    Wolverine movie DOES NOT USE REAL HUMMERS!

    Now you see why its best that some of us wait until the movie comes out on dvd, so we can watch it at home. It makes the moments a when you blurt out "Hey I have one of those!", or "no way, they didn't have those back then!" a little less awkward. :p

    Wolverine movie DOES NOT USE REAL HUMMERS!

    Don't forget the REO - m35 they tried to disguise as a zil-131 in the truck chase scene. I picked that one out right away.

    Yeah, I doubt the dead battery status, and missing battery just happened by chance. I figure they didn't even look into verifying what was actually in those things. They probably found a comparable model on eBay, and just cut and pasted the specs. For future endeavors into tough-book buying, (if...

    GovDeals.com and bad item descriptions

    You might check your auction page to see what kind of guarantee they give about misrepresentation. Most of the IT equipment I see on GovDeals comes with a clause like " any claim of misrepresentation must be made before removal of equipment." Coming from the IT field in the government sector, I...

    What models were you tricked into buying? It sounds as if they mistook two CF-28s as CF-29s. I have two CF-29s with the 1.6g processors. They make great mechanics computers.

    Lets see your DEUCE!

    Here's my contribution. The M109 comes home on Monday. Then it starts its transition into a camper.

    EUC sale 5068

    I received mine today. It didnt take too awful long considering my last one took over 60 days. My (new to me) m105 should be in my driveway by the end of next week.

    New Guy in Oklahoma

    Welcome Aboard! Its good to see another Okie here, and "hopefully" rolling down the road in a nice piece of OD iron one day. When you finally go to purchase, don't forget to check craigslist. You can sometimes find great deals on trucks that are already titled and tagged. As for the creature...

    Still serving in Iraq (with pics!)

    Yea those guys will use just about anything, as long as it rolls down the road. I once saw a motorcycle front end, mated with a small truck rear end (bed and all). They were using it to harvest crops. I like the old Huey's they are using now. Those things have the most unique rotor sound. I...

    Still serving in Iraq (with pics!)

    Yea!! thats a good idea. I wonder how much it would cost to DHL em' home? 8) I bet I could buy another truck for what it would cost. :razz:. As far as seeing them on the surplus market, I would say the chances are slim to none, I figure this will be their final resting place. Also I have some...

    Still serving in Iraq (with pics!)

    The motorpool guys use them for the most part. I know for a fact that the 514th QM owns the black one. They mainly get used to ferry troops to and from the mess hall nowadays. I would love to see what one would look like up-armored. Although I wouldnt be able to send pictures of them then....

    Still serving in Iraq (with pics!)

    Ok, Im here on Camp Andaconda, AKA Balad, Iraq. I have noticed a few m35's running about, and I decided to snap a few pictures of the old steel veterans. Most of them are still in the original configuration. Although if you look closely at the black one with the star, you can see that they have...

    Wow! Just read your thread and seen the pics. I will definitely keep the batteries secured. It looks like someone used a torch on your battery cover, LOL.

    Wow, what a coincidence. I think combst32 mentioned something like that. I am very pleased with the condition of the truck, and look forward to driving it when I return home in July. P.S. Barneyszoo, Having BRD in California, is kinda like being an alcoholic in a dry county. I feel for ya.

    I also have an advanced form of BRD. Ive had it for a few years now. It all started when I was exposed to something called an AR-15 at a gun range one time. I and my checkbook have never been the same since. :razz:

    Pauls valley is a nice place. I have been through there many times. Oklahoma is easy to fall in love with. I wouldn't live any place else. Plus there's plenty of room down here to enjoy cruising around in your MV
