What have you done to your MTVR today?

[swiss]

Hello. I purchased one on 23OCT. I submitted my EUC form 10/28, GP reviewed it 31OCT, and submitted it to government on 13NOV. Truck did not turn over when they attempted to start it. Having zero personal experience with these machines, I am hoping and praying replacing the batteries it will start.....wishing and hoping!!! I live 5 hours away from the auction.

These are 20 year old trucks that may have had maintenance regularly or not. Seals are dry, the tires dry rotted, fluids in most cases older and dependent on the last mechanic that worked on it things could be properly put back together or not. Now electrical gremlins are a whole other issue and will cause hours and hours of grief and frustration.

So be prepared for alot of work and time. Just my personal opinion after playing with 4 of these so far.
