I never get enough pictures. But here are a few I took. Some of the attendees put a lot of time in setting up their living history displays. Clark Airborne dozer. Several 1/4 tons in the barn M718 Ambulance UH-1 Huey taking off A friend, his son, and myself going for a ride in a M5...

My M151 and Mule got a bath waiting to head up this morning. Hope it stops raining before I unload.

That certainly has to make you feel good about buying the right truck. Congratulations on the easy journey.

He really did. I bought it from his widow- so unfortunately didn't get to meet him or hear any stories. But did find this build thread he posted here- Mule Hauler I'd like to get a set of M101 side rails and canopy to see if they do in fact fit.

It's a M116 frame, and the previous owner built sides and tailgate to look like a M101, but it's wider. He specifically built it to carry a M274 mule. Also cut the inside of the fenders out to gain width. (Mule is 48" wide).

I used my 3/4 ton for cleaning up some Cherry in the back yard. And it struck me why I like mil vehicles so much. I did not serve, but have always loved military trucks, jeeps, and trailers. I grew up in the 80s playing with GI Joe. Now I’m in my 40s and I get to play with full sized toys.

There will be a UH-1 Huey at this event. Rides available!

Some auctioneers are so lazy. I'm sure it's a coincidence that this auction with a lot of MIL vehicles is the same weekend as a local Rally, but it's no coincidence that other than one ad in the MVPA magazine, and a very poorly designed website with limited pictures, there is nothing out there...

Saw this auction advertised in the MVPA magazine. Very poorly put together website, but at least it does have enough pictures to generate interest. I haven't seen it shared on any of the military vehicle forums I'm on- I hesitate to share it here, because it could cause someone to pay more...

I didn't drive my MV to the museum, but it was a road trip for the purpose of looking at MVs, so that's why I'm putting this post in this forum. I only found out about the museum about a month ago from a friend that had been. It's only opened on Friday and Saturday, and I planned my arrival...

Last night's Mule project was cutting a "horse stall mat" to fit the deck. Not a difficult job, and turned out pretty well for an ugly mat. I took the Mule to a gun range in Spencer, TN a couple of weeks ago to assist in clearing some trails that will be used for a run and gun competition...

Thanks for sharing your experience. Most of the vets I've talked with when they see my M151 just tell me "I put a lot of miles on the 151."

Keep the pictures coming!

I appreciate what you do to save the M151! Have a fun trip.

I volunteered to help out cleaning some trails for an upcoming shooting competition to benefit the Special Forces Association, Chapter 38. The Mule was a hit, as well as very useful to transport chain saws, fuel, etc deep into the woods.

It's worth a few hour drive. Last year there were probably 25 or so vehicles, including a M5 Stuart that was giving rides around the fairgrounds. And that was just the first year of the event.

I've only owned the M274 Mule I submitted for MV of the month for 3 weeks. I saw it advertised on Steel Soldiers almost 2 months ago- reached out to the seller, and didn't hear back for a few weeks. I was disappointed, convinced it had already sold, but then received a phone call from...

I bought an adapter from Erik's military surplus, along with a bracket, and attached it to my M116 frame. LED lights were already on the trailer and they work great with my pick up truck. Pulled it 90 miles to the farm and 90 miles back loaded with a m274 Mule and the trailer performed great...

I need to find cooler friends! Got any more pics of it?

Well, not really neglected. It's been stored inside for about 18 of the 19 years I've owned it. I've put about 8K miles on it in those years. Drove it quite a bit for the first year or two after I got it, but then had two kids- and only got the 151 out on sunny days to drive in the...
