year of manufacture is 1991. My truck is untitled, & currently in Oregon. I was out of state, so had it deliveredthere. We live in a motorhome, & are considering relocating to Or. (Bend area). Have an additional concern: Does anyone have ideas for insurance coverage other than commercial coverage?

Thank you for the suggestions, Chaplain, you are so right. I appreciate you pointing out the insurance threads. I'll check those threads out. Me and Google Search are old friends. As you point out, there are literally hundreds (thousands?) of threads on insurance. Unfortunately, as happened this morning when, after posting a query on insurance for heavy trucks, I received a call from an insurance company. They all seem to want the customer to change companies so they can sell car insurance, but are clueless on insurance for Military Vehicles. Guess that is why forums such as Steel Soldiers are so valuable.

Like the Chaplain said, take a look at Historic vehicle insurance or collector vehicle. My vehicles have been insured through one of the major collector vehicle companies for several years at a reasonable rate. Fortunately haven't had to use them, but they are there just in case.

Amer-team, you ROCK! I am so excited! I'm looking at Hagerty Insurance for Collector Vehicles, and they specifically list military vehicles! Will give them a call in the AM and see what they say. Thanks so much for the clue for Collector Vehicles!

I registered my M934A1 as an RV. To do so you must sign an affidavit stating that you made modifications (permanantly mounted toilet, stove, sleeping area) to the vehicle. No tonnage required

As for tonnage, the minimum tonnage you can carry is 1.5 times the curb weight of the vehicle. The max is tonnage is the max GVW of the vehicle. Tonnage is to include any trailer the vehicle will be towing as well.

The DMV will allow you to get darn near what ever you want. They do not regulate the requirements, they just collect the money. It is up to you to have the proper tonnage and registration.

That is good information, thank you.

Man, life sure has been busy. MV's have been on a back burner for sometime for me. I haven't done anything to my MV's since the July rally. Between little league and now hunting, it'll be a few more weeks.

Finally got the SF-97 for Tiny (M923A2) and sent it off to get the title and registration. While I'm waiting for that, we are trying to buy a house down in LaPine, OR, and gradually getting our stuff moved down there. Of course, with all of that going on, Tiny isn't getting a lot of love. But once we have finished the move, Tiny will be inside and we can start working on some of the corrosion control.

I live/lived in three rivers south just north of lapine. Mike keep hunting so can work on my trucks. I'm going for first place next year, I've got a lot catching up to do.

 

[taperrine]

First Place? Oh, heavens... Another goal to work towards! So much to do, so little time, and, as usual, no clue what I am doing it for! Oh well, don't worry about the mules, just load the wagon!

 

[goodguyzy]

Here is a pic of the beast.............Im going to repaint and some other mods but that's about it.

 

[taperrine]

Awesome rigs!

 

[wsucougarx]

Outstanding Zy!!!! You bringing the M1070 up next year? I wasn't planning on making it to the July rally but may show up if the HET makes a debut.

 

[goodguyzy]

I didn't make it this year and am really shooting for next. With the HET I can carry the whole fam now.

 

[srodocker]

[drician]

Who doesn't want a turn behind the wheel of the HET. Speaking of that, can I have the next turn after srodocker?
