When you figure what all of us must pay for insurance collectively on our collections vehicles in a year, I figure the OP's probably due whatever repairs his truck needs to make it right. Personally, in most states there is a minimum required insurance coverage, so if young...

Thanks ALFA 2! The luck is I might have a chance to come out your way, or I may end up in Utah , or Illinois, which will be another query. Both trucks are everyday runners here in Texas, and the state treats ex-military vehicles better then some other states do. Being a Park...

Not saying it's gonna happen, but there is a very small chance that I may soon pick up a job in Needles, CA in the near future. Knowing all the inanities that California imposes on the deuce owners there.... I am giving some thought to residing, should I get the job...

You might want to check the National Park Guide, look under parks A to Z, check Cape Hatteras National Seashore or Cape Lookout National Seashore, as there are times of the year that they close the Beaches to vehicles, and the above sites will have...

I've had that happen with the bolt that attached the shifter lever to a very heavy duty 1989 Ford F250 transmission after a quarter million miles and who knows how many shifts..... Wow, you guys are really hard on your trucks (or some practical joker got you many years after...

JBINGVTX:
You would really have not liked crossing East River Mountain and Big Walker Mountain before the tunnels with the deuce. East River took out about 12 miles of 25 MPH uphill and about 10MPH downhill, twisty, hairpin curves road, and Big Walker about the same... The...

jdr2710:
Ditto for the deuce and Unimog (at least the S404.114 series), they will go fairly well, especially the singled deuces, as they have too much tire on the road in the tandem duals to do much without weight and without chains, and the NDCC's don't...

Thanks for the very neat Navy vehicle marking shots, not something you see much here in northeast Texas....:drool:

Congrats on making it in one piece with the truck.... The post shows "East River" Tunnel, is that on I-77-W.Va. turnpike, is is that one of the ones in Virginia.....???? It's been so long they had only finished the tunnel just above Wytheville...

Congratulations, USAFSS-ColdWarrior!!!!nopics
Usually they get sent back to the Texas Forest Service in such poor condition that there's little to pick over or bid on, so you got the luck of the Irish....... There was an M35A2 sent back from Texas...

Cranetruck & Co.:
" Saddam's Nightmare" in the icon annexed is a June, 1971 Kaiser Jeep Wo/W and it has the headlights mounted up high, the blackout light hole in the usual spot on the left, and no horn hole on the right. So, it seems my truck is different...

Look out DC Brown, BullDockMAck13's going be waving some bling in your face over that one, as he just got rid of his M37 on EBAY somewhat similarly equipped. You owe your wife big time for saving your gun & your truck (not to mention the expensive damages to your...

I note that you haven't posted what part of PA you are from. If you did we could offer some more sane advice on the potential snow conditions you are expecting to see. If you are a person with some disposable income, you can save all the questions and...

I wonder how the town car will do when he refits it with air over hydraulic brakes?:?:
It better be one of the little trailers for the CUCV series (M101?) because the hitch is gonna look really odd up about luicense plate or truck lock height.......
Good luck...

Deuce and a half dragon:
I can't speak for Delaware, but Nationwide Mutual has a County Colonial Division that insures my deuce and a half and my Unimog with no mileage, garage or use restrictions. They charge me less for these two vehicles then they do my wife's 2006 Jeep...

Jay:
Does the A3 use a mechanically driven tach off the camshaft? If so, all you may need is the cable, not the tach itself, as they rarely act up (at least on A2's they rarely do). Remember to lube the tach cable before you install it.... You're getting...

Welcome 4X4 Junkie!
Might I also suggest that you add the M1009 to your investigation lists, as it is geared a little higher then the M1008, which was set up for 45 MPH convoy speeds, and thus they tend to be slower on road trips and a little heavier user of...
