Andy from Indiana is his 1965 M-715
Taken at The Badlands ORV Park, Attica, Indiana
Yes, we got it out without any damage. in the photo I shut it off as engine oil was coming out of the valve cover, you can see it floating on the water. (BUMMER) we hooked up a buddys bronco to my 40' strap and his 20' to try and get him on drier ground, dumped in 3 qts of extra oil, threw it in reverse, hi range, dropped the clutch, yanked, and (according to witnesses) the entire truck jumped back out of the hole about 3 ft off the ground! WHEE!! The right front tire NEVER touched anything in that deep rut....

Yea they take down an older house and put up 2 in its place. You can have a buffet dinner with the neighbor and never leave the house.

Man I hated how crowded it was.

Could you imagine back in the day when there was a ton of space down there? That would have been so nice.
