I'd guess 47,000 miles. My 1986 m1009 has fewer miles and doesn't look to much different. Fun vehicle. I like the diesel engine.

Question on the M1010 Ambulance Red Cross side Symbols. Are they painted directly onto the vehicle or are they individual panels painted with the Red Cross symbol, that are attached to the vehicle?

The good people at Cambridge, MN, will pack and ship your Govt. Liquidation item to you. I stopped at their site to pick up a pinball hitch that I won.

Does anyone know if there's a shipping service in Cambridge, MN that will pickup, package and ship via FEDEX?

Thanks for the replies: interesting and enlightening. My 81 year old brain appreciates the information.

Just wondering if anyone has an estimate of the number of HUMVEES sold since GP started to offer them and also an estimate of how many remain to be offered via GP?

I've purchased two vehicles via GP and satisfied/happy with both vehicles. There have been minor glitches, but both times the issues were quickly resolved. Their experienced employees have been extremely helpful. By contrast, my experiences with GL have not been good . After GP took over the...

Nice pictures, nice Truck, interesting discussion. I'm a Snowbird spending 6 months in AZ and 6 months in northern MI each year, I would jump at the chance to go out off-roading, but age caught up with me. I have a 39 year old brain with an 80 year old body. Sold my M35A3 and M923 as they just...

Recently sold my M715. New owner had it running in 3 hours or so. He also does body work, so will end up with a nice looking vehicle when done. I'm not a mechanic, can change oil and put in new spark plugs and that's about all. Good luck with your vehicle. I still have a M725, that I'm painting...

A friend of mine (deceased) logged out of the Park Falls area for many years - ran 3 crews, skidders/slashers/trucking, etc. I recall him telling me that everything had gotten so expensive and complicated the he felt he could get rid of everything and...

Years ago (50) in northern MN we used #2 in the summer and #1 in the winter in all diesel engines (Graders, Dozer, etc.) An occasional shot of ether also helped. Tried ether on my gas engine, 1952 Studebaker, at minus 20; and a backfire ignited all the old oil/grease on the engine. No fire...
