jeremiah cole Posted March 13, 2017 Report Share Posted March 13, 2017 Hello to my old Escapees friends.

Av8r3400 Posted March 13, 2017 Report Share Posted March 13, 2017 Do you mean a three peddle auto-shift or a two peddle fully automated transmission?

jeremiah cole Posted March 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2017 AV - two pedal fully automatic, or change to manual shifting when you need it. HomeAutom8r - I'll try to post pix. In the meantime, email me and I'll send pix to you. 2002 39' Royals International 5er - the "Greyhound Express" 2004 Volvo 780 truck (color: Celtics green) - "Celtics Pride" The greyhounds: Martin and Missy Escapees #101622 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeremiah cole Posted March 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2017 AV, nope it's correct. I've already received two emails in reply to my post. Note that there is a dot between my first and last names, and another between "rcn" and "com". Also, following the advice on the Escapees' site, I used "at" in place of "@". To send an email to me, substitute "@" where "at" appears. Or call me. My number is included, but replace the words "six one seven" with the actual numbers. (Another Escapees' suggestion.) 2002 39' Royals International 5er - the "Greyhound Express" 2004 Volvo 780 truck (color: Celtics green) - "Celtics Pride" The greyhounds: Martin and Missy Escapees #101622 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stan Wright Posted March 15, 2017 Report Share Posted March 15, 2017 Man, I wish you had this for sale 6 months ago when I bought mine. I bought the same truck...green 2004 780 with a Cummins and Freedomline. Buying your's would have saved me some work. Did you add the compartment on the back of the cab?

jeremiah cole Posted March 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2017 The door in the rear of the cab is an access to the cab. Our greyhounds were too heavy for me to lift into the cab, so I had the rear platform and the door built. A year or so later, we decided to bring our station wagon along with us when we traveled. My wife drove it and I drove the truck. The dogs now travel in the wagon, usually asleep. We then used the inside rear of the cab as a storage area, with the door providing easy access for things like my wife's sound equipment.

HERO Maker Posted October 13, 2017 Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 Jeremiah! Good to see your truck again! Sounds like you're making a slight change in your RV plans. Plans change all the time and I hope this works out for you. Looks like a new paint job on the truck? This will make a nice truck for someone. Great low mileage.

Hot Rod Posted October 16, 2017 Report Share Posted October 16, 2017 It looks like I could get my Harley on that deck with the railing gone... do you know how far from the cab fairing to the railing, and how much clearance between the trailer and the railing when turned 90 degrees?
