    LMTV California Registration

    I suppose you are right...... these California regulations are terrible. I can't actually think of a reason to drive it other than to have the cab painted. I guess I can get the RV box done and registration prior to cab paint.

    LMTV California Registration

    Let me know what happens at the DMV. I plan to be on the same path soon, I just planned to drive it when I needed to without reg. I guess it is a risk, but any driving will happen when it is still camo, I have yet to see a camo military vehicle on the side of the road with a tax collector behind...

    How reliable can I expect a "new" 2012 MTV to be? What locking diff options exist?

    Do you plan to do a blog, or have a forum thread somewhere we can follow your progress? I am very curious about your build, especially with a 23' box! Is your vehicle M1083 spec? Does it have a 161" wheelbase? If so, do you plan to extend the frame as Twoifoverland did? I heard that the twoif...
