DLA is crushing everything. This is drying up supply, driving prices higher. If that ever gets reversed, prices may ease.
On one hand, I'm pleased that my modest investment is gaining in value. On the other hand, I'm bummed out because the DLA issue combined with general inflation will make maintenance difficult and expensive. Plus, I'm not interested in seeing FMV's mutate into some sort of elite hobby for wealthy gearheads. I enjoy the hobby more when people of all stripes can own and operate them.
We'd better hope that the military keeps churning new HMMWV's out for a few more years so that they can eventually trickle into the surplus market. I don't see civilians ever getting their hands on functional JLTV's.
