Won my first surplus government vehicle today..well besides two canoes last year. Anyway got a 101A3 out of Ft. Meade. Went solely on pics, it had sides, bows and cover. I got it for 270.00 which I thought was great. Now the process begins not my first EUC so maybe not to painful. Next...
From my personal experience in the box driving everyday for 10 months the caiman is the far superior vehicle all around, its easy to get in, drives good, rides good and the AC is awesome. The RG33 is a pain in the a** to get in and out of for everyone from the driver to the guys in the back...
The NC Guard has a Hummer that is done in ACU. It is for recruiting and they had it wrapped by one of those companies that does complete vehicle wraps for signs and stuff I believe. I personally think it looks like pooh and would be completely useless except for looks. I think a three color...
REC 6x6 Publications is the exact link I believe to the 2.5 and 5 ton info.
My fire department researched the possibility of using a free duece donation from the state of NC it was a good deal all we had to do was pay a dollar and we would have the truck to do with as we pleased. After much...
The Army requires everyone in a "tactical vehicle" i.e. FMTV, Hummer etc to wear there Helmet. Unit requirements may differ as as far as going above and beyond but I know we always have to wear our helmet. Sometimes we drive in PT gear but we will have a helmet on....and if you do not have...

GL is currently proccessing my first EUC.....for two canoes!!!! I guess they think I might sell them to Iran or Al queda....especially since one has a hole in it. LOL :confused::confused:
I would be interested in a split with someone from NC on one preferably. I can't recover from that distance but I would help with expenses or meet/ride with and help.
As an infantryman and weekend warrior myself I am all for good realistic training. However some things that we do need to be kept in house and amongst the family. I love off roading and there is nothing better than using uncle sam's awesome and capable vehicles and fuel. However some of the...
I am looking at getting a M116A3 trailer. I am interested in the regular bodied trailer as well as the flatbed model that I guess were used for hauling generators. As far as recovery from DRMO goes...do these have to be trailered off the lot or can you tow them if they are towable. I have a...
Been Infantry in the Army National Guard in NC since 2006, just got back from the beautiful city of Baghdad in February. Its good to be back here in the USA on the good dirt and back to the forums. Still looking for that first MV purchase as we speak.
To all my brothers still there and those...
So are the new trucks going to be different than the current FMTV?? Is it going to be the same truck just with an oshkosh tag? How about parts and such will old FMTV parts work on the new ones?
I researched this some and found that the army owns the blueprints however makes exceptions for new...
