I think that truck is alot newer than the data plate states. That is not the correct data plate for that truck.

Yes, there were two sets of dataplates, and a lot of the cab parts had items with DLA contract dates that were four years younger than the truck, all in new configuration (not used). Inside the cab is 'like new' even down to the smell. It was converted for the arctic configuration, and while they had it apart, upgraded to the latest specifications. It would be a great Alaska truck!

It’s still in Columbia now , waiting for the sf-97 from dla. Once all the export licenses are done it’s going to shipped from Charleston to the Netherlands. But it’s drives perfectly now.

Something doesn't add up with that truck. It has features that would indicate it's a 2007 or newer.

Lucky bass turd! lol. I tried bidding on that, I was shocked to see what it went for. But for probably one of the last newest LVADs it is probably a bargain. Please let me know if you find the X strap for removing the cab roof in the toolbox. Nice rig!

I found the user manuel in the toolbox new in the bag, there where some straps in it but I have no idea if that's the x strap. Do you have a picture of it ?
