The most recent one sold at GL in OKC was around $32k before fees and taxes (pic below). Other ones have sold for $15K or so. I expect the one up now might do good to reach that mark.
Here is a pic with the outer tires removed to keep within limits and a deuce being towed behind for a place to carry the extra tires! That deuce is on 11R20 tires so it looks a little bigger than stock.
Here are some pics from driving the M911/M747 combo. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/5-ton-up/18249-m911-m747-outing.html I also have a video on youtube. YouTube - Oshkosh M911 M747 HET Military Truck Drive By
In the last few years, 50 or so have been sold through GL. Most of them get snatched...
Trailer looks to be M1076 PLST prototype. A good find, indeed. Cool trailer, but the production ones weigh about 15,000#. You need a big truck to pull it. I might be interested in it if the price is cheap.
I can answer "Yes" to question # 1. (Sort of, anyway) I snapped a M52A2 front axle in half, housing and all. Sheared it right open and broke the axle shaft. I had pics on here a couple of years ago when I did it. It left a mark on my forehead!
My inventory is a little low right now, but usually try to carry some 15.5R20 and 16R20 tires. The 15.5s are a perfect size for the deuce. $100-$300 depending on condition.
Okay, that makes sense. "Due to the urgency of the MRAP..." looks like they have given special approval and derated the weight limit to increase speed rating. Weight is not going to be an issue for you anyway! I would be interested to see what it says on the sidewall though. Probably 12,300#...
Those are going to look really cool on your deuce! I was looking into some 14R20s in the XZL pattern (see pic), but the freight made it cost prohibitive. The spec sheet I have on the 395/85R20 XZL shows max speed of 55 mph for 395s, 14.00s, and 16.00s. Max speed on 11.00R20s is 68 mph. Maybe...
The group that purchased the big lot at Camp Shelby was thought to be Warrior Patriot Resources, an alleged non-profit group. It might have also been their profit driven affiliate named Claims Reporting LLC. Either way, they got a ton of vehicles and intended to fix them up for resale. It seemed...
