jeeper61 Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 Made it up to my place in Maine 400 mile trip one way Had to suck up the Diesel price I needed to bring up a mower deck and didn't have time to make a deck for the back of the gas truck The Duramax got 17 MPG I thought was pretty good lots of aero drag on this truck with the off-road bumper and Flat bed Here some photos Last time I was here 1st week of March we were ice fishing and had to winch past a couple deep spots in the snow Arm Pit Diesel was $6.40 gallon in Maine I found some for $5.99 I found this tow behind deck last fall for $400 got it running works well I had been cutting the hill with a push mower it was tough since I only make it up once a month and it would be too tall for the push mower I would have to hack it down with a walk behind line trimmer 1st took several hours now I am done in 30 minutes 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What lake is that in Maine I have a friend that just bought some land in Lincoln to be able to go up with his ATV’s and put a camper then eventually a cabin on 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
