This week’s eBay Pick of the Week is a 1972 AM General M818 military truck. If you are wondering why we’d choose such a thing, know that is is packing 855ci of Cummins power, all the wheel drive, it rolls on 54-inch tires, and looks as though it could be used to take over a small country.
It would be killer to take to the mud bogs or a truck pull to let it exercise some. The ad has an awesome YouTube vide embedded into it that shows the driver putting it though some paces so potential buyers can see for themselves what the truck is like. It’s embedded below.
This truck is not going to take you anywhere fast, but it is capable of taking you anywhere. The best news is that is has lived on a steady diet of maintenance from Uncle Sam and was completely rebuilt during Desert Shield I in the early 1990s.
