(2024) Troop Seating and Junk Removal on Military Truck (LMTV/FMTV)

Thanks for the information. It’s in Honolulu and they want $6k to get it to Long Island. Bought it for $2500 though so still not sure if it worth it to ship for that much.

This is the way i see it, I paid $18100 for mine, and the going rate for these trucks on gov planet is usually 10-20k. If you can deal with the hassle of shipping and don't have a specific timeline, I say do it. That would put your total to be $8500 and is significantly lower that buying an lmtv somewhere that is main land U.S. As long as the truck is in decent shape and is close to becoming in working condition, i would try it.

So I just won a bid for the same truck on gov planet. Just curious who you used for transport from California. I’m in Texas and actually didn’t think I would win the bid so I was not prepared.

Congrats! I used the veritread transportation that is on the gov planet site. I was able to find someone to transport it from California to Washington state. It was about $2800. It also depends on if the truck starts. I had to hire a rotator/wrecker 2k each way to load the military truck then off load since the steering in mine didn't work.

Thanks for the advise I’m looking to shipping rates now since I have to keep it. Your rig is looking good and great videos your putting out I like watching the progress. thanks for the help.
