    Parades as usual with short notice!

    As promised, here's a pic on the M-135 at the toy collection point. Next year they want to do a "Fill the Deuce" event. We're in! The second pic is of a 4 legged security system, watching his ride being finished, just before the toy run. A Bronco with a Chevvy drive train!

    Drove a Deuce Satruday, GL needs to hurry up

    I've been hooked since the day I drove my first MLVW. Now I'm training new drivers for the M-135, for parade and display use. Yep, my DND-404's are somewhat expired. To drive one is to love one! Even my wife has stopped being jealous...Finally!

    Looking at a Deuce next week

    What are the problems with buying an M35 in the states, and bringing it up to Canada? We're considering a 2nd deuce.

    In my near future

    We still run the Allisons in our fleet, and aside from the occasional blown torque converter, our goofs aren't able to kill them. Good luck, and please post your progress pics!

    NYC Veterans Day Parade 2009 Photos

    Totally awesome. I'm so glad that the hobby lets our troops know that we remember. It really does mean a lot to them. The vets appreciate it even more.... All flavours, shapes and colors... Thank you Vets! Because of you I have the freedom to complain. I try to use my judgement to not do that...

    Weight station Question

    The very quick answer is, to avoid problems, go through the scales. There is a lane for under loaded trucks, but you would be best to take the lane over the scales. The inspector will probably only stop you to bs about your sweet new cargo. You'll be under weight, so you'll have no problems. All...

    New Welcome to the club. Be forewarned that this is a very addictive hobby. It isn't quite as expensive as boating..... I did say not quite did I not? It's all good! Stan.

    Remembrance Day.... Canada

    Today was the first official parade for the M135 under new and loving ownership. I'll post the photos tomorrow, but the crowds loved it, and we did Fam tours for those who have never had the chance (or bad luck) to go for a trip in a 2 1/2. The smile could not be wiped off with a fire axe! God...
