Is the M46 shop truck based on the deuce or the 5-ton?

Okay, this is a dumb question, but: When did the military start putting paintball ranges on the bases? And what type of vehicles at your base are used there? I guess paintball is replacing the real rifle ranges....

Wow, that wrecker buyer got a steal of a deal on that one. Under $10K for a wrecker just outta rebuild and looking that good?

Not a M172 series, the gooseneck portion of the trailer is much too high to be the M172 or M172A1. I looked in David Doyle's book and I didn't see anything resembling the above....

I know it's not a gun turret, I'm just not good with terminology sometimes. :)

Wow there's some cool stuff there! Like that M577 Command track, and the M60 as well....

Radcliff is also the home of U.S. Cavalry, a fine but expensive source for military spec equipment and uniforms. Come to think of it, if I remember back from my days that haunted the area, there are a lot of surplus stores, gun shops, pawn shops with surplus gear, thrift stores, etc. around...

RE: New paint and a visit with the highway patrol... Got any close up pictures on the paint job? Just curious how it looks....

Oh, PLEASEcut off that sick looking gun turret and get an M66 ring mount! It would be a great looking truck without that monstrosity!

RE: More pictures. 1968 Good pics, reminds me of slide show nite last time my dad dragged out the Kodak slide projector to show off his Vietnam and Thailand pics from 1963-1967. He was 12 Bravo in SE Asia for those years, helped build a lot of the roads that were used throughout the war. I...

That a nice truck, and BIG! The M54s always looked good to me, too bad they burn fuel like its going out of style, too rich for my wallet.

RE: Re: RE: International MRAP Yup - sorry folks. Under the current regs, if they get surplused, any armor is to be cut up for scrap. It is a cool truck though. Hopefully it will keep some of our sons and daughter safe in the sandbox.

RE: wow I thought the Chieftains were well liked? They served for quite some time in the Brit Army. It's not that I don't trust your judgement, tankie88, it's just that your that first person/source I have heard speak ill of the tank. The replacement, the Challenger 1, was a failure, I know...

I gotta good laugh at the original paint job. Baby Barf camo!

Okay, since I am about to join the ranks of deuce owners, there is some terminology that I have yet to understand. Please define the following for me since I am new to big trucks and am learning. Thanks, Top Loader Sprag Torque Rod

Chieftain right? Those are great tanks for the money - place in Texas is selling 3 of them for $45,000 apiece in running condition restored. If I win the lottery, you know what I'll be getting! That's right - ALL THREE.

If indeed it was a M125, that would be a shame. Not too many of those beasts around....

I think David Doyle could help out here.....

Glad to be of assistance looking at the M36A2 for you Ziggy! Glad to hear you got it. That looks like a great motor pool you got going there!

Hey a free trailer! Nothing shabby about that!
