Is this the going rate for the military trucks?

Appears kind of high but is this what they go for? The auction is not done but you have to add at least 10% over the bidding price.

Re: Is this the going rate for the military trucks?

these 73-91 trucks starts to get more and more expensive because they gain in popularity that means people can sell them for more.

A tired warrior of the 1980s in a world of low profile tires, front wheel drive, and plastic bumpers, where people stay in their houses until snowplows move the offending substance from their paths, too helpless to travel without AAA and chains and salt, clearing their windows with longhandled brushes while gently stepping around in the snow trying to stay nice and dry.

I have bought a truck from there and have watched a lot of the auctions. That is high, however, that truck appears to be in better condition than most that get auctioned. The one I bought was beat to hell.

Re: Is this the going rate for the military trucks?

You also have to remember that you need to apply for a EUC (End Use Certificate), sometimes up to a 90 day wait, $60.00 fee for a SF-97, which is what you need to get a title, and if you didn't preview it beware of all kind of surprises when you actually pick it up, such as bent driveshafts, missing parts, etc. Been down that road many times, can be a real crap shoot. (But I still bid on 'em anyway lol)

Re: Is this the going rate for the military trucks?

They have been averaging 1200-2000 on up depending upon shape and yes that one is pretty primo plus the 28K miles and a pretty ready engine bay. This is probably a runner with minimal work.

These trucks may sit up to a year or more waiting to see if the reutilzation agencys want them first like VA, USDA, Forestry, Parks, then the civil agencies also get a crack like Rural FDs, Police agencies etc.

That is a clean truck.... for GL that may be a high price but check out other military vehicle sellers and even the current GL price for that truck looks good.
