Default Any Wins Today? Question about Oklahoma City Base

So who won what today? I ended up grabbing an M818 and an M35 out of OKC. My question is does this base have a loading ramps as I'll be shipping these home on a flatbed. This is my first experience buying out of OKC so any experiences/help would be appreciated. Any good contacts at the base- please PM me.
Thanks,
Andy

They have a loading ramp. And they seem to be good guys there. Just hope they keep the fork lift forks out of the radator. Unlike my last truck from there

Oh I got another XM818 today also Please someone make me stop ,I need help. Is there a doctor in the house???

Well, I would like to say I won that M923A1 in Gulfport, but alas, I didn't have $18k. It was a cherry truck. I was thinking about a nice 816 with a gondola at Meade too, but it went for $13k+.

That M923A1 was so sweet I would have walked from Michigan to get it, but I don't have the $18K either.

You will probably be dealing with Steve at Tinker. I am somewhat local, so let me know if I can assist with anything.

I didn't win the truck, Josh. Too much dinero for me. I was trying to sell a kidney for it today, but couldn't find a matching recipient.

Default thanks

Thanks M1075 for the offer- I might take you up on that depending on how things go. I'm glad to hear they have a loading ramp!!!

JasonJC- Glad to hear you snatched an XM818. I thought most of the tractors in OKC looked pretty decent.

Andy

My last one looked good in the pic but had the fork hole in the radator. This new looks good too ,just need a top. Good thing it will be warm when I go get it.
