Caution about Iron Planet/Gov Planet HMMWV's
As Tobash said, the Military still have lots of them they are still using them, and until full production of some type of replacement is entering service in numbers they will keep auctioning them off, for years to come. Although some never make it to auction, they do cut some up in pieces for... -

Caution about Iron Planet/Gov Planet HMMWV's
I would say we're in between a NE car and a West coast vehicle. Having just moved a year ago from WA state and I have 9 vehicles (only 3 vehicles in Hawaii, rest of sitting in my shop in WA). I did spend a couple of years living on the Big Island when I was in High School. I've got a lift in my... -

Caution about Iron Planet/Gov Planet HMMWV's
Mogman, we'll see in the long run but I've been using Dexcool in my M998 for about 8yrs now and no issues. For the cooling I also installed the Paradox cylinder cooling upgrade a few years ago on my M998. I'm making my own for the M1097A2, just drilling and tapping the rear cooling plates myself... -

Caution about Iron Planet/Gov Planet HMMWV's

Caution about Iron Planet/Gov Planet HMMWV's
Tobash, in my case I own a house in WA and most of my vehicles are still there including my M998 (w/4L80e conversion). I got a new job in Hawaii and am living here now and the GovPlanet on Island is who I bought both of my M1097A2's from. I'll be building a Shop, then a house on the Big Island... -

Caution about Iron Planet/Gov Planet HMMWV's
I know this should be obvious, but I'll post it anyways. My first HMMWV, a M998 from GovPlanet in Western WA was a '89 in great shape, came from a OR Guard unit with '06 MMA overhaul, 218 w/6.5. Fluids all looked fresh and correct but being anal I swapped everything fresh with Redline...
