    top speed and mpg for M818?

    At 2k rpms my 818 moves at 52 mph. Last road trip hauling a loaded M146 trailer was 5.4 mpg. Bobtailing or towing, seems to make no difference to the fuel usage .

    Cucv/ GL questions

    Bought my first M1008 in '92 from the drmo at McGuire AFB. It was a return from the 1st Gulf war. Paid less than $400 for it with 19k miles on the clock. And even back then they came with fork damage to the driveshaft and door. :roll:
