    Humvee coupula

    Please do what you can to take measurements and post them. (I am under the impression it will fit on all the LWS style mounts).

    What have you done to your HEMTT/PLS/MK48 this week

    Truck is looking great, I will just have cry in the corner, mine is still in Govplanet/EUC Jail with no release date in sight. (we purchased our trucks with in 20mins of each other)

    Issues with SF-97

    It is so strange on how some things get flagged... Do you know how many M109a3's left from those sales/lot, and are in the hands of there new owners months ago? There were over 25 when they were sold and last time I was there only 4 or 5 were still on the lot (including yours). Yes, years...

    Issues with SF-97

    That would be a reasonable explanation for my situation..... What I had understood is that my EUC had not been looked at by TSC and it was just waiting,in line,in order to be looked at. Not that it may/has been looked at but has not been approved yet. I completely understand that GovPlanet...

    Issues with SF-97

    I am not trying to poke the bear, but I think this is the biggest question that most of us are asking. How are EUC's submitted at these times (3/30) being looked at much less being approved before EUC's being submitted a month earlier? We keep being told first come first serve, but it does...

    Issues with SF-97

    Well no luck for me, submitted on 2-5-16. I received a courtesy phone call today reminding me of some other upcoming auctions so I requested an EUC update. I did get a phone call back and was told the EUC was currently 55th in line and to expect 3-4 more weeks... How can these be processed...

    FEMTT style global explorer

    My opinion is to start with a M939a2 chassis, the total length of your final project will help you pick what truck to start with M931, M923, M927/M934. Do you need or want OEM hydraulic winch or an electric winch. The m939a2s have an 8.3 Turbocharged Cummins engine, automatic transmission and...

    Govplanet Sales Tax

    I understand what IronPlanet/GOVPlanet is doing. The bean counters want to make sure they collect all the taxes from the customer so that at the end of the day they don't have to pay out of there pockets for anything they may of missed. IF you purchase a piece of equipment (truck/Generator)...

    What have you done to your HEMTT/PLS/MK48 this week

    I also got some of the same push back on going to look over mine from the site manager, But I was there to pick up a trailer anyways and I took a "Does not Start" truck to "Runs and Drives" truck with half a tank of fuel in about 45mins. Judging by current auction prices look like I tripled the...

    Govplanet Sales Tax

    I will give my opinion on sales tax.. again opinion.. Govplanet does not charge sales tax correctly based on how my state charges.. Sales tax should be paid in the county where the new owner resides when a title is being issued. So what I get when I go down to the Tax office they will charge...
