    Most every state allows the registration of surplus miltary vehicles and some states like Florida allow vehicle to operated w/o tag in most cases as long as the vehicle has all its military markings.

    I suspect kit vehicles are exempt to most if not all regulations or am I wrong?

    don't get me wrong, I am all for having one (I say this while slowly stripping my h1 to be more bare-bones). I was spooked by several people I know who had issues registering humvees at dmv's, AMG's policy of dealerships not working on them as well as this letter that surfaced around the time I was looking:

    There was a thread on this a while back. Might have come in handy. I think it was titled 'what would you have done'

    true, but 6.5 or 6.2 will enter mechanic shop once or twice in its life for injection pump change, but 6.7. 6.6.6.0 and the rest of the tiger diesels will let u on the road dead .

    when u build a military truck speed is secondary . reliability and simplicity of the motor is more important. only Americans think that diesel must have 800 lb torque and 6 mpg, ppl cross continents with 2.0 diesel land rover , how many duramax or dodge or ford >>>> STRONG <<<< diesels do u know that did that?

    I think thats AMG stopping HMMWV's at the Form 97 level, and covering their *** in liability.

    I'm sure AMG won't be concerned about HUMVEE-C trucks. We'll know more next week during the THCI event in Colorado/Utah.
