What good is a truck that doesn't run, and constantly has major issues when it does? My problem with the M998 and variants is that the use the flawed system of the cucv and design parameter ie auto trans. ect.. M-151 we had during my stint would go places that m998 wouldn't, they where constanly stuck broke down, the 151 could be fixed with the min. of equipment once myself and three other men( 2 carpenters 1 elect. & 1 Plumber) swap out the engines of 3 m151 in 4 hrs in drmo yard with only a small incomplete tool box a chain a few skids and a 4x4. IMO you need alot more to accomplished this with M-998. I just feel they missed the the idea of scale and servibilty when it was introduced.
