Hi guys,
I'm looking into purchasing a HMMMV on Gov Planet and all I see is "OFF ROAD USE ONLY". Then I've talked to a few guys locally. No One has the definitive answer. IF I BUY A HMMMV FROM GOV PLANET.... Can I register it and drive it on the street or not? Is there a definitive answer? I Know this is old news to most of you but I just started looking into a HMMMV purchase from GOV PLANET> Thanks for any help on this issue.

​From the Forum rules and the Titling sticky in the HMMWV Forum:



With the new sales of HMMWVs from GovPlanet and Govliquidation many people are asking on how to title them for on-road use.

The government is allowing these trucks to be sold by the auction sites but with the restriction that they are for OFF-ROAD use only and WILL NOT be titled for on-road use. This a DoD regulation/restriction and is not controlled by the auction sites or individual State DMVs

Because of this restriction this site will not allow any discussion on how to "break" this rule and title the Humvee for on road use.

I sure would hate for the Goverment to stop all sales because of someone trying to get around this restriction.

If you start a thread, ask questions or discuss how to circumvent this rule you may be banned from this site.

This is not open to debate.

Just as a reminder, the DLA has not changed their stance of the "off-road-use only" restriction. Here is a blurb from their website:

"Humvee/HMMWV In November 2014
DLA Disposition Services began releasing excess military Humvee cargo and troop carriers with model numbers M998, M998A1, M1038 and M1038A1 to all eligible reutilization, transfer and donation (RTD) recipients. These are early model "soft side" unarmored vehicles. Participants in the Fire Fighters and law enforcement support programs remain eligible for the items as well. Vehicles not acquired by those special programs or RTD recipients may be sold to the public for off road use. They will be offered under a contract for disposal of rolling stock. See www.govplanet.com for additional information."

Until this stance is changed all the BS you hear on the internet is just that, BS.
