    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Replaced my RR side marker light's lense. I had put all new lenses on this summer but got some overspray on this one and decided to not use any brain cells and use gasoline to take the overspray off. I knew better. So really this picture is a before stupid move and after replacement. I also...

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    New air filter. A GA rally deal. Grinded down then painted up some tow hooks and cleaned rust off and painted the pins for them too. Gotta buy some chain and retaining pins, paint them, install them, then pics will be posted.

    Eh, ugly just looks tough! MVs are the only vehicles that get away with it though. But, I know where you are coming from. I keep a rattle can of tan in my lock box so I can pretty her up right after working her.

    MV of the Month November 2015

    Ok. I will try my CUCV, M1008 and see if it gets more vote than my M929A2 got in September.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Fixed my front left blackout light. Not like I use them but I just hate stuff not working. This past summer I had to replace both rear ones because I have issues and couldn't have one with one of the four LEDs not working. I ordered one and then I had two different shades of red. Also, not good...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    That tailgate is busy! However, I like everything you have on it. Might take a couple redlights for anyone to take it all in but once they do they'll either love it or hate it. I bet you get some thumbs up. BTW, the hex nuts are funny.

    Cucvlover's m1008 the green machine.

    It must be the mysteriousness of it being a military vehicle that intimidates them. They subconciously think there's some special military secret in the drivetrain.

    Made it to Daytona today. Really liked taking back roads from D-town to here. Came to realize there is no shortage of pine trees! Nice event for sure. It's such a shame it's so far from home. I would love to take either of my trucks (especially the M929), but am not quite that brave to drive...

    Official '15 Ga. Rally Info thread

    Well, I am gonna be there Saturday only. I doubt a room within 50 miles is available so I will just rough it and bring my sleeping bag for Saturday night and sleep beside my car. Its a newer Camaro so not good to sleep in. Been in worse situations. I am headed to Daytona Beach to visit with my...

    Cucvlover's m1008 the green machine.

    Just read it. Did it come with that bed? I like the green lights on the radio and the ammo can speaker boxes. Nice.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Thats long enough considering there's a place to attach both front and rear. I was actually referring to quality. I got mine from hf and my truck came with a glad hand connector already connected. The inflater has a built in gauge but it is cheaply made and one can tell it wont last.

    M923A2 Doing 80 MPH!!

    When I took my cdl test, the tester told me I had to go the speed limit as there are more accidents from going too slow. I was a nervous wreck with so little experience, but that actually broke me of the intimidation. However, these MVs arent designed to do 70 mph. So I just stay off the...

    Nor are they as high quality!

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Nice! You did pick all that up cheap. Good to know. I do need to get more serious on that M925A2 purchase. Especially with this new info you have shared.
