    Westbound trip planned for 24th to 30th-ish

    http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?46227-M939-A1-A2-ABS-vs-Non-ABS-Trucks Most of us consider ABS in our normal vehicles as being an attempt to compensate for lack of skill in the average driver. And while Sally Soccermom may need it in order to safely operate her minivan, we certainly...

    Westbound trip planned for 24th to 30th-ish

    Don't push the driving. Seriously. What is more or less safe in a pickup truck is a very bad idea in an unknown 5ton. Falling asleep at the wheel is a bad idea in anything. But you want to be alert and fresh enough that you'll notice and immediately react properly to things that could go...

    939 EUC's ? Months after auction???

    But you're missing the 2ndary effect. If I can get a 5ton in 2 years, or a deuce at private sale now , I may opt for the deuce. So yes, it should bump up deuce sales. Deuce sales are primarily a private market at this point anyway. ... It's also going g to effect the hmmwv private market...

    939 EUC's ? Months after auction???

    My best guess says 40%, unless they can process EUCs faster than previous experience suggests.

    939 EUC's ? Months after auction???

    DLA does not assign demil codes based on private company mergers. *unrelated* GP and GL have absolutely no control over and no influence on when gets an EUC requirement, and what does not. I'm certain they'd rather have no EUC on anything. The EUC does not shield them from any liability, and...

    939 EUC's ? Months after auction???

    This is much panic about *nothing*. What you have received is a toothless request for information. If you take no action, there will be no action taken against you. Nobody will serve you with a summons. No jackbooted thugs will crash through your door at 0230. Look at the HEMTT. They sent...

    939 EUC's ? Months after auction???

    Melodrama aside, here's what I see happening on this- They're required to send a request for an EUC for all trucks previously sold, and to require an EUC as a condition of future sales. They don't really expect 100% compliance for the trucks already out there. You will have to do an EUC for...

    looking for M105 trailer in texas

    I have some too. We can probably talk dwnorton into a Houston delivery, or I can manage Dickens. I have one USMC marked. Pristine condition. $1000. This is the one you want to take the car shows. Complete with bows /racks/cover. I've got another, also USMC marked. Not as nice, but needs...

    Fuel consumption of a M934 Am General and a Winnebago (haha)

    My driving is typically various trucks a couple of thousand miles each and then handing them off, so I don't have the exposure to replacing parts. Figure fuel at $0.50/mile. If you put serious miles on one, a modern truck is going to be cheaper to maintain.... (otherwise you'd see more MVs...

    M934a2 sluggish low rpm performance

    If you didn't experience a change after the first lap, this is what I'd say: This is typical impression when someone used to an NH250 goes to an 8.3. The NH250 feels like way more power right off the line and shifts better. The 8.3 feels like it has a profoundly delayed stall converter in...
