Very good point!!!!
Now I have an argument towards the guys that says Japanese or German is better built...and US is ****...
I have an American built truck that can go under water...and take the abuse of war...can your civic do that? ;)
All those links did...was add to the confusion and uncertainty lol
but...according to this from Doyle...I unfortunately have a Kaiser Jeep
Since my SN starts with 04
Mainly...I'd like to say in confidence that I own an AM General M35A2 (when in reality...Im an ignorant ******* because its truly a Kaiser...or AMC)....or Vise Versa lol
Would be like someone calling their Dodge Stealth a Mitsubishi 3000GT
Not trying to make it seem like a bigger deal then it really is...Im just curious...thats all...I like learning stuff like this..
mcmullag, your right about that plant being passed down....some companies were even pressured into continuing military production at that plant.
If ford owned that...
I find it quite interesting as there was so much change within the companies in such a short period of time. Also, I would expect body parts to differ slightly according to whos manufacturing the truck at that time. I find it hard to believe that two completely different companies (or 12) can...
lol at all the previous comments...and I have to agree with most
The reason I thought about this was because when I say Kaiser Jeep....whoever Im talking to thinks its a JEEP....so I have to explain to them...which is a PITA
Then...I was thinking...maybe its AM General...such as the HMMWV...
From Wiki..
"AM General's roots (and its location in South Bend) also lie with the "General Products Division" of Studebaker, which, along with its substantial defense contracts, was acquired by Kaiser Industries in early 1964 after Studebaker closed its U.S. auto manufacturing operations. At...
It was really kool meeting you! your work is excellent! (guys, I saw his work first hand...its awesome!) And I really appreciate you taking the time to meet me out there and getting the trucks ready..It sure was an interesting drive home lol....but fun! I have already been recommending you to...
Thanks! I think it looks a lot better on those tires also...and I'm sure it will be better when I take it off road..but it drives like **** now lol...much harder to steer...all over the place...cant believe it was such a difference

Oh Yes...Exactly, Make SURE they know what it is that they are insuring...and be specific, especially when telling them that its a 2.5 ton 6x6...so that there is no confusion!! Obviously $30 per month insurance is CHEAP...no need to try and cheat the system! :)
Im actually going to Lucerne Valley Saturday afternoon to pick it up..(Pop and I are driving F150 there)...then I will pick up my truck...then follow him to Calabasas...help him unload his Buell and get settled...Then drive back to Sac on Sunday
I know I paid A LOT more purchasing mine from Hundy...but I am so glad I dont have to wait...Im DEFINITELY an instant gratification kinda guy...
But Pat...once you DO get yours...just think of all the money you saved...hold in there man...It'll be like Christmas when you get it!!!
