I think a lot of people would enjoy seeing a full build series with the humvee
Yes!
Agree. Its so satisfying
100%
Hell yeah!
Agree, big potential
I was a hmmwv mechanic for 12 years in the army. That thing looks in pretty good shape. If you always disconnect the main ground first and leave it last to hook back up you shouldn’t get shocked again. The only cause if a power drain on that thing would be forgetting to turn the master light switch completely off. The death wobble your getting at about 60-65 is the huge bead locks they run on them. They are hard to balance, but doable. A good balance and alignment should fix it.
👆Thanks for watching inbox
Me immediately I have a prize for you
I sure hope he reads his comments. This one is great advice and I know nothing about that sort of thing.
It's like 90% of Humvee's have that wobble. 😆
Hey @Mav, I’m not a mechanic, nor have I ever even been in a HumV.
But this sounds like solid advice. Id say definitely go with old @jaimeseagraves advice.
Humvees are just a pain in the ass but get them running right they don't break........often.
Hey Mav, worked on a number of the M1123s and a few with the shelters in the motor pool.
The fact that you were able to force the truck to 65mph is a miracle it didnt explode or make an astronaut out of a piston. It shakes likely because its shaped like a brick with massive airflow underneath. The alignment I'm certain could be improved and a better steering gear would help, pretty sure there have to be aftermarket steering boxes for these by now.
That space above the cab usually hosts an A/C unit for the shelter, although the military usage requires on site electrical support to run said Shelter's Electronics and A/C unit. If you want to power an A/C window unit via solar or put in a wide window and use it for storage. I know the hood says "NO STEP" but its pretty stable to stand on if need be also.
That blockage you found in your filler neck is/was apart of the galvanized chain {like a tag on the chain, still don't know what it's for but see them still on the trucks regularly} that would chain your filler neck screen (mesh bucket bit) to your filler neck and another chain going from the filler neck to the lid to the filler neck.
As mentioned below, the idea is you screw the handle of your fuel cap and the rubber gasket gets squishes causing it to seal the tank from water seepage during water fording.
It would be worth mentioning the cabs usually have pretty trash sound barrier, the 6.5 in those is the same as the 6.5 in 90s Chevy 3/4 ton and 1 ton trucks. get some insulation in the doghouse cover, the firewalls/footwells, plastic splashguards in the engine bay and under the fiberglass hood.
Guess the USMC ones got better motors ;) But i know the feeling when they sound like a wounded dragon above 40ish mph. Especially when they're exposed to fine sand every day for months... Still a pretty solid machine to get around in theatre. You lot kindly "donated" a couple back when we took over the field hospital i worked at ;)
@@peterpain6625 after the 10xx series they all had 6.5L Detroit.
@@kalebnolen1616 No clue what those "donations" had back then. They got the job done... Even after mayor punishment (either kinetic or "bad driving" ;))
I used to get my fast back, 1026? To 70mph on the autobahn
Is there something you could do underneath to restrict the airflow and make it more stable and a better ride it seems like since you said that having massive air flow going under it causing that that it could be remedied is that so if so is it easy I mean
This is nuts. The responsible unit code on that HMMWV (M21420) is from 2D Tank Battalion, which just recently deactivated sadly. Odds are I’ve probably slept in Mav’s truck a few times here and there too 😅 😂 just really cool and nostalgic to see my old unit on these videos.
Sad that they deactivated. Hope your doing well. Sure wish I could’ve joined when we were at our peak.
@@mr.shepherd_1776 such a great, historic unit. Hope you’re doing good as well and Semper Fi 🙏🏼
God bless you, thanks for your service!
11:40 Hector, any idea who Gunnery Sgt Perez is? That address doesn't even check out to anywhere specifically. There is a Duncan Street here in Georgia in Douglasville, specifically...but that number address doesn't exist anywhere. Kind of curious why they spray painted an address on a piece of plywood, as well.
Holy crap Mav! The RUC number on that Hummer is M21420 which was 2nd Tank Bn! My old Marine Corps unit!
That's crazy! What a small world it is. Maybe you rode in that once...
What a small world 🌎…😍
This is why I love Mav. Who else on TH-cam would make homemade gumbo out of the back of an old run-down military humvee in the middle of nowhere? No one, only Mav.
I have an answer for this, me.
I’d do it if I could get a h1
Exactly!!
We only live physically once so we shouldn’t be afraid to do anything bro, i smoke weed on my TH-cam channel and i ate Mcdonald’s inside Walmart, screw anyones opinion brotha☃️☃️
Very cringey thing to say
Never watched you before but as a US military member, I love the video. The Humvee is not the most comfortable vehicle or the most reliable, but I still have a soft spot for them. You should definitely keep us updated with a build series or something!
