Do we want to have any demonstration type events this year?
We had mentioned this last year, but the closest we came was swapping Josh's front tires.

I have a rim/tire that needs the tube replaced. I can bring that for a quick run down on pulling a rim apart and swapping in a new tube.

Other ideas?

 

[Josh]

I have about 30 tires that need dismounted, we can do it as a group learning experiance .

Id still like to see the proper operation of a winch.

 

[Amer-team]

We could practice proper pre-painting metal prepartion as I have quite a bit of rust on the underside of the bed on the 5 T. On the winch issue, I hope to have my going by then. Did you know that a grade 5 bolt used in place of a shear pin is tougher than a PTO case.

Scott,
I am torn. It is a MV. Fire Truck show. What should I bring? The 5 ton or the Unimog Fire Truck. Don't say both, cause I don't know how the towing laws work in WA with regard to total weight. Are you going to wrangle Brad out there for the event? I needs to plan me a break. I have just put in a 48 hour - 4 day week. And one of them ws only a 10 hour day. And today- leaving at 3AM - now I am online at Steel Soldiers. Dang I have the green fever.....

 

[srodocker]

hehe bring whatever your not going to bring for the rally. brad will be there he will be there ina civi vehicle as none of his big rigs are insured he said.

 

[Varyag]

Would be nice if he showed up in that nice m54 he has.

 

[64c30]

Would be nice if he showed up in that nice m54 he has.

It's not an M54. It's an M52a2 with a deuce bed on it.

 

[srodocker]

hes coming with the firetruck unimog. trailering it over here.

 

[Josh]

Anyone down for a game of tugs of war?! Thats assuming Aaron would let us mess up a small portion of his yard

The 2010 Napavine Parade.(just to get the juices flowing)

Interesting MLVW-ish creation at the end of the tape. Correct wheels and flag, but Canada didn't have any soft tops or high (cab mounted) exhaust deuces. Perhaps it is easier to get M35's than MLVW's?

 

[Josh]

Thats an american M35A2. Rob used the canadian rims to single it out. He is canadian though, and a crazy one at that.

 

[odnorth]

Aaron tell Josh to quit picking on me.

 

[elkhunter]

Asst driver for Rob

Aaron tell Josh to quit picking on me.

Don't worry Rob I can handle all of them! Thanks again fo letting me ride shotgun in last years convoy. Actually I think we can square them away in July! Eh? elkhunter PS: I believe your truck is faster than any there. Do you have anyone riding with you this year? If not I would volunteer for the position!!!

 

[srodocker]

Yo canadian! i challenge you to another deuce race on the freeway!

 

[elkhunter]

This is the new "Green" lead vehicle for the campout and convoy in July. Bought it on April Fool's Day. Lots of bells and whistles .Hunter Green Pearl with a gray bottom and of course a "Hemi"! I think it will outrun the "Deuce".
