Looks like it had a mts system in it. They left the power box, and the antenna mount for you.

Looks nice, were you able to preview it?

Negative I live in las Vegas, couldn't get the time off from work... I had to eye ball the pictures for a long time .... and what is a MTS system??


Only thing I could see missing was the tire cranes extension tube with the trolley need to find out how to get another one ASAP!!

Movement Tracking System, was a satellite based tracking and messaging system. Ran on Windows NT 4.0 and was pretty good for what it needed to do, then we got FBCB2 (Force XXI Battle Command Brigade and Below).

The ram mount, and the little black box underneath it is for it, and the antenna mount behind the cab that is just a flat piece of metal is what the antenna stuck to.

Welcome to the club. I just joined it myself and I'm off to pick mine from GL today. (fingers crossed it is a boring morning of maintenance and safety checks as I prep for a super long 30 mile recovery.

You got a great price on it, 3x less than here in Florida. Get her home & take pictures on the way. Nice truck by the way, makes me want a 5 ton beast!