Hey Mav, I noticed in one of the shots that you had the panel light switch left on. That will drain the battery pretty quickly if left that way. I’ve used vehicles like this for almost 18 years now. I highly recommend checking that light switch to make sure you didn’t accidentally turn it on before you get out. It’ll save you a lot of money in batteries.
That truck definately deserves a build and more trips in the wild like that. Looking forward to seeing it Mav! :)
The same
no better feeling than seeing a 35 min video from MAV
The longer the better from Mav!
Facts
Um I can think of a few
Have you tried drugs and alcohol lol
I love that mav mocked the baby but still had the kindness and courtesy to pick up it's dropped toy
I thought so too.
except yeah and yep he replied which was ignorant.
Mav, love the Humvee. Im with everyone else...a build series, please. If all your switches are off and you still have an electrical drain, put a battery on/off switch on your batteries. Thats at least a solution for now on the power drain issue.
Good luck with your Humvee. Its enjoyable to see you give her a new life.
"Keep On Truckin'"...
You need:
- Battery Tenders = one 12 vdc for each battery or a 24 vdc for the 2 batteries.
- A battery feed Shut Off switch like buses and construction machines have.
- A battery charger that can charge 0 volts dead batteries. Many new battery chargers do not work on voltage less than 3 vdc.
I laugh when I saw those electrican gloves. The only time I used them is when I worked on over 500 volts.
Nice suggestion with battery Shut off switch
make sure the shelter is not still wired into the truck. nothing else can really drain those batteries unless the electronics are plugged in
Don't leave your batteries in the vehicle all winter long. They freeze and die a quick death.🥶
There’s loads of little things you can do to quieten the engine a bit, make it run a bit smoother etc. also putting the doors on properly will help too 😁👌👍
blowing my drink all over me before the adventure even began would have already pissed me right off lol. You're so down to earth and calm about everything lol. A true gift.
The fuel cap is designed to keep water out of the tank while crossing rivers and streams. Could just unhook the battery until you figure out what's draining them.
The "Dad if youre watching this, please return my circular saw" killed me 😂
And the batteries 😆
Haha got emmmm
@@westsideskateshop564 lok
Would love to see you custom the inside, like you did with your truck. keep up the amazing content.
For real!
second that
The contrast of going from a nice Mercedes to camping in a janky Humvee is kinda hilarious 😂
The weird shake is likely due to you having the aerodynamics of a freaking house
I remember when Mav first started this channel and I watched it, didn’t know how I got there or why but years later I’m addicted and I get super excited to watch a new episode now ! I love it so much more too since I live in Zimmerman MN and have a cabin in Marshall MN! I love watching the MN areas Mav explores !
Same here anytime he’s around duluth going back to his house I get sentimental. Any idea of where he lives?
14:58 The fuel cap is the way it is because military Humvees can be outfitted to drive through five feet of water. You don't want water getting into your fuel tank, do you? USMC automotive mechanic here.
What about the hunk of sheet lead he pulled out of it?
@@DrSatansAbortionClinic to catch trash like he pulled out
@@DrSatansAbortionClinic Yeah, that's not mil-spec. I can't explain that one.
@@jxg5448 mil spec just means cheapest shit hahaha ask me how I know
If you haven’t built it out yet, put in a pull out storage unit on the floor. Then build a platform over the wheel wells for a mattress and shelves up the walls for storage.
Mav,
I would make it a minimalist build, but give it a solar kit, and propane kit so you can run either/or for cooking. I would also think about trailering the Humvee after building it out and using it as a excursion vehicle that can be driven from a base camp, that has the trailer and a few more amenities like water tanks and maybe more cold storage for perishable food.
Lot of us are the same as you, we get cabin fever from the Midwest winters and that humvee could be packed up with supplies and you could live out of it for a month in the SW in the winter months.
I spent allot of time working, driving and living in one of those machines. You defiantly have a USMC model due to the exhaust and air intake snorkels. The fuel cap is made that way so you can really tighten it down so no water gets in the fuel tank when submerging the Humvee. It would be a good idea to put a brush guard/winch on it and then drive where you want. Enjoy the vehicle and thanks for sharing the video.
Hey, some Army models had a tall air tube and a few even had the 'tractor exhaust' pipe as well.
Yeah the back of the wood board 11:39 saying GYSGT Perez (Gunnery Sergeant, aka a Marine rank) & 1854 duncan street (Camp Lejeune, aka a Marine base) gave it away for me. But yeah... Intakes and exhausts...
@@travelinman482 exactly
:20 shows the USMC marking on the outside panel…My Army eyes caught it.
That "weird shake" is normal lol. These things were never really designed to go over 55mph.
