small update. My truck is on the hold list but my paid in full invoice just came through. I guess they are still processing EUC's? Good luck to everyone.
That just means they wanted to get paid BEFORE you are allowed to retrieve your prize. No way the holdup was going to impact them getting paid. They were getting paid one way or the other...and I can only hope that your delay is coming to an end.
Bruce is right. There is no limit to how long it may be on hold or how many gauges you may be missing when you recover this truck. You are at their mercy and this is why GL trucks/generators /trailers go for less that buying from the little guy. Also you will get more help from the little guy with issues than from GL. Try taking a GL truck for a test drive. My 2 cents on this one..
NHdiesel and I got his truck off of FT Knox today. We had a few minor glitches, but after about 1.5 hrs we had her running and drove her 30 miles to Louisville where he stopped at a friends house to work on a few things before making the trip back to New Hampshire. I am sure he will update when he gets it home.
There was about 150-200 other deuces on the yard, all marked FMS.

I drove by my Guard unit on the way home today and the last 2 deuces were gone. Called my friend at GL and they will not hit GL. Most if not all deuces are going to FMS. The junk will hit GL. This is bad for the young guys now getting into this hobby who just want a good truck, but we all knew that this was going to happen one day like what happened to the M37. GL is not happy since they are losing money just like we are losing accessability to good trucks. There are a finite number of deuces in guard units slated to hit the market in the next 12 months and most will never see GL. This is so sad to see something we love so much just to fade away.. We will miss GL once thewy can only be found on egay and craigslist.

Oh they don't charge you anymore once the EUC clears. They get paid within three days of the auction closing and then you wait for the EUC.

2 points to add:
1. God Bless NHdiesel, thats a long haul back home.I hope his trip is safe. and I hope he won one with a heater.
2. I wonder if the Deuce's at Frankfort were all slated for FMS as well ?
I think one of the things he was planning on doing this afternoon before he left was putting in an aftermarket heater.
I believe that all the Frankfort trucks were initially slated for FMS, but nobody wanted them, so maybe the same will happen to the ones at Ft knox. The sticker on the window says "FMS Freeze", so maybe they don't have a firm destination. Some of them were really rough too so unless they refurb them I doubt anybody would want them.
Marcus said that more Frankfort trucks will be listed soon, he has one that is not on the "list" and a bunch more that are and will be listed once the inspections are done.

From the few pictures it looks like he got a decent truck.
Interesting it has flipped hubs and single street tread tires.
