    Buying First M1008...

    Ok...answered my own question looking at other threads...I must have a faulty memory, cause it is pretty standard for the M1008A1 to have the large communication rack...seemed a lot smaller. :lol: Have decided not to add to my truck. I will just throw a PRC-77 in the back! Here are some more...

    Buying First M1008...

    Buying First M1008...

    If I did not know better, I would swear you all are trying to tell me "don't marry that girl!" Afraid it is already to late... mind is made up. I am sure your expertise and the memory that you "warned me" will get me through any challenges I may encountered. But just in case...job one is to...

    Buying First M1008...

    I am getting ready to purchase my first M1008. I have other vehicles (M-38, M151A2, M37, M274A5), but this is the first vehicle that is a diesel(6.2J). Just checking with you experts to see if there are any pitfalls or downfalls for the M1008 that I should be aware of. The general condition...