No wonder the radio mount fell out at 80 mph in a up armored 2 seater downhill lol
Yeah they can blow up at 70mph
Mav I think a lot of people would love to see a full build in the humvee.
He can barely charge a battery and put his doors on wrong. Maybe not a good idea.
A hammock and a military one would work great and it’s supper lightweight and doesn’t take up a lot of space . We brought em with us to the field as we were an SP Artillery unit .
It would be awesome to see a flip down bed, or even a platform bed that is suspended from the ceiling and you can lower it when you are ready to use. You have so much space with this one - excited to see what you do with it.
Name it the , “Vee-Hive”.
You need a rooftop A/C, a winch, water tank & some KC lights.
good idea man i completely had a brain fart or would have added that in my long essay comment lmao
Mav, you crack me up. The impression of the crying kid was hilarious. Thanks for being so real. Looks like you have so much fun
The baby dropping the keys and the water exploding couldn’t have had been timed more perfectly 👌💯
Until youre able to figure out the draw on the batteries, the easiest thing to do is disconnect the negative cable when the truck is going to sit for a while. Also vehicle electrical systems are a lot safer to work with compared to home AC systems(in my opinion). Just simply connecting and disconnecting the battery cables, although not enjoyable, it wont do any serious damage if you get shocked real quick.
can easily add a battery cutoff switch
I came here to comment that he needs a battery cutoff switch 😂
It's just the strangest thing having watched Mav for over a year now, someone I've never met in person, and yet feeling so connected to him and like I know him on a personal level. Mav, your personality comes through the camera so well. I don't think I'll ever stop watching your videos, so please don't stop making them as long as you enjoy it.
He’s like an old friend isn’t he?
For real. I've been watching him since his Gourmet Ramen video and I have to keep reminding myself I actually don't know this dude irl
Id say we all kind of feel this way. Between him and Steve it feels like we have known them for years
A humvee for outdoor camping is like bringing an assault gun to a knife fight.
I like it 😆
Hey Mac, the reason the humvee shakes at high speeds is because it’s not meant to be driven that fast. 40-50 is the sweet spot(and the safest)
Hello Mav, When Optima batteries are dead they need to be attached to another hot battery to be charged, so you would connect them up and then put the charger on the wet cell battery that you're connected to. They just won't typically take a charge directly from the battery charger. Enjoy watching your videos.
You just wasted your time he never reads any messages 😆
It’s enjoyable to see you living your best life. Appreciate the transparency. Went on a trip here recently and found myself lost because I didn’t really enjoy it. Sometimes that’s just the feeling. Thanks, Mav
Get your tires balanced, have the alternator checked, put in some hooks cattycorner for a hammock when its warm out and yes flip the door hinges it will make it a little quieter . Another thing for the batteries is a small solar panel and converter. These are purely suggestions, hope it helps.
As a veteran who’s worked on, driven, fixed with the humvee is that it’s recommended to not go past 55+ mph.
I went ~65 mph down hill on an FLA back in the days and I thought the vehicle was about to fall apart.🤣
Почему такое ограничение по скорости, из-за возможного перегрева?
@@Nitrat58 combination of bad aero and a few mechanical limitations. Just upsets it a lot more than you’d expect.
@@baamonster2 The ones that have overdrive transmissions will go 65. Most of them shake like they are about to fall apart because the tires get flat spots from sitting in the motorpool for months/years.
as a veteran MP who has investigated dozens of accidents of humvees with catastrophic mechanical failures at highway speeds, often fatalities, i second this recomendation.
You should build a couch that you could use to sit on while you're cooking/hanging out inside the humvee that could be converted into a full size bed. Like to convert from couch mode to bed mode, you slide out the base and move down the back cushion to fill in the space between the base cushion and the wall, put some covers on it, and boom, bed mode.
As for ventilation, get 1 (or 2 for cross-ventilation) maxxair fans and mount it on the roof. You can use them to suck the air out when you're cooking and also blow air in to keep you cooler. Plus, they come with a cover so rain can't come in the vehicle.
New to the channel but realizing you truly embody how to learn from your mistakes. Big ups buddy.
Ear plugs and a bug zapper and you are golden!
Any day Mav uploads is a good day.
True
Days over now 🌑
💯💯💯
I hate rats and mouses so much
And wasps
This episode had a hint of camping with Steve for some reason 😂.
It would be a good video to hook up with Steve with this truck and Steve with his bus.
My experience with HMMWVs is that no matter how well you maintain them, they still die for absolutely no reason. Good luck with this old beast, this is a really cool project!
I would love to see a build. I would think that some sound deadening on the floor, firewall, walls, doors, etc. would make a much quieter drive. You might also see about the alignment to see if you can clean up some of that "death wobble" at high speeds, but I don't think they're made to do 70mph. Really excited to see what you do with this thing.
