. That's neat! I have been here in the big city since I was born. Excepting some time spent working for "Uncle Sam", this is where I've been. Grandpa and Grandma lived out on Hickory Grove Road if that tells you any history about our Mullaney Clan.

. I completely understand that! Worst part for me is trying to give driving directions. Third street with the big oak tree on the corner, down one street, turn at the ugly pink house, up the hill and turn left. Then they ask "What is the street name and number so I can plug it into my...

. Welcome to the Outfit! Sounds like you may have already found a New-To-You truck too! The painting part is nowhere near as bad as it looks when you start sizing up that job. After all, it isn't a show truck and with a lot of "elbow grease" you can make it look pretty darn good. Even with...

. Interior looks like 1960's decor to me. Maybe not, but it definitely doesn't look like what I would have expected. AND at just $1.75 million, that simple life could be yours. Seems a bit high, but then again too - it is all what people will pay I guess. Just in case anybody else wants to...

. Why Not!? Too cold? Say it ain't so!!

. There are people who have titles from companies that allow you to title in a state that doesn't restrict HMMWV's. There are individuals who have gotten titles without the help of a company. Just plain, normal people who asked the right questions, filled out the right forms, mailed off some...

. Some folks call that 4 sided ring a "Quad Ring". Might be useful to use that term when dealing with o-ring suppliers. A hydraulic shop may have those harder durometer rings and they definitely understand quad rings.

. Yes and No. Many owners of these trucks have stepped back to two batteries and been very happy. If you lived in Alaska, the extra cranking amps might be useful. Otherwise, two will be a good way to operate the vehicle. By default the truck has 4 batteries. A group of 2 for 12v and a group...

. Yeah! That one has what appears to be an uplink dish on it. Lots less than the FBI Mobile Command Center that was sold for twice the money. Snagged a picture of the link above for posterity. $48k for a 2007 T300 Model I would say you could be camping tomorrow if it starts and runs! .

. Congratulations on the new tools! I know it gets cold in West Virginia, but the charging system on the LMTV will be happier and do a better job for you with two batteries. Doesn't have to be anything fancy... Higher CCA's will be better, but the two battery setup is better. On the inside...

. Well yeah. That seems to be how it is. A nice warm day - no events - cold, wet, and windy and everything happens. Kinda like 2021 in the spring... We had a weekend MV show and a berzerk honey bee stung me in the corner of my eye. I have plans this year again - and come hell or high water...

. I can't help but think the corrosion in the barrel. Thicker o-ring might also be to your detriment if it is pinched when you install it. A little bit of silicon lube might be beneficial...

. Interesting. Same experience getting my M37 titled and plated. DMV handed me a regular plate to use until my Antique Auto plate arrived by mail. It was the same First Class Service that I have described in other posts here on these forums. I did recently receive a letter in the mail...

. Well, it's a truck. Looks nice to me. Do you take it for a spin around the block on weekends?

. We as a group need to remember that allowing our government to "toss out" the HMMWV as unregisterable is a bad thing. State by state, tearing down the group vehicle by vehicle makes it easier to DIVIDE and CONQUER. The next thing will be those "big ugly 5-Ton trucks" or the "big scary 7-Ton...

. Sad but true. The old guys who had their A$$ bombed off by the japs in pearl harbor still carry the resentment. I wasn't old enough to be there and most of us still alive today aren't either - but there are a few who still remember... Even stranger - and nobody has been able to show me...

. Sharp looking truck!

. Well said @Skinny ! New rubber everywhere you see it is a definite plus - and relatively easy to fix for not a lot of bread...

. Looks like a LOT of work went it to that - and you still have a long way to go... It's looking good though!

. I agree, but an electric one would be about the same.
