Us left-coasters say the same thing about where y'all live all the time! ;) Whether it's a truck or a box of star washers, it always seems to be on the other side of the country when you want it!

All those tire piles didn't have any decent shape 9.00R16 Michelin tires did they? The ones LAV's get.

They had tires all over the place. Next trip post a pic and sidewall info. I'm sure they had them, just not in what shape. I saw the popular tread patterns but was thrown by the size of some of them :shock:

It's basically a 36x10ishR16. They put them on the 6x6 LAV's the Army and Marines use and I think the new Strykers might get them as well. Now being replaced by the 255/100R16's of the newer Michelin styles.

There was a good looking bridge truck pallet (flat bed) sitting on a trailer. Any idea on what he would want for that? Pic 100_3138 (Small).jpg

I'm not sure whether the M548 is for sale, or is one of their toys. They're working on fixing it up. It's lacking tracks and drive wheels right now. I didn't look inside, but it looked pretty good on the outside. It even had a track jack strapped in place on the stowage point on the front.

I couldn't begin to guess about what they might want for the bridge truck pallet. The stuff that we bought was surprisingly cheap, yet they didn't take my offer of $500 for an M936 wrecker. Go figure... :D
