    Bad Bill for Title Military Surplus Off Road Moves to Virginia Senate

    You can remove Idaho from your ****list. Idaho's law states " 10 49-458. MILITARY VEHICLES. Notwithstanding any provisions of law to 11 the contrary, a vehicle built for the United States armed forces may be reg- 12 istered and operated on public highways of this state,"

    At least one inspection station is still passing M35A2 trucks as of today -

    It isn't that they don't know. They don't care. They want all the big Green scary trucks off the road. Educating them won't solve this.

    I wouldnt risk it. That trip to Home Depot is a *CRIME*, not just a ticket, if you get caught.

    Bad Bill for Title Military Surplus Off Road Moves to Virginia Senate

    Here's my take on it. Free advice and probably worth what you pay for it - The VA law looks designed to relegate MV's to this severely restricted plate and that plate only. The state police have stated they'll fail any MV presented to them for inspection. So, unless you're OK with that...

    Bad Bill for Title Military Surplus Off Road Moves to Virginia Senate

    You'd think that the law would set the inspection standards and the state police would have to adhere to those standards, applying the same rules to everything evenly. As it appears to be written, the inspection standards can be arbitrarily applied unevenly by the state police, failing your...

    Is inspection a recurring event? Or is it just once when you first title it?

    It looks like it is designed to get all the big scary green trucks off the road, Edited again because i decided i said too much that might lead to a thread derail...

    That looks like it grandfathers in current owners with their current usage intact. Am I missing something?

    So then if you've already got plates and already passed inspection you're grandfathered in?

    "All owners of all surplus military vehicles" Edit to clarify - E. The provisions of this section shall apply to all owners of military surplus motor vehicles registered with the Department under any other provision of this Code prior to July 1, 2018. Such owners shall, based on a schedule and...

    Bad Bill for Title Military Surplus Off Road Moves to Virginia Senate

    according to the state police, no sticker = no normal plates. They did not indicate that they'd make exceptions for vehicles where stickers were removed. This is going to be a nightmare to enforce.

    Bad Bill for Title Military Surplus Off Road Moves to Virginia Senate

    I can't think of a way to quantify prices there. It's interesting to note, the places that are restricting hmmwvs and other military vehicles aren't referencing the HHA and the off road stamp. They're restricting them all. And the places that are allowing on road use are also not paying any...

    Bad Bill for Title Military Surplus Off Road Moves to Virginia Senate

    I'll take that bet... Condition - compare average selling price for all GP auction hmmwv's for the 2017 year, compared to average selling price for all GP auction hmmwv's for 2018. We'll define "decrease greatly" as 20% or more difference in across the board ending bid for all variants of...

    Bad Bill for Title Military Surplus Off Road Moves to Virginia Senate

    You'd be able to get the restricted MV plate, which allows for limited on-road use. Or maybe anything... we have yet to see how it'll actually be implemented. Want to be the test case?

    Bad Bill for Title Military Surplus Off Road Moves to Virginia Senate

    As written, it's ambiguous as to what will actually happen during implementation. My best guess says some people will have no problem getting unrestricted plates for everything including the off road stamped hmmwvs, while other people won't be able to get plates for their deuce or 5ton. It's...

    Bad Bill for Title Military Surplus Off Road Moves to Virginia Senate

    "My car is on display every time I drive it" sounds unreasonable to you, because it works in favor of the individual. However, the state's position is "your cat is on display every time it's out of the house on a leash" seems perfectly reasonable to them, when they want me to have an...

    Bad Bill for Title Military Surplus Off Road Moves to Virginia Senate

    I wouldn't count on it. If you were a left leaning judge, who wanted all those big scary green trucks off the road, how would you interpret this - "The provisions of this section shall apply to all owners of military surplus motor vehicles registered with the Department under any other...

    Yes, but.... Consider - it got a lot more attention here than the other one did. Would you have even looked at the other one if I hadn't nudged you with a text?
