The US is no different than most countries, the taxes and fees is the real concearn not the actual vehicle safety. It is a pay to play system Paperwork+Money=Freedom
In AZ I had to get a level 1 inspection through the local MVD. Mine is an '89, and being it's over the 25 year mark they signed off right away. Being I didn't want to wait in line there (usually a 2+ hour wait,) I took the inspection form, SF-97, & bill of sale to 3rd party titling company. They issued me a title & plates within 30 minutes. AllState Insured it, no questions asked. All that said, MVD required it to be registered as a commercial vehicle & AllState required it to be insured commercially due to it's size/weight.
Cottonwood office. The 3rd Party vendor was Foote Works. Added note, the 3rd party vendor claimed I needed a level 2 inspection being there was only one location on the vehicle for a serial/VIN number. When I took it to DMV in Cottonwood for a level 2 inspection, they said I only needed a level 1 and completed it right there. Took that paperwork to 3rd Party vendor & they finished the rest. It was titled that day.
My SF-97 did say for off-road use only. Cottonwood MVD didn't care. Their stance was that it was up to the owner to make the vehicle street-legal. 3rd party vendor felt the same way. I'm working on making it street legal as we speak. But that wasn't a requirement to get it titled.
I'm also in Ohio and looking to buy a surplus HMMWV. I'm watching a few different auctions coming up. Just so I'm clear I transfer it as an off-road vehicle then fill out the affidavit to make it a pickup truck. Thanks again for the information. I'm looking forward to the fun about to happen.
anyone else in the pathetic joke of a state of CA? I wont jump the gun on one of these until I know it can be done without strangling some dmv workers and possible jail time.
Good work and good thinking on your part. Their is always a way. Kooks can get a government job and keep it, unlike in the world of free enterprise where they need to be the bosses relative or some such to keep the job.
AM GENERAL even says these are not highway legal. These have not been crash tested and do not meet federal motor vehicle safety standards (fvmss). This is why they do not have conforming 17 digit vin numbers . As required for all on Highway vehicles 1981 and newer. Just because you got a license plate and fooled your Dmv employee doesn’t make it legal to drive in the road. Be careful
Very impressed with your ability to video, drive, flap around title papers with all your personal details and make fun of your HWP all at the same time! (it's the ex-cop in me lol).
Let's just say any military vehicle you buy, you dump boat load money in, I have humvee,duece and half, 5 ton, and cucv blazer, I've dumped a bunch money into, this isn't a cheap hobby.
What gets me is 1 you bought it its ur money do what u want with it. 2 the dam police depts have them and run them on the roads also so don't military convoys all the time. 3 if it meets the requirements for road use why not allow them on the road.
I have a HMWWV titled as off road in California. Is there a way to register it for on road in Ohio without having the vehicle physically present? Do you know anyone that can do it for a fee? Appreciate any help.
great info ,nice video my friend ! I was told humvee don't come with VIN NUMBER . do you have to apply for vin or you get that when you get onroad registration ?
They just use the serial number that's on that data plate, my m925 5 tons, m109 duece and half, m1009 cucv blazer m1123 hmmwv they used serial number on data plates for all of them.
Hello, did you have any trouble insuring it? I called Progressive (my insurance) and was told they wont insure anything over 1 ton...The HMMWV tag says 1 1/4 ton. I asked if they will insure an H1 and she said yes. Did you have any trouble with insurance?.
We used veritread and had a great experience. Key tip: don't bid your veritread until you have your EUC cleared. The delivery truck even had a huge American flag and bald eagle on it. #Bonus
Matt, mine is insured through AllState. No issues. Here in AZ, it needed to be titled as a commercial vehicle being it can haul over 1 ton. As such, AllState insured it as a commercial vehicle with full coverage. Total is under $400/yr.
+Joey George for Ohio, this is the affidavit. washingtongov.org/DocumentCenter/View/146 I'm not sure about Idaho law, but if you've gotten to motorcycles you're in the right track. I'd suggest 1.) trying to get the bmv to transfer your Florida title directly into a road legal title. 2.) If they won't, ask them about the process of getting a body code change. Don't take everything they say as gospel!
Joey George Make your own affidavit. The state has their own, but anyone can make their own to suit their needs. If, after 30 days the affidavit goes unchallenged, it stands as truth and becomes law. So my suggestion is to file a freedom from registration affidavit based on over 100 federal cases and the fact that no state ever held the allodial title to your hummvee. Its yours!
Less hassle for a deuce because they weren't sold as off-road only. The deal with the Humvees was that the federal government did not want people to be able to drive them on the road at all so they issued them with off-road only paperwork, but there are many loopholes and they differ state by state
I didn't and don't know. In fact buying and fixing military Humvees is not that great as far as making money unless you are getting the vehicle for your own use. Apparently this man did that and got away with it.
@@NeilKudro lol you won't make any money on military vehicles, it's a money pit, expensive hobby, I know, I own 5 ton, duece and half, humvee and cucv blazer.
I think everything is good I just think they wanted to focus on there main channel more but I would of really love to see what they would of done with the Humvee they would of got a lot of subs and views cause there's not many channels that is mainly on the Humvee or h1
Chris Wolff I believe he said “alpha david” which is just AD. That’s the phonetic alphabet the police use. It’s more than likely a form that has the letters AD and a number in a corner. I know when I was in the Army we had similar forms like DD-14 and such.
so many stupid rules. man as long as it has 4 wheels lights and rear white lights for reverse and can go more than 50mph wipers should be enough. how about insurance? I had a problem once with a MB that came from Germany and the insurance company kept telling me it's missing a digit.
So how can the army drive them on the road if they are off road only? kinda weird also the gov needs to back the fuck up and let people live. this crazy process is why people forge titles.
sounds like the guy was a dickhead games call you win. so long as you pass the road safety required stuff you can make your own car or truck or bike and get titled . the guy was just a hater who was mad he didnt have a mac daddy ride lol
You should have filed an affidavit stating your vehicle is EXEMPT from registration. Since you gave up your allodial title, you are now screwed. I would never give my vehicle over to the state if they never had the title in the first place. Know your rights. over 100 federal cases in my favor.
