The safety issues you mentioned are real, but, for the most part, they were rectified with the A2. However, your point about not being able to put a MUTT on the road legally is not correct. I've had several, and all of them were legally tagged and insured.

You might also look at the MAN trucks since they have a cab-over design. You may be able to extrapolate from it.

I love the MERDC camo pattern and colors. I think your LMTV will look great! I'd love to see pics of your other trucks painted this way, particularly the M923. I've seen several with original MERDC camo, but they are not common.

Nice collection. Thanks for sharing.

I suggest putting down the rear stabilizer leg. It should be stowed up under the rear of the trailer (assuming it has not been removed)...it looks to be visible in the last picture.

Welcome, and good luck with your search!

Admittedly, I don't know how hot "hot" is, but tires get hot from the friction of driving, more so if they are underinflated as Coug pointed out. I used to have some 900s on a deuce that were labeled HEAT MASTER on the side walls (might have been Armstrong); I forget the brand. One thing to...

I've had about 7,500 pounds of hardwood stored in my trailer. I've never taken it on the road with that weight, but I move it on my property. The trailer does not look any worse for wear, but the landing leg left a mark on my driveway.

What title paperwork did you receive? I have seen that stated on these threads that the trucks would come with off-road-use-only titles, but I have been unable to confirm that. Until I can, I will not be bidding. I hope you can shed some light on the titling paperwork you received (or will...

PM CUCVFAN; he has a few left.

Does anyone know if they come out with an off-road-use-only stipulation? I have seen this claimed, but I can't find this stated on the GP website.

Do they come with clear on-road titles? A guy in another thread said that they do not (same goes with the MTVRs). I have not been able to verify his claim, but I also cannot refute it.

The MTVRs come out with off-road-use-only titles? Is that what you mean by "tactical (off-road use)?"

I had a tan M35A2 that was painted for that conflict, although I have no way of knowing if it actually made it over there or was just painted in preparation. It was a seriously rushed paint job, though, so it could have been used over there.

There were M44 series vehicles used in the first Gulf War. My computer crashed so I lost many of my saved pictures, but I had several pictures of deuces from that conflict. I even had one of an M44 fire truck pulling a heavy trailer. As I recall, that naturally aspirated truck was putting out...

I like your installation. Do you have to turn the pintle hitch horizontally to use the hitch, or is it not in the way? It is tough to see from the pic. Thanks!

Maybe that was my situation. I just recall that I had to carry two CUCV keys for the two different Blazers, but the keys looked alike.

You beat me to it! I was typing as you were replying!

There are probably various set ups since they made so many of these trucks, were used for years, and could have been re-keyed. But, in my experience with a dozen or so CUCVs, they usually have one key for both the door and ignition, and the key was rounded as you describe. I don't know if you...
