Holla.

What meens the green flag on the steering weel.
I saw it on some GP pics (HUMVEE).

Where is Y?

Hi.
You don't know the licence plate with the Y ?

 

[doghead]

No games, please just follow the site rules.

 

[Stinkmarder]

OK.
I will change it.

"Y" is the prefix for Bundeswehr military vehicles.

 

[Stinkmarder]

Yes it is.
The Y ist the End of GermanY.


But nobody knows the meaning of the green flag?

Honestly, it's probably that yard's internal tracking mechanism. Nothing official. Probably them marking it as "Bob has looked at this" "ready for photos" or something. You can see on a lot of trucks stateside that they'll have DRMO in spray paint on them, or other markings. It's just a way to keep track of tens of hundreds of items that all look almost-exactly the same.

If that's the same one I saw online on Gov planet the description says it has massive steering play...in the pictures you can see that the steering box is cracked. When I got my Blazer from them mine had one too....brake line was broken so no brakes...could be a warning for a yard guy to not go nuts driving it.

it means this vehicle is surplus, send for disposal. I see them all the time
