Types of United States Military Vehicles for Sale
·
High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle
◦
Also known as Hum Vee, these military surplus vehicles are
usually labelled as HMMWV. They have been
manufactured by AM General since early 1980's and continue to
strive in military use today. The model even broke the mold
and became a commercial civilian vehicle called a
Hummer. There are
several different versions of the Hummers but they are not
military use vehicles. The HMMWV used today sells
for $65,000 unarmored and $140,000 armored. They run on an eight-cylinder
diesel engine that is either 6.2 or 6.5
Liter. Top
speeds do not reach more than 65 miles per
hour. Most
HMMWV's are used as cargo carriers, automatic weapon
platforms, and ambulances. Since these vehicles
are Department of Transportation certified used ones can
be sold to civilians in auctions or through dealers who
have purchased them. They are dumbed down
versions without weapon use or connection, but will sell
for around $20,000. A quick search engine
search will provide several options.

Pinzgauer
◦
Originating in Surrey, England, but made by an Austrian company
called Steyr-Daimler-Puch, the Pinzgauer is a self-propelled
all wheel drive vehicle from the 1960's. This vehicle is still being
used by the US Military and the United Kingdom with a few
changes. The new
changes are called the second generation Pinzgauer. The changes
allow it to climb down a 360 millimeter wall, take on a 100%
slope until tires give, handle a 43.5 degree side slope, and
reach at least 70 miles per hour. It has the ability to be
either four-wheel drive or six-wheel drive and usually has an
inline five or six-cylinder diesel engine. Many in the United Kingdom
run on a petrol/gasoline engine. The vehicle is named after
Pinzgauer breed of horse from Austria. If you were to find military
vehicles for sale like these, plan on spending around $22,000
or more for it.

Willys
◦
Made by a company called Willys-Overland Company in the late
1930's, the Willys became the go to vehicle for the US
Army. In fact,
Willys made a special model called a Willys MB US Army Jeep
Truck just for them. This model was only
manufactured between 1941 and 1945 during World War II, they
are the iconic Jeep seen in advertisements and on television
shows like M.A.S.H. This model evolved into
the Jeep Company made CJ Jeeps that you will see up until the
1980's. The
Germany army favored this model of Jeep as well and came out
with their own version name Kubelwagen by
Volkswagen. Other
similar models like the Willys M38, M170, and the M606 followed
and were used in military situations, but none were as
successful as the Willys MB Army Jeep. If you are looking for
military vehicles like these for sale, you could spend anywhere
from a couple thousand to $20,000 and possibly
more. All of
this would depend on quality, the year it was made, and
if the original parts were working and in excellent
shape.
