That startup gave me so much nostalgia. I miss those trucks so much. I’d trade my M36A2 that I just rebuilt or one of those any day.

For the love of God, increase the idle RPM. It will build the air pressure in the system faster and get rid of that alarm

It has a high idle switch, you're supposed to let it warm up at 500-800 rpm when initially starting it for the day.

Turn on the high idle switch when your air pressure is low. It helps you build air pressure wayyyyy faster.

On the steel solders web site there is a long discussion about needing a CDL to drive this 7 ton. You can check that out. But in my state, Utah, the DMV says I do not need a CDL because it is registered as a personal vehicle.

What a beast of a truck! What's the engine and transmission, Cat C12 with Allison HD4070? Can you please do a long driving video out on the highway? I'd like to hear it shift into high gear. Please let me know ASAP.

I did not have any real issues registering. There is also a discussion about this on steel soldiers. My biggest issue is that Utah wants an emissions test every year. I tired to argue with them but it was not successful.

@@jakelogan7542 It is by county. There are 29 counties in Utah but only about 5 require gas personal vehicle emissions testing. It is the counties with the worse air pollution and the largest cities. As far as diesel, only 3 counties in the state require emission testing on diesel trucks: Salt Lake, Davis and Cache counties. Again, these are the counties with air pollution. I think that commercial vehicles need emissions testing every year in the 3 counties. Gas personal vehicles are every other year.

The mileage depends on a lot of factors but it is about 4 to 6 miles per gallon. So it does not qualify to drive in the carpool lane as a high MPG vehicle. Ha!

"BOUNCY", try a 900 series in Iraq with little, if any, paved roads! God, I love GovPlanet and civilians driving military vehicles! FYI, all military vehicles are primarily designed as "tactical" vehicles. Sorry our horns aren't loud! FYI, once you're steering wheel gets old and swells, you will hit the horn and it will stay stuck down. We don't use it.

it depends what state you are in and how its registered , it can be tagged as a recreational vehicle and you don't or once it gets old enough you can tag it as historic anything else like if you were using it for a business then you would

Unless your driving for commerce, you dont need a CDL. However, the majority of states issue regular licenses that only covers up to the 26k/10k line and to go above that you have to get a non commercial class A/B license.

The top speed is 65MPH but that is because it is limited. The limiter is in software and if you disable the speed limiter then the truck could do 75 or 80 but the life of the engine is reduced.
