    Considering an M923A2! What do you think?

    Not trying to be a buzz kill, just bringing up things you may not be aware of. If you do not have a CDL, you will need to look into that. Unless it has changed in the last few years you need a CDL to drive even an M35. And depending on what kind of neighborhood/city you live in there will...

    Steel Soldiers MV of the month 2016 - July VOTE HERE!

    Jump on the "Band Wagon" After a marathon trip from TX thru MI into IL in 2014, my 7 year daughter and I took the M915A1 and M872A1 to pick up my newly acquired M813A1 in IL. A day in and we started running into lots of snow and ice. So an easy 4-5 day trip to get a possibly running truck...

    M915a1 vs. M352a2 for Hauling logs

    Is this for on road or off road use? And the M35A2s are able to haul up to 5 tons on hardball. Can they do more, probably. But I think 12 tons is well over what can be safely hauled with these 30+ year old trucks. A 5 ton (M813, M923) can haul up to 10 tons on hardball but I wouldn't even do...

    Here are some of the M715 style clones and a few upgrades on an M35 or M813 clone (can't remember which it was).

    13th Annual Korean Ground Forces Festival

    A few more. I think that some of these frames are ex-US and were reworked by the Koreans, but was not able to verify. From what I heard all the powerplants are Korean (no C turbos here) and they still used a standard transmission. On a few of the M35 clones they has the exhaust go through a few...
