Thinking about buying a US Military surplus Humvee?
https://gear-report.com/what-does-a-surplus-hmmwv-cost-how-to-buy-a-humvee
This video shows the condition our 2nd Hummer was in when we purchased it from the USMC, as well as some highlights of repairs and upgrades required to get it running and roadworthy.
*Correction: video states 12k axles. I believe they are actually 10,300 Lb axels.*
We took a big risk and bought a non-running HMMWV for sale at Govplanet.com
Getting it running was a bigger challenge than we had hoped. But we worked hard to resurrect and upgrade this beast... and saved a TON of money in the process.
More info on the Battlewagon 2.0 can be found on our project overview page:
