Hey another new guy to the site. Looking to buy a m1009 shortly and an M35A2 in 6 months or so. I'm 26 been in the U.S. Navy for the last 8 1/2 years. Currently freezing in Maine hoping for some place warmer next tour. No stranger to GM trucks/cars though. Thanks for giving this gear head in uniform a place to find gears that use to be in uniform.

Hey as far as m1009 locating I have seen several in NY and NJ that about as close to Maine as I have seen. Might have to try local adds and craigslist to find your vehicle. Good luck and thanks for your service.

Welcome drewmech! My sister lives in northern Maine and said they've been getting earlier than normal snow, appearently its not a good sign if you dont like long cold winters;-). Good luck on your MV quest and try and stay warm!

Thank you for the warm welcome. Keeping warm in Maine isn't to hard. People just look at me funny cause all of my cold weather gear is intended to be hunting gear. The only plus about Maine is you don't have any issues getting or keeping your beer cold. I've been checking out craigslist for a MV. The issue is the environment on the roads up here. The salt tends to chew up vechiles. Not looking for a pile of iron ore on wheels. I'll keep digging around. The one good thing about being in the military is the ability to jsut walk over to the DRMO office and ask about what their going to get rid of. As for my service it is my pleasure and honor to be in uniform.
