Let me tell you what it definitely will do. It will delay your friend's retrieval of the truck thereby subjecting it to the potential for more pilfering. Been there...done that. I had a truck in AL that had over $1,000 worth of parts taken off it. I would never have submitted the claim if I...

Your friend will receive no proper compensation from GL. At best, they will agree that your friend's claim is valid, but they basically will only allow him to back out of the purchase. If he wants the truck, he is stuck with it (without the missing parts). Their grievance review system sucks...

My guess is he won't do it, but you don't know until you ask! :-D

Who are you kidding, Jason? Like there will be another owner...!:-D

Kenny --- Maybe, the guy will take payments...you never know what you can work out with him. The trucks are in FL, I believe, so that will save you on shipping!

A friend of mine in GA is brokering two M998s for a customer of his. The HMMWVs are clean, running units that came from the auction in the late 90s. The owner has clear titles for both trucks. He paid more at auction, but he needs to move them so he has decided to take a loss. He will sell...

Jason - great job on the wrecker. Keep us posted with more pics and updates as you make more progress. You are going to love that truck! Bruce

I wonder if GL will get back into negotiated sales. I know that they sold some trucks in negotiated sales meaning the trucks never actually hit our catalogs. I called them on this a few years back when there was about 20 mint deuces in Alaska. I could not see getting one or two...but, if I...

THIS IS NOT A POLITICAL STATEMENT....repeat...THIS IS NOT A POLITICAL STATEMENT. I read during the run up to the election that, if Obama was elected, he indicated that he would cut military spending. I can't remember the exact language and specifically what weapons systems he would cut, but...

I have used brake cleaner. Make sure it is the non-chlorinated type. Once the oil has been removed, I usually follow it up with a hose.

I recommend Goodyear GL177s. The G177s have very deep tread. Plus, since they are radials, they will wear better than tactical tires and also give you better traction on pavement (where we drive our trucks most). While they are not tactical tires, they are very aggressive and will perform...

M725: Go back and read my posts...no one attacked you...at least I know I did not. I tried to suggest a course of action. You seemed stressed by the situation. I wanted to make sure you would tread lightly in your dealings with the DMV. I have been hassled by them more than once and it...

Check with FMJ in NM...I bet he has one for you. He has some very nice trucks! Good luck!

Thanks, CARNAC!

Gimp, if anyone responds, I'll be sure to share the info with you!

A friend of mine just acquired an M62A2. He was hoping to find the manuals for this truck. Did they military produce manuals for the multifuel powered M62? Should he reference both the M543A2 manual, as well as the older gas powered M62 manual? Any help would be appreciated. I already scanned...

Sorry, Lane...I just saw your post. John Winslow --- 252-883-2509

Kenny, I posted some pics from the auction, but none since I got it home. I have not had time. With my son, my "truck" time is limited. I usually spend most of it servicing or otherwise working on the trucks. I hope to take some soon.

CARNAC: I recently bought an M35A3. Can you tell me anything about the truck? I am most interested in finding out the year of manufacture, but any additional information would be a bonus. I think the truck might be a 1996 or 1997, but I am unsure and I wanted to get it right on the SF97...

I am not sure what you mean by "the thin vinyl kind." They are the military covers...the same as those found on trailers that are coming out of service. They are mil-spec. I hope that helps.
