    painted my m1008 today!

    Nice job. With all of those dents, are you sure that my soldiers did not drive that unit. Uh Nope, can't be so. It would have been sold as scrap if my kids had touched it! nice truck.

    2010 Olympics

    Well, this one was just a stupid mistake on my part. I was worried about overhead clearance from my flag poles, so I did not go downtown because we have overhead electrified wires for our trolley busses and I could not find the height of the wires. No problem, we just drove around on the North...

    Quiet Deuce Running 60 mph

    My M-135 gasser still is lounder than Metallica (30 watts) at 40 MPH! Cool ride, and nice choice of music!:beer:

    Dreaming about owning a Deuce

    Try to find a local owner with an A3 , and also an A2. Talk to both of them and form your own conclusions. Don't bother with your local Army unit, because unless you find the smart person, all that you will get will be beefs about the deficiencies of one particular unit. The guys who actually...

    Amateur Radio

    VE7HHK. I keep nothing in the truck that I don't wish to loose. I have a 30A 12V tap for the radio gear, and all antennas are mag mounts. I have retired from the Red Cross thing, so I only play when I am really needed!

    Another Family Member Likes the Deuce !!!

    My wife already knows beyond a shadow of a doubt that I'm crazy. I think that she has the bug too, now. She made a facebook profile for the "Green Army Truck!" Her arm is still sore from waving at the civvies! I will chuck in a shot of my daughter at the wheel of the M-135. She won't drive it...

    I love trucks

    Green trucks are like a big box of beer. Everyone tastes like another, and you just can't stop! Every flavour is good. Send more please!

    Had a interesting visitor

    I get this EVERY time the truck moves. Whether it's civvies saying "Cool Truck", or veterans who have a story to tell....The big green thing is an ambasador. I try not to abuse it, and just have fun with it. We do good with our chairity involvement, and do our best to let everyone else have fun...

    Let's really get the fur flieing, start a military small arms forum!

    All at I will say, is that you must remember that your weapon was built by the lowest bidder! As for arguing semantics about small arms virtues, there are many other sites that do that. Here we just talk about the vehicles that got us and the Log Support the where we had to go. Where is that...

    Found a 1953 M211 For sale. Great shape!

    Buy a bed and a rattle can..... they can be a really fun truck. Just be warned that they can be "Moody!" . That one looks like a good start, and FD's usually keep their stuf OK. I would guess that they had a Fire Truck bed on it, and they kept it for their new rig. I would not be afraid to jump...

    Help (SOS) for flyusn99

    To the rescue crew.... You guys are freaking incredible! Even us lurkers who are way to far away to help, are watching this with baited breath. Our little green community is absolutely astounding. I feel like I'm still wearing green, but, the only brass that I now have to answer sits beside me...

    2010 Olympics

    We had planned on having the 24V system ready for the Olympic torch Run. The plan was to be about 4 blocks ahead of the RCMP and the great flame. We were going to hijack the thread and get the crowd going. Unfortunately, the parts were ready 2 days late. So here are some pics of the festivities...

    My 211

    They can be a really fun truck. And at the worst possible time, they will bear a striking resemblance to your ex-wife!

    New M37 Owners!

    Cool. Good Luck with your new project. BTW, what are the electronics in the last pic?

    5 Ton Wrecker Vs. Flower Shop

    That is the wrong Camo pattern to hide in a floral shop. I'm glad that you, the civvies and the truck are OK. The flowers were already in the non-living mode.

    Ugh i rolled her!

    As has been said before. Get a truck with a dead engine..... Put your good bits on it. Driving a truck with a compromised frame should be left to civvies with a big insurance policy, and a desire to appear in the Darwin Awards.

    Towing M37 w/M35A2

    Yank the drive shafts! Failure to do so over ANY distance will be real expensive. The TM will cover all of the procedure! Good Luck.

    Got a little to excited

    Don't be afraid to make mistakes. Just be original. Try not to repeat the same ones. this is called learnig and is very good. If you are really creative with incidents, they are fun to recount over a cool pop? Nah, beer!
