i am as mad as anyone but i am also aware that any talk of fraud could lead this nice hobby to the grave for everyone if we are not careful.

we all unfortunately agree to the terms and hope to make the best of them....i
It's a 40+ year old army truck. We're not talking about cocaine money, here.

What's the penalty for failing to fink in this situation, anyways? According to the paperwork, it looks like you just don't get to participate in future government contracts.

Well I don't know about you, comrade, but if the Fed's ever do something so patently absurd as to demand back a bunch of M35A2s, I don't plan on ever doing business with them again anyways.

Hypothetically speaking, anyways. I don't like army trucks. They're icky.

I guess with everyone torqued at the GL and refusing to bid, some of us will have access to some really cheap trucks..........have I got a deal for you.

Pretty ironic considering I don't even "have access" to the truck I won back in August.

It's really quite puzzling. The deuce I just picked up is a 1969, and its gauges are just plain old painted dials and hands. Definitely nothing radioactive about it... and thankfully, it isn't on the list of those needing inspection.

Does anybody have a deuce that has glow in the dark meter dials? I should think that if they were out there, someone would have noticed by now.

Just a wild guess, this has nothing to do with gauges. Nukes or not.

Sorry guys, my last couple of posts don't help and I don't mean to make fun of your situation. I'd be hot too if they had my money and my truck. Again, sorry.
