    There's nuttin' like multi-species Public Housing. We can only presume that NONE of them were paying rent, huh? Wondering if your "charity" housing arrangement will net you any extra votes.

    Title issues in Arkansas with HMMWVs

    Ref the line above that's been made large and BOLD... Nor does "it" allow any State to negate it's own participation in the standing RECRIPROCITY AGREEMENT between ALL 50 STATES to honor the LAWS of the State in which a vehicle is LEGALLY registered whenever said vehicle is operated in their...

    Steel Soldiers MV of the YEAR 2017 - VOTE HERE!

    Choosing the best of the best is going to be tough. I think I'm going to take a knee and pray before casting my vote. We have almost 2-1/2 weeks to consider the candidates. I hear the Jeopardy Theme Song!!!

    recently won from GSA...an M63A2!

    I had seen that auction offering and hoped that a SteelSoldier would snag it and save it. Congratulations! It's good to hear that you have big plans for such a worthy old MV. Carry on.

    Towing a m818

    I find that quite curious. Can you confirm that this applies to towed vehicles of the size/weight of Deuces and 5-Tons, or is it just smaller classes such at passenger vehicles? Thank you.

    Towing a m818

    Hmm. Is this the only law for which you seem to have total disregard? As I recall, the SS website rules discourage (prohibit) posts about circumventing LAWS. I believe that if you check the laws in your state, you'll find out the "rules of the game" in which you seek to play. Just sayin'...

    Very nice! And YES it is indeed much more affordable on a GREEN IRON ADDICT'S budget.

    Towing a m818

    And I think it DOES! As I recall... In my "pre-flight" testing when I recovered our M818, I hooked up the air hoses from the back of the Deuce to the front of the M818, then pulled forward and used the brakes while still on gravel and dirt. She stopped very nicely. I did it again once I was...

    Are y'all trying to tell us: "What happens in the back of a 5-Ton stays in the back of a 5-Ton?" Hmmmm..... God's watching you! roflrofl

    Hard Choice: Buy M923A2 -OR- Wait For LMTV ?

    And once again we're finding that there are as many opinions as there are people who have them. For the time being, I am content with an M35A2 and an XM818 in our motorpool, complimented by an M105 and a 220KAK (1960 vintage 26' Box Van Trailer - pre-sea container dry good hauler). They have...
