Worked the M37 today

Post by Wayne64 »

I finally got a chance today to put the truck to work. I put maybe a 100 miles on it, 20 miles of it was hauling 2 pallets of clay targets. Two trips as each weighed 2100 pounds. The only glich was when I forgot to take the emergency brake off and the with the trucks balls didn't realize till the cab filled with smoke. :oops: The funny part was I thought my Son was going to bail out.

I guess you were in no hurry. I cannot imagine how slow it was with that load.

An outstanding way to put an M37 to work! I'm sure it gave you a lot of pleasure and really impressed the troops at the range.

(You may want to shorten the ends of your tie-down rope on your cab canvas, though. Those ends flapping in the breeze will mess up that pretty paint job in a big hurry!)
