    Uparmor International

    they dragged it in the south gate before it caught fire. i dunno how it finally lit up, maybe the brakes got too hot and that ignited it. the fire depo did finally come out after it was already ablaze. when were you there?

    939 series trucks have the 250 cummins in them coupled to a allison 5 speed. they do ok. but just like everything else, they have limits. pulling im guessing 30000 lbs. did somethin to it, didnt really kill it but it ran like poop later on. it was our fastest truck too

    Bought a M915A1 today

    should be a 16 speed kitty tranny, as the 920 is basicly the same truck. i dont know though the military does weird things. drove a 920 a few with a scraper on it. having driven truck before joining the Army, i found it ackward to shift but fun do drive once you get used to it
