Dang, I really wish I had a spare $21k so I could give your truck a good home, but I'm digging myself into debt with a home construction project. Well, actually, the digging hasn't quite started... #^%&$! county and their *^%!^$# paperwork and ^&#$%&! bureaucracy...

Thanks for the support guys. I hope it will go to a SS member too. Less than a handful of SS members know this, but the Mrs. and I are expecting SS Jr. Sept. 1st. There is much to be done before the little guy gets here. Hopefully I'll be able to hold a little cash back to get something else in a little while. I'll need something to bring the wife and baby home from the hospital Maybe something small like a HET.

Chris,
Perhaps you could rent the truck out to SS members for say, $500 per month. And after 42 months you would still have your truck..........
We promise to take care of it.................
No off-roading! Never................
I'm sure it will be returned in the same condition as when it left!



I'm in! ( I'll take the first month! )

You can't do it, its against the rules. You can only sell your MV or weapon to buy a bigger badder one.

I'm certainly no expert on women, but I suspect that many of them would react negatively to the suggestion that you'll need a HET, PLS, Dragon Wagon, etc. to haul their butt back home.

Wow! Congrats on the baby! Full circle coming on Chris? With Jr you might need another ten-0-nine.

Congrats Chris!!!Just try to remember if you sell one ya gotta get another...play the safety card. I told my gf the 5 ton was ultra safe...no airbags to hit the baby..the advantage of weight against most vehicles. Side note.... My gf said our yard was looking crowded so I parked the 813 in the woods then told her I got rid of it. She said "Just because you park the ugly truck in the woods and its camo doesnt mean I cant see it" The moral is always always cover your tracks and use camo netting......damn she is wiley.

Thanks Kenny! A CUCV may not be out of the question or maybe a Doka Mog

Fancy, great story! Don't worry, SS will ride again. It'll just be a little older and less expensive ride, which has its perks too, like cheaper insurance, antique plates, cheaper parts, easier to find parts, etc...

I'm addicted and want a M900 series for the same reason I bought the Deuce, having said that I can appreciate the difference in the insurance and parts availability issues. Hope you get what you need for it and find something else soon.

The cool thing about Chris' truck is...he has already done all of the work. All that truck needs is a little cosmetics. She sure is a sweet runner! I'll spread the word, too, Chris.

 

[Jetnoise400]

Congrats Chris! While it's a worthy reason to sell your MV... it's still a shame that you have to.

I'll trade ya for my 1009!

 

[steelsoldiers]

Thanks guys. I appreciate your support.

 

[steelsoldiers]

Price reduced: $19,999 OBO. Thanks.

 

[cranetruck]

Chris, have you considered ebay, it may not be a bad way to go, didn't Tom Bauer sell his Millenium Reo that way?

 

[CCATLETT1984]

at least if it doesnt sell, you get your listing fee back.

 

[jkelly66]

Congrats on the little SS comming. I am late to the news you are looking to part with your 5 ton sorry you need to do that but the reasons are good. Wish you were into old farm Iron and were up for a trade but cash is best in this case ...........fine time for me not to have to much laying around.
Good luck hope you can score that HET soon John

 

[steelsoldiers]

Bjorn and Chris, I may do the Best Offer listing or regular auction on E-bay. I put it on Craig's list tonight. That's how I sold my 404 Unimog.

Thanks for the congrats, John!
