I found this locally, it has a data tag but is in pretty bad shape and has been painted over several times.. He claims it was exmilitary..
Dimensions are: top deck 11 feet, main deck 30feet, dovetail 4feet.. From what I can tell from the data tag the axles are 20,000lbs each. It looks like...
I picked up 2 from that lot yesterday, I am being told that Monday 9am-2pm is the only load out time for that lot.... Check with simp5782 he does a lot of pickups on that lot, and my be able to help.
I have been noticing that several lots, some On-base and some off-base, are only open for pick up one day a week and it is a short day 9am-1or2pm. I have 2 HWWMVs in a private lot in Texarkana (not New Boston, or RRAD) and am being told the only pickup time is Mondays 9am-2pm. I is making it...
I guess this is one of the highlighted points of this discussion. Action, it would seem you believe the "OFF ROAD ONLY" stamp on the SF-97 and other similar statements on the purchase documents apply to the "LIFE of the Item" .............. While the other side of the discussion is that...
Doghead please help me understand your opinion or stance on this issue. It is unclear to me if you are just being the devils advocate or if you have a personal opinion that the HMMWV is not safe to be on public roads? If you do have the opinion that HMMWV's should not be legally driven on the...
I am not aware of any 1 1/4 ton truck manufactured during the years that these tucks are made that have to comply with most (crumple zones, side door bracing, crash rated bumers) of these items mentioned above.
The Michigan memo says quote "
The principal reason the federal government limits ex-military Humvees for off-road use only is because they are not street legal due to not being manufactured to U.S. EPA emissions standards and U.S. DOT standards for on-road use in the United States. "

A weak fuel pump is something I have not seen brought up before. But I had a chevy3500 truck with a 6.5 from the factory the lift pump would only put about 4-5 psi to the back of the injection pump at idle, when under full throttle it would drop to 0. The truck still ran fine but I did not...
My 2 cents, all the terms quoted here "off use only", "not road worthy" are correct and true statements in regards to the condition of the Item at the time of the Sale, either from DLA to GovPlanet or from GovPlanet to us. We all should agree that statement is true and we sign papers to that...
Phone number of the transporter is 210-803-0569. I wouldn't worry about the posted 01-13-17 pickup time frame, that is automated figured on the site being open 5 business days a week. Because they are only there on Wednesday you have however many "business days" that they are open to pick...
WIX or nothing when it comes to filters. Several company's "relabel" Wix filters Napa Gold, Carquest Blue label (not red label), and there are more. Also for most applications there a several filter lengths that will fit, the larger (more filtering capacity) is all ways best.

It does seem to be a problem at some storage lots more than others, and I do see where the long EUC waits make it even worse. From what I have heard GovPlanet has been pretty good about financially reimbursing buyers for missing items that were in the photos during the auction but missing at...
I have been involved in several TV reality car/racing related shows. It is 90% scripted and 100% edited into whatever the "movie magic" gurus want it to look like. The produces are very good at entertaining us on our sofas. From personal experience events filmed days apart are edited...
I was at Ft Hood picking up some trailers last week, Your truck is at the LZ Phantom lot. Long and short about getting on the lot and base is it takes time. If you are commercial shipper or look like it :-) you can go straight to the Clark Rd. Commercial entrance with your Gov.Planet Item...
They are doing us a big favor by not just putting everything in the crusher/shredder. It isn't ideal for us who are not close, but at least this stuff is going out into the market, it helps everyone.
