MV of the Month January 2024

[Migginsbros]

Good day and a happy and healthy new year 2024. It´s not necessary to be an admin, so this month we will start the famous Military Vehicle of the Month Nomination thread.
We will be curious of seeing members MV and hear about some interesting backround.


Welcome to the January 2024 MV of the Month Nomination Thread!

To submit a nomination the rules are :

1. - You may nominate your own vehicle or another SS Members vehicle (please get the member's permission first). Do not nominate vehicles not owned by an SS Member.

2. - ONE good photo must be submitted with your nomination. PLEASE POST ONLY ONE PICTURE AND NOT A LINK!!!

3. - Previous winning vehicles from the current year cannot be re-nominated.

4. - One vehicle nomination per member per month unless you nominate another member's vehicle...not your own. You can ONLY nominate ONE of your own. (It's to keep things fair).

5. - Nominations will close at 20:00hrs (8PM) on 24 January 2024 ( this month is a little bit tight) and the "Vote Thread" will open as soon as The Boss can open it. All times listed are Eastern Standard Times.

6. - Please do not "campaign" for your favorite MV on THIS thread...wait for the "Vote Thread" then have at it!!


P.S. It´s only for fame and honor and if it´s like last year for being a steel soldier calendar beauty.

"Lol what stinks is I can't put current pics of the M715 up because I want to enter her this year in her new configuration and don't want to "spoil" it... "

Think the first nomination should be reserved for Ken and his family.

Ummm... the rules clearly state if it hasn't won THIS year, you can nominate any vehicle you have.

Yea i understood that i just didnt feel the need to put the truck in again its already won once so my thing was let somebody else that hadnt won have a better chance ! I have a big soft spot for underdogs !

I'll nominate myself, why not. A few of you know my rig specs by now but for those that don't, almost a month ago I took the plunge on my first MV, and refuse to go back. This is a 1969 Kaiser Jeep M35A2 W/W, Hercules engine, C turbo, Factory Hardtop with heat. Speedo stopped working God knows when, ticker shows near 4400 miles. Drives like new, no hands on the wheel, 48mph, straight as an arrow (not that I have ever taken hands off the wheel) Added equipment so far is a small cheap 12v panel, battery box mounted interrupt switch, Curt 20k Receiver hitch mounted under the pintle, decent 10ft paint job, 24v marine diesel alternator, and a block heater. Factory ether start is in tact and functional, but goes unused. She gets the job done well, and looks great doing it. What more could one want?

I thought somebody ( @patracy ) had to close down the voting on the 15th of the month and open up a voting thread. Doesn't matter to me - but I thought the voting started sometime after the middle of the month?
