from just North of Houston. Great story.... but you have to post some pictures!! I gotta see your truck!

Congrats on the acquisition and successful recovery! That’s a great looking truck. I’m sure you’ll enjoy it!

Thank you, Sir. The tarp worked great. And call me crazy... but I like how it looks over the windshield.

I had to take my shoes off... but I agree.

@lighten, Sir, that is an awesome build! What was your motivation? Are you in the recovery business, do you own the farm equipment that keeps getting stuck, or did you build this simply because you could?

The o-rings that came with the NAPA filters did not work for me. I purchased separate o-rings from NAPA (part numbers 5070 and 5131) as indicated in the Deuce parts quick reference spreadsheet. If you haven't seen that spreadsheet, you can check it out here...
