Can't believe they actually pay me to play with this rig.

Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
And I wonder why the neighbors look at me funny?!?

HEMTT rig
Any chance you could post a full side shot of that awesome piece of equipment?
That thing is to die for.

Will see if I can't take a few more shots of it for you guys. Bear with me though as it gets parked out at the ranch nowadays, after a few nastygrams and the torch-light and pitchfork parade by my local homeowner's association.
Jeez, some people just don't appreciate the finer things in life...

Yeah you bet they would be happy to see you.
Having a shop close to you (in Yuba City) I know that their minds would also change if the Sacramento or Feather River levees let go like in '99 that wiped out Olivehurst.

What kind of HEMTT is that? M977, 978, 984 or LHS?

It's a cargo (M-977), we've also got a 984 wrecker but the engineers are the ones who get first dibs on it. My personal one (another 977) is in pieces but should be complete and running by the end of the year. When I get to roar by my place in this guy, it sure makes the neighbors nervous. Heck, it's not like I've used anybody's Ford Expedition for a wheel chock this month.

Hey DR, Good to see you again.
Yeah, the avatar.
That was in my Ferrari Duece with some of Bjorn's super-juice Bio fuel in 'er. Can't make 200+, tach hits the "Danger" zone.
Photoshop could make it happen though.

thats the good thing about where i live, whenever they see a piece of equipment like that around or moving down the road its all thumbs up and if setting they want to see it up close, glad i live where i do.
I second the idea if they were up to their butts in water and sewage like the pple of Miss. LA. Ala. their tunes would change. But its stupidity like that which breeds ignorance.

My neighbor loves my deuce. He is a disabled WW2 vet. I get a lot of waves while driving. The other day 4 college girls flashed me as they passed me on the 4-lane!!
Now that's real support!!

Now wait just a minute here! All the thousands of miles I've logged in deuces and I've not been flashed yet. Not fair. BTW, as I see it if they flashed you I would consider that no visible means of support. Sorry ladies if any are looking on!
