I've seen pics of the label on the A3's engine that says, "8500 feet max". What happens over that altitude? What if they are run regularly below, but close to that?
Does the A2 multi-fuel have altitude restrictions? Is there an adjustment?
A truck description listed on a auction site states: "Combat starter. Did not start."
Does this mean they fought the starter and it wouldn't comply? Or is it a special starter that only works under combat conditions?;-)
1993 M35A3 C 6X6 2.5 TON CAT TURBO DIESEL ALLISON AUTO :eBay Motors (item 140356247019 end time Nov-06-09 08:16:21 PST)
Will they even let the buyer on the base? Sounds like the seller won the A3, but is going to re-sell the truck wihtout even picking it up from the base himself...
Was looking at some A3's on GL. The winch trucks have a square tank behind the driver side of the bumper. Are the winches hydraulic? Or what is tank for?
Seems like the "retail" price is starting to drop a bit. See more and more on GL.
How low can they go? Hopefully they get down closer to the M35A2 range. 4 digits price would be nice.
The auto tranny and upgraded brakes would be nice.
More and more being releaed,hopefully the prices drop.
Just looking at the trucks on the reinstated GL site. Seems like 90% say "won't start" or "doesn't run". In the pics they look pretty decent. What's the chances it's something really simple? Do you guys bid on these?
Been reading as much as I can on them. I currently have a Pinz 712 (6x6) that I love. I've always loved the M35's, though. My thinking is I can sell the Pinz, buy a M35 and use the difference to pay off some bills and still have a toy.
I am concerned about the overall cost of ownership...
