Rory, I saw this thread when you first posted, but did not have time at that moment to read it. So, I clicked the Watch button and (not so patiently) waited until I could read the whole thread. What a treat it was this morning! Your writing style makes for a very enjoyable read. That’s in...

Thanks for posting this! It’s funny… I didn’t get a single picture of my HMMWV at the show. 🤷‍♂️

As @Mogman said, you can elect to use your bumper number in lieu of a license plate when your vehicle is registered as a FMV in Texas. This is a good read: https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/texas-fmv-laws-former-military-vehicles.67255/

@frauhansen - You have one good looking truck. And knowing that it fits in the garage at the pub is good intel! I loaded my M1097R1 up yesterday morning and drove to Giddings, Texas where I met several other SS members at a car show. I connected with @texas30cal in Brenham and we...

Today was “Take your HMMWV to work Friday,” which (in my humble opinion) should be a national holiday. I put 110 miles on the M1097R1 and averaged 12.6 mpg. Much of the commute was highway driving at 55mph. Here’s a glimpse at the downtown Houston skyline over the hood. Anyone from...

Howdy from just down Hwy 105 in Montgomery. Welcome to the site! There are several SS members in the area. We just had our annual rally in College Station this past weekend. Rally details, pictures and videos are here >> https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/2023-tx-mv-rally.213025/ I...

My wife and I have an arrangement. I can have as many MVs as I want, but I may not rent more storage space. This thread is giving me ideas….

We were in the front parking lot across from the main entrance and vendor area at the museum. The same place as last year. Although we didn’t get much foot traffic (i.e., people walking across the parking lot), everyone could see our trucks.

Follow (or “Watch”) this year’s thread. We’ll bump it next year when a new thread is posted. So back on topic, I put 177 miles on the M1097R1 this weekend attending the rally and averaged 9.4 miles per gallon. I had a M105 trailer in tow for most of those miles.

The annual rally was this weekend. We are all getting home now. Information, pictures and videos are here: https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/2023-tx-mv-rally.213025/

So @CallMeColt got his truck running and left under his own power this morning. Hopefully he gets home with no issues! I made it home and just beat the rain storm. I’ll let the rain pass before I unload my trailer. Here are a couple of pictures from Saturday. It is always a treat to see the...

So folks are trickling in.

I was wondering if you’d make it @sue

That was fast… the M105 steak board is spoken for.

I’ve got my truck and pull behind “tent” ready to go.

Here are pictures of my M105 stake rack.

Well, if you are ok being seen in a HMMWV, then you are welcome to jump in with me.

The forecast calls for great weather this weekend. Rain may blow through College Station mid-day tomorrow and then clear out for the rally.

I had the high beams on for that picture. Ok…. Call me the slow one in the family…. What do you mean by “proper adjustment height”?
