2007 a good year to get a 5 ton

[ARMYMAN30YearsPlus]

I was at Lakehurst and saw a lot of trucks that looked like they would be going to DRMO in the near future especially from what the National Guard guys there said. Also the site is not manned by a GL guy so it was a real pleasure working with the National Guard Soldiers who manned the site. Here are a few pictures of what may be coming available this year.

I hope that many of them wind up in Steel Soldiers driveways and garages

Are they mostly tractors?

My OD fever/disease must be getting worse...................... To me, all those trucks look like stray puppies who all need a home

Is that Lakehurst, NJ? I may be in a position to get one of those tractors this year.
Here's to hoping!

 

[red devils dude]

yes that will when I'm looking.

Coincidentally, I'll be up there tomorrow at the EMALS site. Post any requests and I'll see what I can do.
Geeze, that lot is usually mostly empty! Wonder where the tanks are that I saw over there a few months ago...

The trucks are nice - but I'd rather have one of those airship hangers in the background.....now that's a shop/garage!

Wow, I see all sorts of stuff I could use. Let's hope Foreign Military Sales doesn't hoard all of them like they usually do.

Thank you very much Armyman. Lakehurst is probably the closest auction location I'll ever see for a long time. I've been trying to talk my bro into a 5tonner. Any dumps? My Deuce has never been of the Island yet. I can't wait to flat tow over the GWB and Cross Bronx Expressway. Thats an adventure. I wonder how much six axles cost through the tolls?

I want a tractor bad...but then I will have to buy a trailer. hahaha

 

[hippiedude]

Can we go over and play in them!!!

 

[MATT]

Those are nice but I want one of these. MTVR or MTT! Is the military using these?

Will these replace the duce someday soon??

 

[hndrsonj]

I am willing to bet most will wind up overseas!

 

[westfolk]

You know David......one of those trucks would easily have fit on your M127. The most you may have to do is take the top down. But I doubt you'd need to do that.

That's funny and sad at the same time!

Do I need counseling?

Between overseas sales and the big dealers who buy them to sell to loggers and miners..........They won't go cheap.

There is ALOT of hardware up there. Will try to post pictures tomorrow. HEMMIT's, 2.5 ton's, 5 ton's, tractors, a wrecker, tow and semi trailers, long beds...bunch of stuff. Some are marked DRMO and they appear top be from the NJ Guard.
