I payed $2400 for mine. There was a last minute battle on the truck, so it may have payed a little too much, but I'm happy with the purchase. :-) A couple other trucks went for right around $2000, a non-running one went for $1700 and the best one IMO went for $3300. It had a winch, turret top...
If I resend the paperwork via email, won't that just confuse them? I have already faxed everything, plus emailed a color scan of my driver's license. I don't want to cause a bunch of trouble with them. They may delay processing my paperwork out of spite.
I was kind of hoping to find someone that could haul it or tow it to Washington. I don't want to get someone stuck on the side of the road with a dead truck.
It would be great if you could check it over. I'm dying to know what kind of condition it's in. Check if it starts and whether the brakes...
Just bought a truck pretty much blind. It's located at the USPFO in Draper City South, Utah. Anyone else buy a truck there or live nearby? I'd like someone to eye it and check the brakes and make sure it starts. I would LOVE to do a road trip in it and drive it home. (about 850 miles)

Random photos attached for comparison.
Congrats on the purchase!
I want to purchase a GL truck and drive it home. Seems a little risky to me, but it's great to hear about these successful stories.
Just guessing here, but are you sure the engine is well grounded? I had a 1989 Chevy Caprice that had a poorly grounded engine. This would cause no start conditions that were similar to a very low battery. It clicked, but wouldn't turn over, and it did this randomly. Placing a ground strap from...
Welcome to the site sir! Good to see more locals take an interest in military vehicles.
I don't think there is a local MV club yet, but there may be enough members to create one.
