Craig, If Bill "loved" the deuce and a half, he would have really loved the LAAT - I swear it moves forward only by pushing it with your accelerator foot...Both trucks are challenges to drive and both will need some TLC. The unfortunate part is that the cost of driving historic mil vehicles is rising because of the high cost of fuel and maintenance. I fear that soon, the running of larger historic mil vehicles will become the province of the rich or well-to-do...sort of like we see here in Canada with historic aircraft. I rue the day,
Anyway, thanks for the pics, and good on Bill for taking up my challenge...By the way, has his hearing improved?
