...I have sat in that truck.

Interesting! Not sure it'd be a permanent fix, but has anyone considered just building their own strainer out of, say, something plastic-like instead of steel which just rots out?

Interesting thread, I can definitely relate to varying degrees of unsafe-ness in other fields besides MVs. Curious to see how this thread evolves.

It would be interesting to know brand names, maybe brands to avoid. Can you tell us the other circumstances surrounding the failures? I'm a lawnmower-spark-plug mechanic myself still and have a lot to learn but I'm sure others might be able to pinpoint nuances.

Interesting to know. Good luck, Ken, I hope you get things sorted out. IF I was in MT I'd let you cry on my shoulder but I'm in Alaska, LOL.

I love it, "Magic Smoke Box"

...And I've stumbled across another '69 M35A2. Gotta love Craigslist. LOL. 3000 OBO, I just might pull the trigger.

TobyS, you bring up an interesting point. Re: the bathroom situation, many homes/cabins here in Fairbanks, AK and the surrounding actually lack flush toilets or indoor plumbing. From other living situations I've had I see it as a non issue and when I tell people this describing Fairbanks to...

Thanks for the reply! I should add that it does come with other various goodies, such as an M105 trailer, 7 decent spare tires, sand anchor for the winch, new red top Optima batteries, it's a hard top, cargo cover/bows, etc. I know where a M923 is I could have for 6500 but by the time I drive...

I'm sure this has been brought up before but in a search I didn't really find any really good results that deal with my kind of situation here, and if nothing else me asking again might help somebody else further down this life; I tried to make the first part of the title searchable/have major...

Coffey1, is Ugly Ducking this one's name? Looks good, I hate the tan interior, much prefer green. Liking the camoed out doors too.

SnowTrac Nome, my way around that would be some buckets or custom made covers, but I can also see that putting them on and taking them off could get old quickly.

CsmDavis, there's an idea! Part of my thing is that I want a M927 or M928, and it want stock/unmodified, box built inside the existing bed. If I did that I'd get an M931 or M932 and tow, an M146 perhaps? That'd be my next option. Part of me wants to do it in the 927 or 928 so I don't need...

Looks mean!

For me, mine needs a desk, considering I'm still a college student. LOL. I like the M909 idea, I may consider setting up that way if I don't find an M927 or M928 to build a box in the bed of.

Fascinating! I, too, would like to do something like this, but I'm leaning toward building a box in the bed of an M927 or M928.

Yeah, I saw that, welcome to the madness! Living in it helps justify owning one of these fine trucks, and I just plain wanted a 927 or a 928, they're kinda rare too.

So...I had an even crazier idea. What if I lived in one of these long term, tiny home style? As long as I was single and didn't have kids I'd probably save a ton in terms of mortgage or rent payments over the course of a good chunk of my lifetime...which means...more money for M939s!

Hey Spectra3279, I'm also curious as someone who will be owning an M923 in CA as well.

Alright, might be a few months but will try to get a better photo; if I could score it for 500 bucks I just might. Like I said it'd be mainly to sell at cost to someone else.
