We can sit back and hope they quit this nonsense about not licensing former military vehicles or we can do something about it. Victory usually doesn't go to the one that sits back. I want to see what they are basing their denials of licensing on. Right now it looks to me like the basis is...

We must be getting some traction somewhere on this topic, as I got a call from a staffer in the Governor's office on the way home today. Is anyone working on legislation for WA around this topic of Historic Military Vehicles? Their concern was that something along this topic may come up in the...

Don't know where you are located, but I have access to a 5th wheel plate you could borrow and flop on it and call it a tractor. I for one am getting tired of all these can't do people. I am looking for people that can make things work.

If it already has a license, you should be in good shape, but if you don't, it may be a hassle. I have talked with a couple of my state representatives and floated the idea of adding an Historical Military Vehicle section. They weren't opposed. Was talking with another one of the guys and he...

I did get registration started as an Off Road Vehicle. I asked the lady, how many 21,000 pound off road vehicles they register. It isn't her fault, she is following the rules on what they are telling her. It is interesting about what they started in September as I applied before that.

I was not successful with my June re-inspection of the 1991 M923A2. It did get inspected and the inspector wrote down Serial number, even though the data plate says Identification number, then he put a note that there was no VIN. He also said that it did not meet the FMVSS and has no tag in...

Have often thought that should be the law on property tax in this state as well. Most of us probably don't go out to find another vehicle at the highest possible price we can pay. We are looking for what we perceive to be a deal and if we find it, we buy it.

Good job. Most of the time, being nice goes a long way.

Just did a search for M211's for sale. There are several out there. You didn't say what you paid, but I saw trucks from 800 to 1500 in a very quick search. I would think you could print a few of those out to show to them to establish a price point.

They would probably be fine with that. I got a slip this time as I didn't want to take any chances. my truck weights 21,500 and they told me they would have to register it at 34,000. Not sure why I couldn't have gone at 24,000. A lot of it is up to the interpretation of the person that is...

They do require a scale weight. At least with a GP Bill of sale and SF97 you shouldn't have any problem, unless is says for off road use only. if it says that, find a different way. If it is a clean SF 97 you should walk in pay your money and walk out with a license. My problem is on an...

Am taking my second try for an M923A2. First time a year ago, was told that we don't register Military trucks in WA. this will be for a title in doubt, due to the man passing away before he could start the process and his estate not being about to find the bill of sale and SF 97. Wish me...

The VIN is probably a matter of definition as you do have a serial number on the data plate. Look on WSP website, FAQ's. First question is about VIN numbers, where it says that a VIN is a unique Serial number. Be patient and read the rules, you will prevail.

What seems to be the issue? I had a problem with an M923, but I didn't have a piece of paper from the auditors office when I went, so the inspector was in a snit.

Depending on which plates he got, that is not a yearly fee. It is probably the initial license with title transfer, plate, possibly sales tax, and a Gross Vehicle Weight fee. Once you can get collector plates, there are no more fees.
