    Where in VA are you? In most cases if you get the part number from the TM and Google search it, you can find just about anything on these trucks. Also, I have had great luck with getting parts from NAPA for my M-1009. The search feature on Steel Soldiers may also be of help. It is encouraged...

    HMMWV Brush Truck Tragedy

    Just asking....How are VFD's funded? Is it through city/county or state/federal funding? Would better funding for equipment prevented this? Since my time in aviation, (23+ years) reading any kind of mishap report gets harder and harder.....Hind sight is 20/20..... I would like to think that...

    VA Rally

    T-shirts look great!! I'll have a look at our sked. Now that the truck is in better shape, I'd feel better about going. Anyone in the Va Beach / Hampton / Norfolk area interested in a convoy?

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately? - Part 1

    Removed fuel tank and found the packing under the sending unit lock ring had slid out of it's groove. Installed new packing, applied sealant to re-installed sending unit.
