Depends on the state.
I brought my SF97 to the WI DMV and had no problems registering it as a "on road" Historic Military Vehicle even though all paperwork stated "off road use only". I just needed to provide color photos of all four sides of the vehicle, color photos of the interior, and a...
I don't think it's IP/GP creating the rumor that trucks are going to be ending soon. I hear that rumor here and from people who are trying to sell their IP $8,500 M998 for $25,000 as soon as they get it home.
That and a few of the guys who jacked up the price of their 5-tons they were selling...
I don't think there is any good documentation of what colors they are painted at the factory.
Evidence from members who served in motor pools shows that all Humvees came Woodland camo from the factory up until the early 00's. Then once the War on Terror started heating up, they came in tan or...
Touched up some paint that was damaged and replaced all outside lights with the LED version. Should be much more noticeable at night.

Converted my troop carrier to a four door setup with 3 point seat belts all around. I still need the cargo cover, but am looking for a three color woodland one.
At one point mine had the three point seat belt conversion done since the reinforcement panels were already installed under the...
Spent the day there and brought up my Humvee to show.
Picked up some parts from a member here and the Humvee was a hit with everyone who walked by.

I'll be up there on Saturday looking for parts.
Looking for:
LED rear tail lights in Green with buckets
LED front head lights for my HMMWV
LED front turn signals - in green
HMMWV dash lights
Pins for HMMWV brush guard - the pins you take out to lower the brush guard, not the lower pins.
Also...
Put it on eBay for no reserve, starting price $1 and local pickup only.
I've done that plenty of times with large items and have always been happy with the results.
Right now Iron Planet shows 100 HMMWV's for sale.
Two and 4 door, some with X doors and most without. Just spot checking, the quality seems to be typical what they have sold in the past. Some were going to need work, others looked nice.
I'm almost positive that the "Humvee sales ending...
I just ran into this question also. My GM dealer stated that Dexron III and Dexron II are interchangeable. He also stated that Dexron VI is way more expensive and does not offer any extra benefits.
I topped off my transfer case with III (unknown what was in it) and replaced my transmission...
I normally go every year, but this is the first year I'll be bringing a vehicle. Going to drive up my M998 from Lake Geneva up to my parents place in Green Bay.
Anyone else heading up 43 or 41? I'd love to drive together.
Are there any carriers that mount to the stock non-airlift rear? Everything I've found needs an airlift bumper and I just don't like the way they look.
Where in WI are you?
I've had my M998A1 for a few weeks now and am always looking for other owners for car shows and to bounce ideas off of. I'm down near Lake Geneva and there aren't too many HMMWV's down here.
Thanks for the tips. Looks like the pins that hold the grille up are missing. The straps on the hood came like that. It's nice and easy to lower the hood since the grille and hood operate as one piece.
