You might have seen this one, I found it parked off 141 in Roswell.

This is owned by a gentleman who owns the "Military Depot" army surplus store off of 140 in Roswell, near the old Chadwick Store.

I spent many hours in one of these trucks. It makes me think about who spent time in mine (and what they did to it). A guy from my shift and a guy from another shift got into an altercation. So they began to mess with each others duty vehicles. Long story short, we ended up with one truck with piss in the vents and the other with **** in the glovebox. Don't worry, uncle sam did some spanking. Both were reprimanded, and had to clean the trucks. Some day, a member of this site may own the piss or **** truck.

The lssv's look awesome! closest thing we have down here are border patrol trucks, they are basically the same set up only extended cab's that have been gutted and have air bag helper springs. Almost bought one but the cheapest he had was $12,500.

They definitely look sweet. Too rich for my blood though. I'm cheap.

We were in San Diego last month...I was in heaven walking around NAB Coranado surrounded by sweet LSSV's.....Have seen many here in Norfolk as well. I just want the bumpers and brush guard. Not that either would fit on a 1009. Althouhg I did see a 1009 in Iraq with a front bumper from a humvee on it.....

I'm in Savannah, GA for a two week class and spotted this USAF 2004 CUCV III Tahoe on Base:

 

[combatmech]

Is that at the airguard base on Savannah International??? Do you think "they" would let you...... "BARROW" it for a while???

 

[48cj2a]

Yes, It's over on the Combat Readiness Training Center (CRTC) Side. If I could I'd drive it back home instead of flying.

Ive been seeing a few of these in South Texas.

 

[combatmech]

Looks like a lot of new or rehab'd buildings. I did a det there WAYYYYYYYY back in 2000.
That truck looks nice. I'm sure as the the services get new ones, we'll see them on the market. Or at least we can hope......

 

[48cj2a]

My base just put the last CUCVII in the DRMO line at work so I'm hoping some municipal doesn't snatch it up

Forget an attack with EMP. GM has there own much more disruptive attack on there Diesel powered trucks. Its there electronics Engineering dept! Of our works 6 NEW Chevy 1 tons 5 suffer from "Safe Mode" about 25 diffrent Chevy dealers all across America have tried to figure out what the **** is going wrong. Oh its not a clogged Greeny Diesel exhaust "filter". My truck went into safe mode as soon as I was 1 mile from the dealership! 25 mph top speed. Then it just starts running perfectly! Typical dealer response after a week of trying to find the problem. "Uh everything seems ok now and uh we didnt find anything wrong with your truck. Uh heres your keys". My response now is, "Of course you didnt". THEY KNOW THERES A PROBLEM! Im not the only one they have had with the same problem! They are C R A P vehicles. And dont tell me YOU dont have any problems. If you dont count your self one of the few lucky ones. I will stick with the OLD School CUCV thank you. Now if they make a gas LSVS or whatever they are calling them now then I wouldnt mind owning one. The CUCV II still has the 6.2 6.5 so those are ok in my book.

The Suburbans and Tahoe LSSVs are gassers

Pickups where the Duramax

 

[48cj2a]

The CUCVIIs (2 dr Tahoes) the USAF purchased are 350FI Gas motors... Same engine in my 98 Yukon that has never needed anything except a water pump in it's 130K miles.

Hopefully we don't have to many EMP worries in the states...if we do driving will be the least of our worries since computers are running the entire infrastructure incuding the pump that supplies the diesel at the corner gas station

 

[WARWAG]

LOL I agree. I am glad to hear they are the Gas engine. GM makes the best Gas motors! Im sure they specified gas after all of the problems with the Duracrap engines.
