    Holy Cow Batman.... GL HMMWVS

    In a few decades when they are rarer than hens teeth you might think differently. With the current sale there will be less than 0.016% of them ever made in private ownership... And many of those will be getting modified from original condition... so the original ones will be a great investment...

    Holy Cow Batman.... GL HMMWVS

    Okay I agree with Arabic as described; looking at the data plate you can clearly tell where 4x4 is.

    Holy Cow Batman.... GL HMMWVS

    Either way I can't read any of it. Ironically whoever it was meant for probably can't read it either. Kinda like the navigation system in my wife's Korean built car... even in english I can't understand the girl enough to find my way out of a paper sack... I just mute her and watch the map.

    Look at the "start" section on the switch. Ya YI, none of it connected together................? Using a translator for start it doesn't match either: Top is Hebrew, bottom Arabic. התחל بدء تشغيل

    Holy Cow Batman.... GL HMMWVS

    Actually looking at comparisons I think the description is wrong and it is in fact Hebrew. It would not be the first time that a GL description was wrong. Which would mean these trucks were slated for Israel. See the examples: 2nd is Hebrew text, 3rd is Arabic text. Might not be either...

    Holy Cow Batman.... GL HMMWVS

    Keep us posted on how they are side by side... it would be interesting to know much more guts the turbo has. What do you plan to do about the shelter weight or did you buy a shelter too? As is they are not balanced to drive without the shelter in place. They can be driven short distances at low...

    Holy Cow Batman.... GL HMMWVS

    They could only be bought by US Citizens located within the USA per the description. Perhaps BAE ran into issues with exportation and that is why they were still state side? If they were exportable I would think that BAE would have exported them as they could likely get more for them from a...

    Holy Cow Batman.... GL HMMWVS

    The descriptions all stated xx km on engine. I took that to mean that they were overhauls given that they were 7 years old. They all stated "for off road use" and that a document would be attached to invoice. (User agreement).

    Holy Cow Batman.... GL HMMWVS

    Who else was watching the overhauled HMMWVs that GL had listed? I can't understand who would pay that kind of money for one. These are still no title, off road use trucks. Unless another defense contractor bought them for export? Even then did they leave any room for profit margin? After taxes...
