    Traffic Stop/I was speeding

    Remember that an officer coming up to your vehicle is really dangerous for them. At that short time they have no idea where things will go. Also I am sure they figure, he is in a HUMVEE he owns guns. For the most part they are doing their job at the start, where it goes from there is usually...

    How to pull-start a HMMWV...

    Pull start a V8 6.5L diesel. That is great that there are people that believe it. I think anyone that actually tries it should loose their HUMVEE license LOL

    Brakes REALLY touchy

    My 998 has really really touchy brakes, it only takes 1/2" tops for them to engage. So far I have yet to see a solution. My major issue is that the brake lights do not come on. The switch is adjusted back as far as it can be.. Anyone have this issue, a solution ? Thanks

    Finally got my Florida Tag and title

    He never stated that it was titled for "On Road" use. 3. Registration includes the restrictions about use and appearance. The registration which is standard includes along with car seat requirements and insurance also includes the restrictions. 4. Tag state "restricted use only". It...

    Security

    Another trick is when you park it leave it in reverse. The average person will not know they need to put it in N to start it.

    Why exactly does forgetting to disconnect batteries kill the KDS/Nartron?

    I was told a long time ago when working on airplanes that you never "hot swap" electronics.. Just a little surge when reconnecting and poof you have a paperweight.. I actually have changed a few and when I disconnect the batteries I actually then turn the switch to on to make sure anything...

    HUmvee seriial #
