Salutations everyone!

I am new to the forum and wanted to say "hi"! I own several M series US military trucks and trailers. Have been a member of another forum for years and lookin for a different outlook. Feel free to drop a note or send a pm. I am NOT a professional, but have turned a wrench or two. lol

God bless,
Tony:smile:

Hi Tony. Welcome to FF. Interesting hobby you have there. You will need to post some pics of your collection once you get settled in.

Do you have any military firearms to go with those vehicles? Nothing looks better in one of those trucks than a nice Garand or carbine. :biggrin:

Welcome to the forum!

Having several, do you just hang onto them yourself or do you sell them?

So far, bczoom, I haven't sold any. Just bought 'em and kept 'em. LOL They grow on ya, sort of like mold, slow, steady, and often in the dark. Bein ex-military myself, they bring back fond memories of a by gone time. They do a good bit of work around here, but mostly they provide transportation and conversation. I have been blessed to pull honor guard for deceased veterans with them as static or moving displays. They help me stay out of "trouble" . Something to be said for big "iron".
I don't do it for profit or anything like that, they are just "mine" ya know? Gotta love the sound of a multi-fuel firing up. Mine is a "D" turbo, so don't have a "whistler" mounted up. I do have one on a spare engine, but haven't gotten around to changing it out, and actually, don't know if I would like the constant noise anyway. LOL THANKS everyone for makin me feel welcome. Still working on gettin some pics up! REALLY appreciate the thread with info muleman!

God bless,
Tony
