Here is my 1990 M923A2 cargo. It has 1975 documented miles. Government sold it Oct 2013 and it sat in front of a surplus store since, until someone tried to steel it but it was chained and the parking brakes were on so it broke the input shaft on the transfer case and they fled. Owner said heck with it and sold it to me. I just picked it up in Las Vegas NV loaded it on my flatbed trailer and pulled it up to 8800 feet elevation at home in northern NM with my LBZ Duramax. Pulled into the scales to check weight, and totaled 37,120 lbs truck, trailer and pickup, Ouch!! God blessed me, and I made it just fine! All the tools, bags, slave cables, fire ext. maintenance Manual were still locked in the storage boxes and wrapped in plastic, unbelievable! Its like new except for the one shaft. They even shipped it to Kansas in 2008 and had it rhino lined under the cab as part of a preventative maintenance program. Our government taxes at work!!!! Guess I can't complain to much though, with what I was blessed with!
This is going to be my get out of the snow rig. We get 4 feet of snow every winter, and I get tired of plowing 7.3 miles of road with my backhoe, just to have it drift back over the next day. I sold my Deuce and a half which did ok, but this 5 ton should get the job done with ease.
