Holy crap you can't be serious. Well, worst-case scenario, I have the resources to fight a long and hard court battle should this bill not pass into law. Here in Idaho, MVs absolutely will be titled and registered one day. It's just a question of whether it will be sooner or later.

Yep! I just find it shocking that it only took one person to say, "Nope, these trucks don't meet the standards", without even looking into the standards, and the sheer amount of high-level officials that just blindly went along with it. It only took me about 45 minutes to figure out that there...

Yep. I've never worked with politicians before. But I'm learning. That's for sure. I'm guessing they're not even going to read it, and will respond with a boiler plate once they know what it's about.

That's all well and good, but ultimately the FMVSS exemption continues to be part of the law of the land. When the vehicle was manufactured ​ has no bearing at all. A military vehicle manufactured this morning is equally as exempted as one manufactured in 1992 under this FMVSS clause. Why...

Oh, that wasn't my intent, but if that's what you pulled from it, then it's possible they might interpret it the same way. In all, the text of the bill is actually much stronger - it basically says, "we don't care what the law says or doesn't say - we're going to make these military vehicles...

Beautiful! I have emailed the Idaho Transportation and Defense committee the following: Dear Transportation and Defense Committee, I surmise that no other bill brings together the two roles of this committee as House Bill 506 – legislation authorizing the titling and registration of...

Beautiful! I will send them this information as well. It seems that there are quite a few officials here in Idaho who can't open up a book and read the actual laws.

I'll just upload my own once I get this thing converted over. Already have the troop seats out. rofl

Got it from an equipment dealership. They still haven't taken it off of their website, actually: http://www.equipmentpls.com/inventory/?/listings/trucks/for-sale/6249903/1989-am-general-m998?dlr=1&pcid=2001389224

Yeah, my title never arrived from Montana. So I have to fight that battle first. Meanwhile, I'm fighting this stupid (and most likely, illegal) policy for those trucks that don't have any title.

Also, here's what I sent to the Idaho DMV board secretary just moments ago (in reference to the letter which EasternEmpire posted on page 1 of this thread): __________________________ Dear Sue, Currently, the Idaho DMV is not registering or titling decommissioned military vehicles. In a...

Just took my M998 on its maiden voyage down the driveway. Tires are still standard-issue Goodyears, 4 ea. The driveway is kinda steep. The snow was plowed away leaving sheet ice. Verdict? It seems to handle snow just fine. Ice? I went sliding down the hill. Considering getting them...

Would like to know how you did that. I just got one from Montana and since I know nothing about how this works (they said they'd send the title electronically to Bonner County), I sent an inquiry through the online DMV about what to do next, and they're already giving me a hard time. It's...

Can't wait for the 2018 thread to start. I just picked up an M998, and it's been beat to **** and back. If I had to guess, I'd say it came from 4th ID (unit designation is illegible on the bumpers).

I hate to dig up old threads, but that's what we have to do when we're looking for info, so, we might as well add new findings. As was pointed out, old Jeep CJ7 wiper arms will fit and that way you can get new wipers from your local Autozone. Which is practical. However, there is another...
