grunty

that sounds cool. Don't know what truck yet. been looking at the SUMB as it is affordable to buy in petrol form but a Jimmy sounds much better when you talk multifuel Was up at Kemble Saturday and had a chat to a couple of people which was good.

any news on this? i am in Dursley and once I get a truck then storage with work facility would be good

hadn't found that one The one i found is still petrol v8..

101 would be nice but 4k plus is a tad out of my league

hi still looking for a truck.. A SUMB has come up on the bay of fleas, are they good? 1500 sounds cheap, is there a reason they are cheap? It has a bit of rust in the cab which I can sort other than that it looks ok and he says it is fine. Don't want to drive 200 miles to look at a rubbish truck especially as have little experience of said trucks.. It is legal so can be driven home subject to finding enough fuel stations thank you Al

hehe, not wasted time nor confussed, but I am learning a bit There are many vehicles I would love to own and run but many are out of my reach I really like the idea of REO multifuel, especially with the free fuel post just put up!! I just need to keep looking

Ahhh, that explains a fair bit thank you I like the multi fuel idea is 6k the normal price?

OK, getting confused http://www.milweb.net/classifieds/large_image.php?ad=47429&cat=4 Reo is not GMC, which is deuce and a half? is it just Reo that is multifuel? HAR-4, too rare ? spares etc.

I would love a REO but unfortunately I would be living in it if I paid that much and the mrs found out!!! may be not so bad??:cool2:

I like the REOs too, didn't think they would be cheap to run though?

Dont know if these have been spotted before At a yard in Dursley At a "storage facility" in Dursley

That RL on the bay, green godess support vehicle, is lovely 2700 i could cope with, 4 1/2 k is a bit much for me. A bit less sparkle I think Found a power wagon on there too

hehe, no problem spending it, its explaining to the mrs were it went :argh::shake: What do I want? something affordable to buy and to run would be good :??? I like the look of the old stuff, commers, bedfords etc,REO look fantastic but a bit much for me really. Matadors are cool wc 52 powerwagons :-D Allready have a Landy I would like tax exempt and also like the sound of mot exempt as it saves the once yearly hassle which means the occasional use doesnt cost a lot and it doesn't eat and drink while parked up for weeks on end. Use? Shows :-D weekend romps :coffee: driving round town looking cool :cool2: giving me an excuse to get out of the house :-D I think you know the thing Money issues... i haven't got a lot but... could find some :idea: I have little idea of what they go for or what aftercosts are involved. fuel economy is desirable and I have read about multi fuel engines which i fancy as veg oil etc is allready being played with? Facilities? I have storage in a field and i can get up to my workshop though not in it, so at least spanners and welders etc can be utilised if needed. still possible? cheers Alan

Right then I have said hi and now the questions start I am looking for a truck!:coffee: Don't know what as i don't know what is available What do i want? Facility for sleep etc in the rear, have seen radio wagons or wooden boxes and also sheds built inside a canvass back, all fine 4x4, I guess that 6x6 would too expensive to run Commers, Bedfords, Austins all look great, I have seen plenty of French and other European stuff but not as pretty If it has a winch or any toys on board then thats even better :yay: Soooo opinions, suggestions, warnings :-D thanks peeps Alan

thanks for the welcome time to visit the general board
