The handle is a dead giveaway as they are unique from other American iron. It’s interesting because Wagner retooled to do those 1891 series about 30 years ago however, they aren’t even the same casting as the Wagner, Griswold, or Wagner-Griswold skillets of their lineage. The only thing that they are similar to are the Asian copies made after them. One wonders if perhaps there was copyright issues they had to work around so that’s why they made something completely unique.
 
He had it on 8X8's, no wheels. He heard him drive in, saw it was his son, so didn't look. His son had a side gig buying old Toyota's and selling them to a guy that ships them to South America. He thought he was messing with a truck. When he finally looked, they had it almost on the truck with a cable jack. It was just his son and his new girl friend.
Drugs are bad, and I think the newer ones are stronger. Makes good people not good people in a hurry.

I swear I can’t go to the Dollar General here without seeing a few tweakers. You’ve never seen these people in your life but they’re out in the woods or in crackhouses in town doing this ****.

I very much disagree with law-enforcement’s plan to “watch the dealers so they can get the upline”. If you strung up every drug dealer you came across, you’d run out a drug dealers in a hurry, and some of them would rat out their connections.
 
This huge push on legalization will be our ruin! The new weed is much stronger and has lots of negative effects. It increases schizophrenia by 6X, and almost all the young mass shooters were using it. (a fact they tend to keep quiet). You don't need to increase the age (to buy a firearm), just do some drug testing!

The current administration wants to ban natural gas cooking stoves because they say they are harmful, yet they have no guidelines on parents smoking weed in the house even if they have young kids! So, second hand weed smoke is OK, but natural gas fumes are bad, bad, bad! You just can't make this stuff up.

You don't know all the complaints I hear of people who have to use mass transit in NYC complaining about smelling second hand weed, and "no concerns there"!
 
My BIL drove one until there was literally nothing left of the frame to support the chunks of 2x4 he was using for body mounts. He's a die hard Chevy man but he'd buy another Trooper tomorrow if you could find one here.
I ran mine till it hardly got out of its own way and was a huge rot hog.
Those have something that frequently goes wrong… I’m thinking maybe the intake boot? Do a little search on here to see. It’s been years since I’ve looked at one of those, so I can’t remember exactly what it was.
I read something about the intake boot tearing quite frequently.
I seem to remember seeing something about their intake boots, but the recoil was the main problem on the one I had ... Plus my 044 just out ran it so bad I never fired it up again! I moved the 330 and the Super 2 along after getting the 044.
It was free, or I wouldn't have grabbed it. I'm most likely not going to keep it after I get it running.
Wouldn't wish an auto trooper on anyone. Was the reason I got mine for dirt cheap. Spent a few days at the junk yard gathering parts to convert it to manual maw5. Till she literally fell apart it was the best suv I ever owned.
for me, primarily one place. sometimes up at the ranch we gather. currently prob have 5 or 6 new wood piles from tree clean up and some fence line trimming...

but for me, mostly one place. just down the street or around the corner. never have to drive or truck on to get it... it comes to me. so much, i oft pass these days! in my neighborhood it rains oak! one way or another! been like that past many years.

constant! :chainsaw:
:chop:
I wish it rained oak around here. Too many people burn wood.
 
Thinking about Isuzu vehicles, I had the trooper then got a rodeo. Never cared for the rodeo just was that little.bit smaller that it sucked. Interior sucked, constantly had issues with the 4x4 automatic front axle. Ended up converting it to lock out hubs. Was a fuel pog vs the trooper too, but I always chalked that to it being auto.

My bil's wasn't a Trooper, it was a 2wd Rodeo. It was a 5speed and if memory serves me right a 4cyl.
