Interesting thread! I've thought about putting some sort of a stereo in my 5 ton once I get one. Not a subwoofer type guy but I'm more of the quadraphonic sound type I guess.

Agreed, great looking truck! Picking your daughter up from school huh...I bet that was the center of attention in the parking lot! :lol:

Yeah, the Fairbanks winters are going to suck regardless LOL. Some improvements would definitely be necessary if I were to embark on such a crazy venture. I've read plenty of stories high school and college students daily driving Deuces and 5 tons but never an M37, which is why I...

Good to know about the completely manual steering, though I think I could live with that. It's what creature comforts you're willing to live without I suppose.

OK, maybe I should have worded my original post better: It looked like I might have the 200 mile round trip every weekend, but since then that didn't happen (in a way, I'm thankful!). So at this point it would probably me more around-town-ish driving, since I think I want to get some housing...

OK, so here's the deal/backstory: -I've been infected with the "Green Iron Disease" for about 20-ish months now. You know how that goes, it can strike at any time without warning and the incubation period is extremely short! -In December of 2014 I got "hooked" and promptly had a brilliant...

Drivebymashing, does this mean you're now planning on getting one?

I was 17 when I joined, 18 now. Another poll idea: (Maybe this has been covered already but in case it hasn't): How old were you when you acquired your first MV? I know a member here who got his M923A1 as a 14 year old high school freshman. (Still has it 5 years later).

Good luck, pull the proverbial trigger on the 5 ton and post pics and "recovery" stories!

Really? I say it looks just fine!

Definitely a great deal for 3900! I say pull the trigger! :driver:

Looks great! New daily driver?

Better than any U haul van! Truck looks great too! When I get mine I have every intention of helping others out too.

LOL are you somehow connected with them? It's funny, unless they moved again I remember it being the old Carl's Jr. I only picked up on the fact Atascadero had said nickname within the last year! (sorry for the off topic digression)

Looks good! Hopefully I'll see it in person this winter sometime...

Is there any way to leave the spare tire in place but still have the bed dump? (I can see where having a full load of gravel could be an issue). Also what about just straight piping with the 8" stacks? How much of a performance boost do you really notice, is your fuel turned up too? I like...

Go for it! I almost bought one a few months ago, it would have been my first vehicle, no joke!

I like this conversion! I might consider doing something similar once I get a 5 ton.

Looks sharp! Does this mean the CTIS is totally gone now?

I always love hearing people are daily driving their M939s. I plan on daily driving mine once I get one!
