    Got it. This was not about going to the DMV. Just gathering more knowledge on the different versions of the Humvee Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Military HMMWV Vs Civilian Hummer H1

    I understand. But if you’re in an accident and the steering is coming at you in the Humvee, I think that at that point you would need more than a Band-Aid Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Military HMMWV Vs Civilian Hummer H1

    I guess that the only positive of the Humvee would be the lower center of gravity. A roll bar would be a great project and safety feature Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Military HMMWV Vs Civilian Hummer H1

    With all of the talks about HMMWV's on the site, I was wondering why is it that the HMMWV's can't be road worthy. I do not want this tread to be political about the HMMWV's, otherwise it will get locked, but more a discussion on the mechanical and safety side of why the vehicle is getting a bad...

    Got it, my bad. Not at this time, this was started Downriver, that is why Senator Hopgood is involved Maybe other members could contact their respective Senator's and proposed that they support the amendments, what do you think ?

    Strange wait light issue

    I replace my temp sending unit and had more problems than before, yellow light stayed , relays clicking, so I ended buying a matched set of the sending unit and controller, of course more $$$, since then no more starting or light issue. You also stated that you ran a ground, you are best to buy...

    Calling on all Michigan Historic Military Vehicle Owners

    This is what just came in. The Bill is not in the building stage yet, right now it is still in the drafting stage, so they are drafting it and will resend for review and after that it should go to the formal steps. This is going to be worse than watching paint dry...
