    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    I took the green machine to the truck pull last night. Even being a little sick it pulled about 40,000lbs 216 ft. I pulled in 4L and held it back in first. The only other street diesel was an old dodge with a 5.9 Cummins turbo diesel, making a supposed 800+ ftlbs of torque, and he only pulled...

    The m1008 was originally: the green monster. People started calling it green machine. So that stuck

    Why did the army pick GM? With picture

    My dad has bought a 2015 Chevy 3500 crew cab 4x4 flat bed diesel. In 30 years I will post side by side pics of the green machine (my m1008 ) and his truck. I bet there isn't much left of his.

    Why are CUCV prices so much higher that Civi Chevs

    One reason that cucvs can cost more is the "cool" factor. I see plenty of cucvs for sale with crazy ads about how the "cool" factor, and how they are the best thing for the next ice age, or apocalypse

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    Thanks for the info on the straps, when I replaced my fuel tank the other day, I cleaned everything with a wire wheel and sand paper, then used under coating on everything. I haven't ordered the correct sock yet, I had to modify one for a gasser, it had the same kind of filter with just some...

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    I changed the fuel filter again. I figured since that there was trash inside my filter sock in the tank, it was in the filter on the firewall. I was surprised that Napa had the filter. Also priming the fuel System is a breeze now. Since I have a fuel bulb in the line where it comes out of the...

    how hard do you drive it

    I don't care to do it again. But running 60 doesn't bother me as much now. I can say at 70 it is kinda loud. Can I ask how you are getting your numbers? Thanks

    how hard do you drive it

    Thanks I'm running a 285-75-r16. I had just replaced most of the fuel System, and was seeing how it was running. I don't know if I can hold 70, because I more or less kissed it. I was shocked that the speedo went that high. When I saw 70 on the speedo and 3k on the tiny tach, that little voice...

    how hard do you drive it

    I drove the green machine the other day to 70 mph on the speedo. The rpm never got over 3k.
