    Buying MEP-803A - Good Deal?

    $4k is the lower end of reasonable value on it.

    Possibly acquiring a M931A1. Feedback..?

    Lol.. It doesn't really matter where it is does it? It's your friend's truck for sure. There can't be more than one of those in existence. I'll even bet the frame stretch was done by Durkin.

    Possibly acquiring a M931A1. Feedback..?

    Those aren't HEMTT rims. 14.00s are getting scarce. I'd choose 16.00s or 395's, and those look like 395s. Changing brake diaphragms is pretty trivial. The boots are no big deal. That's an M105 bed. I like truck tractors with a 12' bed and truck tractor length frame. They look...

    I prefer the NH250 to the 8.3. I've owned bunches of both, and currently own both....

    HMMWV Trailer fiberglass cover wanted

    I bought one of the amtech tops out of Nellis AFB for $35 early in 2014. New in crate. M1101 trailers used to be $400ish at auction and i had difficulty getting $750 at retail for them. Now they often go >$2k at auction. I've driven $1400 auction trucks 1500 miles home. Times have changed.

    Fuel consumption and top speed

    NH250 typically gets 5.5mpg. Loaded or empty, doesn't matter. 809series or 939series. NH250 + turbo gets about 7.5mpg.

    Blackest matte black

    Be a bit more subtle and call it the "collapsar" or "hypermass" or "singularity"

    Gov Planet used parts

    The bad ones frequently go into the crate that the good ones came out of. Just like with engine shipping containers. "Bad" may be relative. The military may swap out a dented one for one without dents. Or it could be full of nasties. Or have holes. Caveat Emptor....

    Fuel consumption and top speed

    24% is what I come up with as well.

    Wanted. Tire iron handle

    Lock ring rims aren't the same as the old widowmaker split rims.

    Fuel consumption and top speed

    I find it implausible that you are burning that much fuel. I suspect a leak.

    Have your CAT had its Asphaltene today???

    Apparently it happens in oil wells also. The flowing liquid suddenly turns into a solid black crayon.
