Who didn't start off knowing very little about these trucks? Very few of us were raised with them and were turning wrenches on them before we could walk (aside from folks like Joe that is..).
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
You kind of make the old timers sound like a bunch of grumpy old farts, Sitting out on their rocking chairs, While madly shaking their fists in the air at all those darn young people playing on their yard...[/COLOR]
This is how a lot of the old time members feel, people buying a big MV, with NO idea of the care and feeding of what they have, it seems that it is getting WORSE, it is more like "I have a bigger pu then you", and get OFFENDED if told to read the TM, what should be done to PREVENT the same thing from happening again or what could have happened because of the issue. So Jeep, you are not the first or will you be the last to tell the truth there by offending a poster, all well.
Sorry, I couldn't resist.You kind of make the old timers sound like a bunch of grumpy old farts, Sitting out on their rocking chairs, While madly shaking their fists in the air at all those darn young people playing on their yard...
Actually I worked in the motor pool when I was in the Marines. After I transferred out of tanks. So I was pretty sure of what I was getting into. Though there are things I have to do now that the Depot level guys would have done. Bad transmission ? Send it to Depot. Engine refuses to run right ? Send it to Depot. Now, I'm the Depot !I suppose I'm the oddball around here. I read and read and READ about Deuces here on the site (and lurked quite a bit) before ever jumping in to ownership. Had I not done that, I would never have been able to start the truck we ended up buying the first time we saw her behind the firehouse she was being retired from. With that knowledge alone, I became both dangerous and OVERLY CAUTIOUS at the same time. I know that with a RUNNING truck under my butt that there was some real adventure ahead - with life and death situations on the road before me. I have always defaulted to SAFE OPS, and knowledge was the first step I had to take.
Carry on.... in the safest way possible, please.
He probably got his e-mail notification of the first post and got scared off.Sorry, I couldn't resist.
