How long have you owned M809 series trucks?

[BKubu]

I was replying to another thread about M809 series trucks and it caused me to think about exactly when I bought my first M809 series truck. I bought my first M813A1 from DRMO Lakehurst in March of 1999. Before that time, I almost never saw M809 series trucks come up for sale. I had never seen another M809 series truck in private hands before then, although I am sure a few had come out. John Winslow told me that they almost never came out before that time...at least not complete trucks. How long ago did you guys buy your first M809 series truck?

While not being nearly as old as Bruce, I mean, er, not having owned MV's as long as him .......

I believe that I have owned my 809 for only about four years, about 2005-2006 range. Best damn thing I've ever bought!

I got my M813A1 back in 2007 I think. Just have to get that darn T case replaced again.

I bought my first 813 in 1999, and my first M54 in 1994.

If I remember right,I purchased my M816 in the summer of 2002,but it was surplussed out in 2000 if I read the SF97 correctly. it was a 1973 AMGeneral.

My M813 came off Camp LeJeune in Feb '02, went to a museum for a while, then to me in August of '04.

My first 809 series was an M820 for a very short time, basically bought and sold it. That was immediately followed by the M818 I have today. This was just over a year ago, 11-07. My very first MV was an M1008 with 33K miles out of Maguire AFB in Jersey, back in '93.
