    The correct response to "Why do you need a military trailer?!!!"

    The correct response to the following statement "You're always buying military stuff, you have plenty, why do you need a military trailer?!!!" (PPE is recommended) is: "So when a kick you out, I can get rid of all your stuff in one run!" Any questions? Bueller?.........

    Temps will drop drastically tomorrow here-What type of engine heater do you use ?

    Wow! Amazing stuff. I want the bulldozer. Big ole beast. Ok, lets practice this on one of our trucks. Who wants to go first? :whistle:

    How do you do the starter log technique without burning down the whole vehicle? Maybe I am missing something.

    Temps will drop drastically tomorrow here-What type of engine heater do you use ?

    Yes, I decided to not drive it much until I have the weak areas addressed. Believe me, I want to, but I am restraining myself : ) Wes and others have much more on the road experience with these vehicles with temp extremes than do I. I just rebuilt my battery box with some big improvements to...

    Did you install it yourself? What brand did you use?

    I assume this is air current reduction?

    Temps will drop drastically tomorrow here-What type of engine heater do you use ?

    I think I recall someone was working on a DIY manifold that circulates the coolant with an inexpensive diesel RV heater, like an expensive Webasto or Espar.

    Dropping temperatures make me think about extreme cold starts at some point with my truck. TN is no North Pole, but if I start to travel, I'm I curious what people use to keep there CATs warm in severe cold. I know that block heaters have been known to cause a fire or two. I have seen dipstick...

    Anyone have a recommendation for towing a m1082 with an F150?

    Thanks everyone for your input. I was not really sure it was even feasible, especially with interstate travel.

    Ready to test the new configuration

    Actually members of a particular political party make great dead weight. Heck, you don't even have to strap them down. They automatically attach like leaches. :)

    Ready to test the new configuration

    Be careful with moved center of gravity and weight carried higher.

    Anyone have a recommendation for towing a m1082 with an F150?

    I recently had a tote filled with about #2000 of fluid slide to the back of my 5 x 10 trailer. It shifted from the middle of the trailer to the back and the trailer started fishtailing all over. It went from stable to dangerous in 1 second. It was a white knuckle day, for me and the people...

    Anyone have a recommendation for towing a m1082 with an F150?

    Sounds like if I get it, best have it shipped from NC or TX. My m1088 needs more work before road trusty.

    Anyone have a recommendation for towing a m1082 with an F150?

    Not sure if it is possible, but anyone have a hitch recommendation (brand) for picking up a M1082 with an f150?

    Fuel filter heater questions

    Just replaced the Rapco filter. I noticed the heater in fuel filter base. Is this triggered by a temp sensor in the unit itself, or an external trigger?
