Hey all, new user here. I just wanted to introduce myself. I've decided to get myself a deuce and plan on doing a lot of question asking.

Thanks!

Hello Shack, I am a new guy too and would like to bid you welcome...

 

[shack]

Thanks porky, thats the exact type of greeting information I was looking for.

Welcome to SS Shack! You will find a lot of good information here. If you are interested in getting a Deuce, I recommend that you read as much as you can before jumping in.

If you can, jump in with somebody that has one and go for a ride. If you were closer, we could make a run out into the county and you could drive around for a while. Some guys hate driving them, I think it is a blast. Glen

 

[shack]

thats good advice. Theres actually a guy out here in Waxahatchie, a close suburb of DFW, who has quite a few for sale. I plan on talking to him quite a bit and making friends.

Vintage Military Trucks Home Page

Some guys hate driving them, I think it is a blast. Glen

Thats a generous offer. If I'm ever up that way, I might give you a call. Side Note: Why would someone have a truck that they hate to drive? Just to complete the collection?

thanks for the offer dsk... I got a fever for big iron though.

Also, make sure the garage door is tall enough. I have to remove the exhaust stack to get mine in.

The prices are a bit higher since less are sold and lots of northners like Texas trucks for some reason ,May be the lack of rust .

The West Texas Detachment of the SteelSoldiers welcomes the new guy "Shack' from Dallas aboard Find a bunk, stow your gear and prepare to get underway As previously suggested, SEARCH and READ all you can. If you have questions, SEARCH and READ then ASK. That's why you're being directed to find a bunk.... You'll have a place to kick back and READ

Also, you will quickly discover that SteelSoldiers love to "eat" pictures.... be sure to post some every now and then or they might get agitated and start saying....

Anywaze... Welcome aboard

BTW - There are three links in my signature below that you might find interesting READing.

Welcome from Missouri. Good work on doing research before buying a deuce. They take some work to maintain but they are lots of fun. I love mine!!!

 

[wallew]

Shack,
I'll add my welcome as well.

We are moving to the Dallas area. NOW. So I'll be lookin to hook up with some MV'ers from the greater DFW areas.

I'm also considering starting my own MV club. I'm gonna call it the MVCC - Military Vehicle Collectors Club.

I even have a logo.

ANYWAY, welcome and I can't wait to meet some of youse guys in Texas.
