    Will 5 Tons be less expensive next year?

    If I find one a long way from here would it be OK to ask members in that area to look at it? People here has experience and own trucks so I would trust that more than taking a sellers word. I would feel better buying one from a member.

    Will 5 Tons be less expensive next year?

    I've found some nice trucks but it seems they are all top far away from me. Many I've checked on are three states away or more from me. I'm going to look at a M931A2 located 2 hours from me this weekend. It has 46231.0 miles and 2385 hours on it. Runs and drive good from the owner. I really want...

    Will 5 Tons be less expensive next year?

    I'm looking for a 5 ton here in the south east. I've heard that many people feel that in 2014 there will be a lot more for sale and the prices will be lower. Any thoughts?

    Bell 47 Helicopter - Australia

    That would be the CH47 Chinook. Every flight requires both fuel tanks be full and the crew chief standing by with a 55 Gallon drum of Hydraulic fluid for in flight issues like controls.....

    Why do some people hate military vehicles?

    FlyingVan911 I was at the state auction lot last year and they had two OH-58's (Army Jet Rangers) for $500 each. But, they would only sell to a Municipality or a police dept. They were in good condition from the Alabama NG. Weird how they give away equipment but charge civilians a ton of money...

    Humvees in boneyard--------

    The Govt. could get back a lot of money by selling off this equipment to civilians like they do trucks. I see them selling fired brass in 5.56 and 7.62 bringing $2500 to $4000 per lot which is higher than scrap brass prices. you would not believe the Helicopters they cut up for scrap instead of...

    Why do some people hate military vehicles?

    Don't get mad, get even. I have a Bell 206BIII Jet Ranger and live in a nice neighborhood in a private community. My house is at the edge of the subdivision and it ends with my back yard. I got crap from the HOA because I landed in the street Safely) in front of my house for about 3 minutes to...

    If you had to choose....

    I'd be happy to find either one in my area. I'm in hopes that next year more will become available but only one M929A2 running is at GL in Atlanta and that's about it for now. Even the M35's in good shape are gone around here. There were two around me and they were gone before I could got off...

    Look at the post by randygk The duce beside the 5 ton looks like a pickup truck. I did not realize that there was that much difference between the two. I'm just in hopes that the price on 5 tons come down a little and the Govt. sells off a lot more.

    If you had to choose....

    I've decided on the M923 5 ton. I missed a chance at a nice Duce this week, snoozed and lost. I looked at Memphis Equipment but 12,500 for 5 ton.or a nice Duce is a much as I could get a really nice 5 ton. I'm in hopes that next year the military will sell off a lot of 923's. Seems that all the...

    I think I'll stay within 4 hours or less driving time. I've done this with a few cars years ago. Described as like new, low mileage and clean. Drive 8 hours and it turns out to be totally unlike described. Junker. I made 5 trips that turned out to be a waste of time. I'll bide my time and wait...
