The court stuff takes a while and is usually more out of sight. Thanks for the update. I wish you guys in WI a swift victory.
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!

Why go though all the trouble with the state.
YEP! Really. How shady can you get? An exemption for those four vehicles?Time to drag this back out from under the rug. I do not know how I missed this or if it was changed after the fact. During a recent visit to a DMV I grabbed a copy of the collector regs. As usual it states vehicles must be 20 years old and un-modified and un-altered. What I never caught before was it then listed the 4 chosen mv's allowed Dukw,Humvee,Kiaser and Pinzgaur which were listed under the simple statement-Four former military vehicles (even if altered or modified). That last line in parenthesis floored me...............So I can throw a blown small block chevy with side pipes in a Pinzgauer and get collector plates? Guess CUCV owners will have to buy the body off one of the chosen 3 (DUKW) does'nt fit in this anywhere with any reason. and modify it to their chassis if they want to actually use it..............unfreakinreal.

It is fine to issue a collector plate to a Pinzgaur but not a common CUCV?
I don't think there will be a call to arms over this issue. It is probably best if that aspect is not even be mentioned.Luckily they don't issue concealed carry permits cause they have a lot of angry MV drivers that are armed and angry.
I understand that the DOT can do whatever they want, and I do appreciate the effort that was made. I just think that there should have been no mention of any particular model at those hearings. The DOT didn't need any more information than that they are former military vehicles.Fishtail,
Understand that I/we didn't set out to get a list of four vehicles. Please see earlier posts for the details. All I can tell you is: you don't always get what you ask for.
Assuming we are able to get a bill drafted to fix things, I hope you'll be willing to come to Madison and stand up for your/our rights with us. WisDOT has worked very hard to manipulate the laws and policy, and we'll need to stand united to correct things. The alternative is that we lose individually.
PLEASE STAY TUNED FOR UPDATES ON THIS IN THE NEAR FUTURE!
