I've got some questions to an electrical guru. My M1028 will not start as the engine turns over very slowly. Known. 1. Both batteries are good to the best of my knowledge. Both show an open circuit voltage while connected to the truck of 12.7 volts. I hooked my "smart" charger to them and...

My boy's love candy!!! You'll be on watch!!!

I've towed a school bus out of the turn around at the end of my dirt road. How much do they weigh? Only pulled it maybe 200 feet. I normally use the Deuce for such functions but the wife went overkill and used the 923 to do the same thing so I was trying to prove that the M1028 could also do...

I almost quit putting my prized CUCV up for Vote because I thought it would get killed with the competition that was up for voting last month. Somehow, it won. I'll admit that I gave it some good props and I still have to get 33 framed pictures of it sent out. If you look through, it got...

Mike, Thank You kindly. I try to be a Great Daddy but I Married well and have a Great Wife and she has way more patience than me alot of times. Autism isn't the end of the world, it just requires alot of patience. If you met me 5 years ago, you would have thought that I had none. I picked...

I'm not sure about the 97 model but I know the 12 model runs a computer for most everything but the door locks similar to everything else. They run a ¨Can Bus¨ system with computers to control most everything. In fact, I've probably got a computer issue on my wrecker. I had to hook to a HMMWV...

CUCV in the Winner's Circle Broke new ground today!!! A CUCV has finally Won MV of the Month. Very Interesting read if you're never read this thread from the start. My youngest Briggs is the real winner in all of this, both with us being able to keep the truck and with the truck winning the...

Mr. Kent, My Son is why Sarge Won it this Month. Mr. Larry pointed out that Sarge Won over some Very Worthy competition and he's absolutely right. What helped push me into the Winner's Circle were three things that I can think of. Its a pretty nice truck with a unique history. I've got a...

I'd like to nominate my CAMO SE Detachment friend Atomic. Some know him as Russ.

Sarge Won!!! Thanks to All who Voted!!! Moderators, please put the attached picture in place of the one I submitted for the poll for the picture that will show up on the left side of the page. Briggs was really excited when I told him that ¨Sarge¨ had a good shot of being the Military Vehicle...

Sarge May Win!!! In the first picture posted, We worked on that posterboard for a few hours this afternoon. It's looking good and unless the Texas Mafia jumps in during the last 3 hours and causes an upset, We're going to Victory Lane!!! Please see the attached pictures!!! Briggs is already...

First thing that we check on these trucks is the battery's. They are so sensitive and heavily electronic. If you jump one off that has bad battery's, it will do all kinds of crazy stuff. First thing it will do is the ¨No Charge¨ light which means it has disconnected the alternator from...

Wikipedia has an article on it that I looked at briefly.

Just researched that briefly. That appears to be taking place in Texas and onto the South West States starting July 18th. We won't be anywhere near that area. It's just regular ole Summer Camp for my group this year.

I sure hope it works out. Briggs will learn of the results Monday Morning but I'm leaving to do my job in the National Guard for Annual Training. I may have to set up an account on here for his Momma but she won't vote. We do intend to make good on our promises though if he wins.

Another Ahab, I am not into marketing, I'm a Safety Specialist for Uncle Sam as a Civilian. I'm Campaigning Hard this Month as it looks like I have a shot of sending out a lot of pictures of Briggs Celebrating in front of Sarge. The Truck may Win the Poll but Briggs is the one who will be the...

My Little Buddy got introduced to the Green Iron Disease from the start. This is from 2010 in front of my National Guard M984 Wrecker on Veterans Day. I'm behind Briggs and he's wearing the small PT Shirt. Joey is wearing his ACU's!!! A Vote for Sarge is a Vote for Freedom!!!

The Goat is catching up!!! Come on CAMO, GA Mafia, or anybody who thinks CUCV's are cool trucks. Sarge has a shot at it and you'll never find a more unique history on a truck. What I really take pride in though is Briggs Love of this piece of Green Iron History!!!

Here's the Best Memorial Day Photo I can think of involving my Buddy and his Patriotism!!! He is helping replace some American Flags at some Memorial Trees at Ft. Stewart. Here he is working on SSG Booker's Memorial Tree who unfortunately departed during the first ¨Thunder Run¨ on the way to...

I need to add that anyone who votes for me will get a framed photo of Sarge and Briggs showing his excitement if he wins!!! You're not just voting for a truck, you're voting for the joy that this Un-Molested Un-Restored still in Pristine Condition CUCV has brought an Autistic Kid. Instead of...
