SF-97 Gov Planet to stop providing them ?

[springbok]

Nothing about making the HUMVEE street Legal !!!!

I was informed yesterday by one if the big military parts/vehicle suppliers in Delaware that they had gotten an email that gov-planet would no longer be offering the SF-97
Does anyone else know about this, is it true ? ? ?

Not that I care, my wife cut me off from getting anymore, blamed it on the driveway being crowded and wanting to do a vacation this year, you know, wife reasoning...

Figured I would ask.

I got mine. The only thing I know of is that they stopped issuing FL titles.

 

[springbok]

I was told this Yesterday. Guess we have to wait and see.
Word is, to many were getting around the off road only. AGAIN, not asking how, why, anything about making one street legal.
I hate to say but I hope it is true, it will make mine that came from the Marine auction that came with titles worth more again

 

[DanM7890]

I'm curious what's going on with them. I bought mine because I knew they were issuing this paperwork. If I knew you get nothing, I wouldn't have bought.

 

[Jwade]

This is not true! We have temporarily stopped issuing FL titles due to FL looking at how they want to classify them. The SF97's are still going to be issued.

 

[springbok]

Jwade, thank you for clearing that up.
Was told it was in an email sent to them.
If I get a copy of the email I will forward it to you...

 

[Jwade]

Yeah I would love to see where that is coming from.

 

[Gunzy]

It must be true, I saw it on the internet. Sorry, had to go there. LOL

Let me add, whom ever is selling Govt vehicles is bound to issue a bill of sale and SF97. Far to many states require the SF97 to get title for "Off road use". A title proves ownership, it's a legal document.

 

[goldneagle]

I would look at any info/ rumored by any vendor with skepticism. Could be a scare tactic or purpose misleading. "Buy the HMMWV from us because you won't get title from GP..."

 

[Jwade]

I wanted to add that we are anticipating the title issue resolved soon! We are also exploring our options and moving our dealer status to other states as well.

As mentioned the SF 97 is a legal document. Which states any alteration makes it void.
Any comment on the "off road" stamp that the titling department uses on the document after it's in GP's hands?

Are you stating that Florida may issue a road title soon jwade?

The "1999" trucks were also sold for off road use to the original purchaser, but this was stated on the BOS and not the F97. Titling and street registration are two different things.

 

[springbok]

PLEASE.. Do not ask anything about "Road Titles"
My info was via a phone call, I asked here to see if it was true or BS.
BlackMajic, please delete your question.. Want to clearly keep with the topic at hand, nothing about On Road..
Thanks

Here, here!

 

[Blackmagic94]

No I won't delete that comment. JWade works for Gp and I'm asking him to clarify what he meant about exploring titling options with other states. If Gp is making this comment we deserve to ask for clarrification.

 

[TwoStates]

Since the topic has been brought up, what is the current SF97 wait time after approval?

 

[98G]

Are you stating that Florida may issue a road title soon jwade?

Looks to me like he said Florida may go back to issuing titles as before, or GP might seek dealer status (and thus off road titles) in another state.

I didn't see anything remo8referring to street use.

Tread very lightly guys. Again it is up to DLA to get rid of the OFF ROAD only questions. Until "official" word is issued from the DLA this site will not allow that discussion.
