There are tons of HMMWV's being DRMO'd now. A guy at Camp Shelby told us that if govt agencies don't buy them they get shredded. I don't see them changing that policy any time soon. The govt deems them "unsafe" for public use.
Plenty of cargo trucks, tractor trucks, wreckers, etc - utility use vehicles
HMMWV - tactical vehicle
It's all based on the liklihood of DRMS bringing them up to standards. I don't see them caring enough to do that.
One of the reasons AM General stopped the H1 Line was having to get the truck compliant with Federal Crash standards, that would have required that they crash
test several $150,000 Durmax equipped trucks....remember, the H1 has a Ford Escort Sterring column. So alot of the parts used to make it compliant "in 1992-2006" were just off the shelf Parts.
For those waiting for the Day that DRMO yards are filled up with HMMWV's with Event and Lot numbers...Hold your Breath....LOL
on a similar Note, I have noticed that the DRMO Yard at Travis is filling up HMMWV's in the past few weeks. Slantbacks, 2 and 4 door rag tops.
All look to be A1...faded camo paint etc...but all runners.
