Sounds like a good truck. I would take a good look at the brakes. Any leaks around the wheel cylinders, rubber hoses, master cylinder or air pack? Does it build and hold air pressure? The heater, IMO, isn't a big deal. My truck has one, and it does work, but the amount of heat is negligible...
Welcome, from north Alabama! You came to the right place for information on MVs. As Mullaney said, the turbo wasn't added to gain power. It is more to clean up the smoke. My 72 Deuce has a "C" turbo. I like the sound, but I have heard that some folks get tired of it.
I second the request for...
The gas pump is a popular spot for sure. It's still fairly new to me so I don't mind the questions at all. I especially love when military veterans come up and share a story or two. As for the Priuses, I just pick them out of my treads when they build up 🤣
Welcome to the forum. And congrats on your truck. I know very little about CUCVS, but from what I've read they are great fun. I just might own one myself one day (my Deuce looks kinda lonely out there) so I look forward to learning from your experience. Glad you're here.
Sounds like you have a good plan. I drove my Deuce home with zero issues, but it was a much shorter trip. Only about 250 miles. Wes (@simp5782) travels the interstates a lot, and probably has good advice about weigh stations, etc. Good luck to you!

Welcome to the group, from Alabama! Thank you for your service. There are lots of folks on here who are very familiar with bidding on auctions. Feel free to ask any questions you might have.
I'm glad to hear that they had good news for you! For those of us who don't know, which two vehicles are you insuring? Is there a weight/size limit on the roadside assistance? Hagerty has been fair with me so far, but I only carry liability insurance on my Deuce. Might have to check into...
