Tires
Are the front and rear tires the same size?
The rears look bigger to me.

Is that the one that sold at Mc Dill recently? I don't remember if it needed an EUC but if it did that happened fast. Nice work/looks great.

The front has new Goodyears, the rears are Michelin's. I believe they are the same size, but have not checked the sizes.

Yes, this was from Macdill. GL has gotten alot better with the EUCs lately. It took 10 days this time.
Thanks Vinny, I will look into the Rally. I have never been to one but would love to take part!

I heard Global X Vehicles has the ratio carriers to take it to 70MPH. They have changed out several of them to 70 MPH You ought to give them a call if you want to get it faster or lower revs/better eco
One sold on Feb 20th for $8100 + fees and it had a blown up engine too.

Seeing a few of these for sale here and there ( 10-12k$+ ). I imagine they are probably worth every penny of that? Can someone in this Forum give me/us a quick pro & con on the M1078. I would really appreciate it! Getting through California DMV would be quite the chore I am sure!? In research mode now... Respectfully, DMLII sends

They're newer but the electricals are like a CUCV, if you get a good one then great if you get one with bad electricals, you can spend a mint chasing gremlins.
As the fieldings of the uparmoreds go around the country, all the soft skins will get sold. Barstow will probably have some coming in this year or early next. Figure next year and the following, these will be coming out like the 900 series are now.

I was visiting a national guard motorpool a while back. While I was talking trucks with an old sarge, he said he'd much rather have the 44,809,&939 trucks back as their mission readiness was 2x what the fmtv readiness is. I dont know if that helps but it engrained itself into my mind. The positive from my own observation is theyre more comfortable to ride, so much quiter, and... driver visibility is exponentially better due to the cabover design. With that stated, know that the cab crew will always be the first ones to the scene of the wreck!
