On the class a issue. I have had one since i was 18 and im 51 now. I have had real civialian trucks in the past but inless you are really using one or needing one its not worth the expense and exposure to dot rules. If you register any mv as a FORMER MILITARY VEHICLE in texas you are not...

oops To remove the 818 i had to unload the cargo with my forklift then dig a pit with my track loader to back the trailer in to. The 818 cranked right up and i backed it off. The driver told me that no effort was made to start the truck where it came from even though they had a ramp.it was...

I have wanted one for a long time and have been in a few on bases. They are addictive !! I have 2 clean daily driver deuces but this 818 has power steering that is effortless and a real cummins nhc 250 small cam engine that is almost new . Next is an m172 trailer and then we will be cooking...

The truck was delivered last sunday. I have been at ft hood working so i havent had time to reply. I was starting to sweat it but after taking advice i found here i just got on u ship and requested quotes after getting a high quote from a gl approved shipper. I ended up accepting a bid from a...

Yeah i have always wanted one and i waited until a nice one with a winch came along and the shipping is running almost as much as the truck but i think its worth it not to put the wear and tear on it before i get to service it and get to know it. I have an m109 and an m35a2 that i selected a...

I will post pics after this is over but after much head seratching and the issue of the truck being demil a and me having to pick it up now or possibly loose the money and the truck i decided to have it shipped. That is another story but i found a really good shipper and the truck was loaded...

Lot 8813 Yeah im a contractor that works on military bases in texas oklahoma and louisiana, and im living on fort sam houston in san antonio now but i havent ventured this far yet. This will be a learning curve fo sho. Anyone know of any good shippers ????? And just in case it comes up i...

Just won an 818 that runs. Trying to decide on shipping or driving home. Anyone have any input on shippers or any other comments will be appreciated Tanks Very Much !!

Oops, Sorry about the misinformation on rod but that is what he told me and things must of changed.:roll:

That was chester that helped you. Rod is gone now, part of the new GL plan

Chester at Ft.Sam GL is the man!! Very helpful and when i won 2 M-109's there they did have slave cables. If these trucks are not in their lot you may have support trouble. If these are the ones in the dirt lot they are somewhere else.

Hats off to carnac !!! Just to let you know i received the corrected sf-97s and registered the trucks as former military vehicles in texas. Dont even need plates, you can stencil the numbers that you pick on the bumpers and put the state sticker on the windshield then you are done. Your VIN...

The Mighty Carnac saved me a lot of grief also on this titling Stuff !!! Hats off to Carnac !!

I thought the same thing but i am just trying to dot the i's so i only have to do this once !! Thanks Again and stay tuned.

O wise one i received 2 SF-97 forms and both are incorrect. I have called then e-mailed to start the process and have a question for you ???? Do i list the manufacturer as Kaiser Jeep or Jeep Corp. ??? Thanks
