    Being former Army Supply I can tell you that the way that equipment is packed is for shipping only. After a unit takes ownership of a piece of equipment, all of that gets layed out for inventory and then put back in a specific way to facilitate ease of deployment in the field. That trailer was never issued to a unit at all so you got a literal brand new, never used piece of equipment. You can always tell if a piece of equipment was issued by unit bumper numbers which that trailer doesn't have. Also it's O.D. Green and all used equipment should be Desert Tan.

    The M989A1 Heavy Expanded Mobility Ammunition Trailer (HEMAT) is an 11 ton, wagon configuration, off-road trailer designed to move the US Army’s Multiple Launch Rocket System (MLRS) missile pods and munitions. The versatility of the HEMAT enables the U.S. military to accomplish multiple mission ranging from its primary role of hauling MLRS missile pods, to aircraft munitions, to fuel pods and bladders, as well as a multitude of other cargo. The four wheel wagon configuration design functions to provide a stable platform with the added benefit of a balanced suspension system to further enhance off-road capability. Another benefit of this design configuration is the ease in which the trailer can be hitched and unhitched to the prime mover. The trailer’s tongue is easily maneuvered to the towing pintle while the load remains stable and supported. This design enables users to rapidly drop off a loaded trailer without the need to support a heavy trailer tongue. Users must only chock block the wheels to create a safe environment around the HEMAT.
    Curb weight: 4,932 kg / 10,850 lbs.
    Payload: 10,000 kg / 22,000 lbs.
    Deck area: 4470.4 mm x 2438.4 mm / 176 inches x 96 inches

At least surplus auctions give some tax payers a way to recoup some of the excess money paid to the government (taxes) by getting a good deal. Afterall, the people buying the surplus equipment also paid taxes to help the government buy it in the first place.

      @bakerbill4274 Před 20 dny +9

      Sometimes, it's the purchasing contract language that's the problem. I've seen ludicrous spec demands in some of these. While any reasonably sized pipe will work, the government will reject anything that doesn't meet the contract specs.
      The trouble comes when the contract calls for me to supply any order quantity "from 1 each to 1,000 each." No minimum orders allowed. So if I have to re-tool the shop to make a single part to government spec, I have to charge for not just the part, but also the time lost in re-tooling the shop.
      We all know it's ludicrous, but these government contracts can put you out of business if you're not on top of things in the bid process.

      @@bakerbill4274 No one is arguing against a business charging the government x amount of dollars, We complain about the governments utter stupidity with how they spend our money, As you said damn near any pipe would do and they could spend a tiny fraction of the cost on it, instead they come up with some ludicrous spec requirement for absolutely no reason and spend outrageous money to fulfill that request, The question is why do we allow them to constantly spend hundreds of times more for a very specific thing that doesn't even do the job any better than the much cheaper alternative. That goes with everything, Weapon contracts, Equipment contracts, Etc. They pay stupid money for "military spec" when really military spec means bear minimum to pass some random ass requirements at the cheapest bid for a ludicrous quantity of items. First question is why do they spend so much for stupid random ass specs, Second question is why for something like a pipe do they buy from the cheapest bidder that can fulfill an entire quantity order rather than source from multiple cheaper bidders that can fulfill parts of the order for cheaper, And finally why have such ludicrous specs for stupid shit when you can use damn near anything readily available and cheap such as a standard pipe.

    The title is probably wrong. There is no reason to believe that was the cheapest one. People actually participating in the auction may have bid lower live bids. There is a reason why stuff can go cheap: I just had an estate sale, and stuff nobody buys usually gets hauled away to charities or the dump, even though it's perfectly fine. It costs more to advertise to sell it than you get.

    Not a new trailer per-se. The way the military ensures that there is always available equipment for war reserve is to send a piece of equipment that has been used to IROAN (inspect repair only as necessary) and then paint, the CARC paint date on the back left corner will be when it was painted and will be different than the manufacturer date. That is why there is CARC paint overspray on the tires and electrical/air lines, nothing is removed when they repaint, origional manufacturer equipment wont have the overspray. Equipment is then placed in storage for break glass in case of... Now that those trailers are being replaced in the fleet by something else and no longer in service they are going to auction, and you are getting it straight from storage where it has likely been sitting for a number of years.
    Good Buy!

    Military Trailers are tough to beat especially new ones for virtually free. I’ve owned a little tiny M-416 and enjoyed using it to tow behind my full size 1976 Chevy Blazer which the truck didn’t even feel behind it. The only reason I sold it was I downsized all my camping gear to fit inside the truck. The M998…Trailers are pretty heavy (11K) and one of the reasons they sell cheap is you need something like an F-550, P-Built, etc. to pull it. Here in California you also need a Class A License and considering what California does that comes with it's own set of headaches. This will be great for hauling that 10,000 lb Generator for your “Bug Out” Enterprise but somehow it seems to me if you're concerned about "bugging out", you’ll already have an underground shelter in place completely set up and equipped with provisions ahead of time. For that matter, considering where you live, build the bug out place on your property and that way (the heck with the trailer….) you can walk to the shelter….
