Agreed.
But.... almost every state that I know of has a requirement that you register your vehicles in the state in which you reside. In other words, VT will be happy to title and register it, but OH state police will consider the registration invalid since he's an OH resident.
Note that your air dryer, air governor, horn, wipers, and air shift Tcase are all behind the PPV.
I realize I may be pointing out the obvious. It may not be obvious to everyone.
The heated seats at least have entertainment value. You can turn hers on in the dead of summer when the girlfriend isn't looking and see how long it takes her to notice....
A buddy has a set of real JW Speaker lights on one of his trucks, and Chinese knockoffs on some of his other trucks.
He says the main difference is that the range and reach of the high beams is substantially more on the real ones.
I'm interested in seeing your lexan covers. Be sure to post...
Not necessarily.
Sure, it makes for a much better interstate cruising vehicle.. but if your primary usage is back roads with a speed limit of 55 then that extra gear isn't so important.
6.2 vs 6.5 isn't much of a difference either, other than the additional reliability of the GEP variant of...
My best guess says someone added that bed onto a truck tractor. The wheelbase looks short, the paint doesn't appear to be an exact match, and I have never seen that type of wrecker bed used in military service.

2) condition of the axles and springs and related mounting points
3) maximum speed
4) other traffic present
5) tow...
These aren't the old split rim "widowmakers".
Still, any tire stores considerable energy in the compressed air.
Most of the risk is when initially seating the bead. After that, the risk is pretty minimal.
A locking chuck that you can walk away from is a good investment. I have one. You want...
I'm sort of in the same position you are. I have an LWS ringmount for my M925 and nothing to put in it.
I'm somewhat picky and want something period correct. This excludes the 1919s. And the M60 is just such a turd.
I hesitated to spend $8k two years ago on a semi M249. A place in Phoenix...
The most probable failure modality is a leak on the hydraulic side. Additional air won't resolve that.
This has been beaten to death multiple times. Everyone who gets a deuce decides to resolve the brake problem.
Unfortunately, there is no really slick way to do it. Options are -
1) dual...
The semi auto's that'd be appropriate are the M240B, an M2HB or an M249. They're all frequently available, just expensive. The M249 would be the cheapest to acquire and the cheapest to feed. Acquisition cost >$12k in today's market, and $0.70-$0.90 per round to feed.
The M2HB would be the...
