    Just a bit excited

    I never served but as a civilian enthusiast I'd have to say they are probably one of my favorite vehicles of all time. Something about em.

    Good luck, I bet you can't wait to be in one again! What reignited your interest in buying one?

    Just a bit excited

    Welcome! I vividly recall my first time getting to see/climb around on/ride in one of these. You will be hooked even more than you already are. When was the last time you sat in/rode in/saw one?

    Hello Everyone

    The one I may still acquire for all I know is an '83. She has a camp top and a few other things, but other parts of her are solid green. An early one. She's bone stock sans a couple upgrades and even has the radio mount in the cab. She came from a Yakima, WA NG unit.

    Hello Everyone

    I feel ya on the reading up on them for years straight first! Took me about 3 years of it before I took the plunge on mine. I had several failed attempts at M35A2s and M939s where I'd either get outbid, someone would snap up a private sale ahead of me, or I couldn't make funds flow quickly...

    finally got one, it is a M939A2 S.W. Louisiana

    Welcome! That's a good looking truck! M923A2s are about as fun a vehicle as you can get!

    Hello Everyone

    Darn right they can. There is something about these trucks, they have thoughts and feelings too it seems!

    Hello Everyone

    She is indeed awfully long and awkward, but she's a rare oddball and was crying out to be saved, so I practically bankrupted myself (student budget) to buy her. Re: yours and sitting, that sounds about right! I know someone's tear-jerking (in a good way!) story of rescuing an M925A2 from...

    Hello Everyone

    Thanks! I know of one near me, and I do own an M928A1 I need to fix up. What are your plans for this big girl you acquired?

    Newbie in Missouri

    Welcome! I felt the same way, despite being mechanically inept I wanted a Deuce or a 5 ton because they are simple and durable!
  18. 71DeuceAK

    Hello Everyone

    Welcome! She's an awful good looking truck, I'm looking at one just like her near me, just need to come up with the cash. I'd frankly just make her my daily driver.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    She's awful pretty.

    Steel Soldiers MV of the month 2019 - April VOTE HERE!

    Story behind this M928A1: I got into MVs several years ago. Although I hadn't had much in-person experience, I was nevertheless somewhat familiar with them. A friend (Who isn't online at all) who had about a dozen Deuces and 5 tons hired me last July to house-sit for him and do some other...
