Hi guys, just bought my first military truck, 1971 AM/General M818. I'm sure I will have lots of questions. This looks like a great site, glad to be a part of it.

Welcome to the site. You will find a lot of good information and good people here. You just missed the Georgia Military Vehicle Rally. Hopefully, we'll see you next year.

Welcome to the Site and the hobby! All kinds of questions... Is it a 1971 Convertable with a soft top? I have more fun with that - telling friends that I have an '84 Convertable. I am personally on a quest for a hard top for my M936. Think I have a deal locked up maybe - but the Chinese Virus has worked hard to ruin a lot of plans.
There are Technical Manuals (TM's) posted here. They are overwhelming at first glance, but there is a wealth of information in them!
Be sure to post some pictures of your new toy. It will give you the ability to see how far you have come - and all of us a chance to see your "new sweetie".

Bought a M818, What to look out for?
Fairly new member from Southern California. Have a M1009 and partially refurb'd it for daily use, love that truck. Just stepped up and bought a M818 5-ton, but not sure about anything on it even the year. The listing has it as a '85 Kaiser XM818 6x6. Here are the details that were provided...

And she is a "convertable to boot"! Little too cold now, but in the spring being able to drop the top is kinda cool... Nice truck!
