I went through all off the above when I went to retreve my 5 ton. I had a list of every major trucking company and towing concern from NJ to SC. I also had appox. 90 days from the end of bidding to EUC clearing to plan. With EUC's getting down to the 20-30 day period, you need to get on the...

We all have to be a little off our rockers to play with MV's. And then there's ferro and I- we like MV's and trains! So we are beyond help.

Haspin> Gimpy rolling his deuce= priceless. Ga Rally> Riding with Gimpy in the back of same deuce, down a narrow winding trail= scary Can't wait to make it to Haspin...................

Man! That would be awesome to pull the lanyard on that puppy at the Ga Rally. You think Union Point would get upset if we dropped a round downtown?

Kenny, could you have gotten the syncros for reverse hung up? Sometimes , if you do it right, it feels like you are hitting a brick wall.

If you would keep the 818 out of the trees, you wouldn't have to worry about ripping the top! :mrgreen:ß

Ferro has that effect on people- he gets them very very muddy..........

Since I have started driving the 814 around town, all the LEO's I have seen have either waved, or given me the thumbs up, even when I was in my UPS browns. I may never get stopped in this town.

I normally just keep myself in the cab. Everything else goes in the tool boxes. :mrgreen:

As long as you understand that you have a power band the size of a hair, and that you will never go fast(>50mph) An 813 will take you to the moon and back at 5 MPG.

Mine thinks she wants an M37. I won't let her drive the 814- I am afraid I will lose the M814 to her. :driver:

Finally! Something with a larger turning radius then my 814. I don'r know what a Goer is used for, but it looks like a beast......... :mrgreen:

So when are we gonna get all the mobile kitchens together, and have a field kitchen cookoff? I have tasted mikes cooking(I think) and it is pretty tasty........:mrgreen:

WD40 the tracks before breaking it loose. Your biggest problem will be traction between the tires of the wrecker and the ground. Go slow, and if she digs in, stop, and find more traction. I don't know what kind of surfaces you will be on. If we knew that, I am sure somebody can recommend an...

When I drive the 814, I have to remember that I have a whale tail behind the rear axle.

Only because I let you..............The hills slowed you down more then they did me. :mrgreen:

The MV's did back up traffic when we were on the 2 lane roads. It is amazing the looks we got as we drove around the subdivison.

Here is a 16 minute video of my M814 on a road trip, plus some action of Ferro's M818 and M172 trl. The 1st 10 minutes or so is just the M814 running down I20. The rest is acting with Ferro's M818. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mNJOD3Pn6pU ENJOY :driver:

Well, maybe semi serious. I would like to wait and see what the road to deadhorse is like when I go up there in August. Plus it would take 5 weeks just to get the 814 there and back at 50 MPH, plus the 2000 odd gallons of fuel it would take.

It has been a little while since I have updated this thread. The 814 is now roadworthy. The oil leak has stopped, the cooling system has all new rubber hoses, and the system itself is been flushed, and new antifreeze added. The latest thing was getting the 814 tags. I had been putting it off...
