When Turlock resident Russell Lanini goes out for a drive people stop and take notice. Of course, it would be hard to not notice the two-and-a-half ton truck bouncing down the road. Lanini is the proud owner and restorer of a 1969 M35A2 6x6 cargo truck nicknamed by the military as "Deuce and a Half" and affectionately dubbed Miss Repair by Lanini.
