    IronPlanet is a joke!

    Yep I used to go by the plant every day on my way to work. My dad worked for Bendix and had to go into the Mishawaka plant back in 1990 to show them how to mount a master cylinder on Hum-vees. He was in charge of the "B" foundry in St. Joe. They sent him down personally to inspect. Seems the...

    IronPlanet is a joke!

    Thank you NDT. I did due diligence on this site. Read everything. Checked all the Stickies. Talked to my old collector buddies. The AM General and BMY thing is happening RIGHT NOW. I have gotten kicked-back at every turn by everyone. Maybe the MVPA can lobby for Federal DLA exemptions or...

    IronPlanet is a joke!

    Mckoen thank you! Finally a straight answer! So to summarize----Class A or B CDL, Air Brake endorsement and Commercial Insurance. Anything else and you are risking your home and all future earnings driving these 5 tons. I get it now. Thanks again!

    IronPlanet is a joke!

    I know guys. I have read many of your posts about where, how and what before I started bidding. I have a friend in Holland Michigan that has a museum and he can pull his out for parades only. I want to drive it as a personal vehicle. Our SOS says I do not need to have a CDL w/endorsement if I...

    IronPlanet is a joke!

    Also, I am aware of the knowledge on this site. I read everything about the 5 ton for two months. Very good stuff here. When I went to follow that info Michigan shot me down every which way but loose. Insurance, Secretary of State and Use-Tax people. I called IronPlanet and told them to default...

    IronPlanet is a joke!

    Progressive is also reviewing their policies. I talked to Dwayne at 18007764737 (Progressive) Extension 9100948 Progressive is NOT insuring the 939 series. I was attempting to insure this as a COMMERCIAL vehicle! I could not even do that!

    IronPlanet is a joke!

    Shark Bait that answers nothing. What did you use for a 17 digit VIN? How is it insured? By what insurance company? I own a farm and live in the country and State Farm and Farm Bureau laughed at me said "NO WAY!" My $50,000 JD5520 is insured with Great American and I have been a USAA member...

    IronPlanet is a joke!

    This whole "buy an M923A2 and have fun" is a joke! I won a bid on an M923A2 from Iron Planet last week! HA! You cannot register it in Michigan without lying about the origin. You cannot insure it, you cannot drive it on the road as it does not meet FMVSL in effect at time of manufacture. No one...
