New member waiting on delivery of M1008

[dconn22]

Hi all, been reading a lot of SS posts the last couple months while deciding if I was going to make the plunge and get a military vehicle. Ended up going a little conservative with a M1008, looked in pretty good shape but we'll see how good I did after it is delivered. My first MV and first diesel so I'm sure you'll see me asking so newbee questions. Have done a fair amount of research and as far as I know mine is stock and unmolested, again we'll have to see how true that is after I get it in my hands. Just wanted to say hello from N. Texas.

Welcome to Steel Soldiers!

Lots of reading ahead, and be patient. The CUCV Stickies are very helpful as well.

Good Luck!

Thanks, have downloaded more manuals for this than any other vehicle I have ever owned (choose not to get some of the mil opt equip ones)

I have evolved from 5 tons and deuces to multiple CUCVs and now down to one. They are a great vehicle as long as you accept their limitations.
