How accurate is that tho with the serial numbers? Aren’t some in the 3’s still ECV? I was hoping to confirm by seeing some of the upgrades in the photos.
What’s the best way to identify a REV truck in pictures? The serial number isn’t 100% right?
it seems. That The transfer case is noticeably different, and the wire for the parking brake is eliminated - are those the REV.
^^^^I must be wrongor I’m looking at the wrong stuff
What is the easiest...
Curious what people pay for shipping? I’m about 450 miles from the Albany Georgia location. I’d get it myself but I’d need to rent a trailer and can’t find a company locally.
Is it worth it to buy a seconds parts truck? Seems like enough of the non runners sell for under 5k and could save you that much on new parts.
but I guess what I’m wondering is… are the parts even worth it? In my experience junk yard parts or used often fail so fast buying new is worth the cost.

Half price of some other companies selling aftermarket doors.
I can’t imagine thy melted Home Depot pvc would be better……
I was watching that 46k truck and was quickly outbid. I was expecting it to sell more like these two from the week prior, with some extra budgeted for the doors.
why the big discrepancy? What am I missing??
Rather than make a new thread- does anyone know what carrier these are? The pics through the fence are humvees sitting at my local sheriffs lot, the other on the red hummer I found on Facebook. Look somewhat home made but similar swivel to the rhino carrier.
So silly question but, looking at the pics it would seem that if the angle of the radiator and oil cooler were increased, and slide to the rear a tad, it looks like they could have avoided the whole extended nose?? Am I off base here or does that seem right!?
Yes I understand the obvious differences in the trucks. I’m cool with an A2 or 1165. But people have scared me with the REV trucks being expensive for parts.
basically I need to find a good one and be prepared for repairs.

I’ll try to respond to all of you: I guess honestly I don’t really know what to look for. I’m only considering runners with out missing gauges and stuff like that. Hopefully no blow by or leaks. Ones that look decent or rust free. I’ve been looking at the radiators to see if any fins are...
Just as the title say, what should I expect from a running and “complete” auction truck? I never considered the auctions because the prices have been so high these past few years but, they have really come down now.
How many minor problems to repair, missing things, etc. what’s the...
what exactly makes a REV more expensive to own? I assume you mean the maintenance? How do the REV trucks differ from the ECV trucks?
am I correct the ECVs trucks are the 285000 bins vrs 30000 and up?
I assume with those payload ratings the springs are stiff as ?!$&
I am trying to educate...
I don’t know much about all the different models and all that. I never looked at the ECVs trucks because they always cost so much more and I thought the extended nose looked ridiculous
There’s one 1165a1 up next week that is a 31600 vin but I’m not sure the pluses and minuses to them v the...
Ok, I have checked the auctions sparingly over the years and I thought I was dreaming. Why are trucks like that going so “cheap” now when a few months ago it seemed like 40-50k.
a non running 1151 didn’t even sell at 2500.
I’ve been watching and wanting to buy something but I didn’t count on...
