Georgia NG Deuce's coming soon

[sandcobra164]

Well, our old Deuces must go pretty soon. This drill weekend, we PMCS'd all 14 or our M35's and 109's and ran them on a 20 mile loop through the country. All worked pretty good except for A4 (bumper number) which never left the yard as it had no brakes. Some were a little hesitant to start but all made white smoke prior to starting (they were getting fuel) and none required ether!!! They were last ran for Annual Training in 07' and we received LMTV's during that AT. We took the Deuces home and parked them in the back of the lot and they have sat since then. They all did good on the trip except for one that needs the base idle speed increased (runs good but stalls at idle). One did wet stack pretty bad at start up and blew black carbon water all over the canvas of a tan truck sitting next to it. Other than that, good to go, they are all sitting on 11R20 Michelins and should come out within a few months. They are physically located in Albany, GA and there are about 3 that I will try and outbid ya'll on. But fair is fair and if you are interested in one once they go for auction, I will tell you all you want to know. However, I may not talk much about the ones that have LDS's in them. I will only let on that 3 of them do!!!! I will let out that one of the 109's has a C turbo motor with about 16,000 miles. Good luck when they come out!!!!

That doesnt mean that they are coming up for auction. The DRMO lot near me is plum full of NG trucks from all over the nation with FMS freeze tags on them.

I had a conversation with a NG officer on the Kennesaw Base (think on 11-13-09 friday). He said that all the deuces where completely out of service in Georgia. Thats good news that there will be more coming out.

Side Note:
Had a conversation with a guy that works on the Dobbins Base in Marietta. He said there are 10 or so deuce there as well that will be replaced soon. His unit is no longer driving them instead they use tractor trailers to haul the sat. comm. stuff around.