You should add a bunk bed that doubles as a overhead shelf so you can camp with Murray!!!
If not they will have to share the queen size bed lol
I second this. 👏🏻
Mav, have you though about adding 6 solar panels on the roof and about 4 to 5 batteries to store energy? That thing could be autosustainable! And also very interesting to camp with :)
why 6 specifically?
Good idea tho
I think 6 solar panels is the most he will be able to install on the roof by the size of it, just guessing:) might be more might be less
It’s really awesome watching you Mav, made me want to start my own build like that & just travel. So cool! Just keep on truckin’
Build it up. Would be a cool little off grid set up. Insulation, ventilation, maybe a small solar set up
Hey Mav. For wasps, bees, hornets, etc. get a 3-5 gallon bucket, pour some Dawn liquid detergent in it and through it on the nest preferably late in the evening or early in the morning before sunrise when they are all on the nest. This way you don’t have to mess with poison. Use the solution in a hand spray bottle to kill the mosquitoes inside your vehicle.
Dawn soap is literally the best thing ever
What solution
Repent to Jesus Christ “The father of a righteous child has great joy; a man who fathers a wise son rejoices in him.”
Proverbs 23:24 NIV

I was stationed with a communications Battalion in Pendleton. The Humvee brings back nostalgia memories.
9th comm ?
@@thomasbell2890 lol ... yeahh ! Good ol Mainside !
Mac, you own a quality USA military vehicle! Don’t be apprehensive about trees in your path! If you don’t try to float it, the Hummve will go through practically everything. Invest in very rugged off road tires. I love my BF Goodrich KO2’s. 8 or 10 ply are best if you really want to go serious off road. Make sure you have winches in both front and back. Enjoy your new toy!
Hopped in a new Benz to get batteries for a old humvee... I love it😂☺💪
I have so many memories (good & bad) with this exact type of vehicle during my time in the corps. Interesting to see someone have so much fun with one. Please do a build and give this thing the second life it deserves. Either way, love the content man. You are inspiring.
Hey Mav! I’m pretty sure you have an exhaust leak where the headers meet the crossover pipe which is creating a lot of noise. I work on these all the time and I have had the same issue before.
As uncomfortable as the truck looks to live in there is something tremendously comfortable about the beat up military surplus vibe. As any service member will tell you, you find places to “build your nest” where ever available when ever available. That nostalgia is what makes this so cool and comfortable. Being so exhausted you will literally sleep any where but you make the space yours out of your gear. Pelican cases for tables, power supplies for your laptop or tablet, stash of snack near by and if your lucky a woobie hung up with 550 cord to give you a little privacy. I dig the mill surp, vibe smattered with camp gear and would double down on that. But honestly who cares what any one thinks, make it yours like you do bro and it will be awesome.
My wife and I have been discussing picking one up for several years now... she has been trolling TH-cam for build ideas, love to see a full build out on yours.
I was taught to remove the negative battery cable first thing so the vehicle no longer has a grounded chassis. It won't spark off the wrench during negative removal, nor after, not unless you join the contacts right on the battery.
Ye that’s best but also if you aimlessly throw the terminal around and it’s hits metal or other grounds it will make sparks regardless therefore just hold it with one hand until you’re done
I'm always impressed with the way you adapt and overcome.
his mind is so sharp on how to figure a plan A, B, C he is amazing.
Retired Marine, here. I saw USMC etched on that baby at the 0:19 mark!! We get all the broken toys, Mav, but we just fix it and keep on going! Beauty you got there! ERRRRAHHHHH!! P.S. She'll love you forever, but you have to name her, though. That's the secret! 😉
still using those trucks in the Seabees currently, there may be a "battle switch" near the battery's or a hook up to one that's draining the battery's, does it all the time in our trucks. great content man love watching it!
I drove a Humvee for a few years when I was in the Army. Anytime we had to drive them on the roads I kinda hated it, but whenever we were in the field I loved them. The capabilities they have are amazing, but are prone to having problems all the time. Truly a love-hate relationship lol
HMMWV
@@travelinman482 that’s the technical way of spelling it, but literally no one spells it like that who’s in lol. Whenever we text each other to fix/drive a humvee we spell it “humvee” instead.
They got problems cause y’all never properly pmcs them for us to order and fix shit 😂😂
@@andrewlanza9033 lmao bs, I had to pmcs those mf’s damn near every other day. It was the mechanics that never wanted to do their job. They always love to blame the operators and stop there
Thanks, Mav. That noise would drive me and my hearing aides mad. The fact that you can see the inside as a blank canvas is impressive. Eager to see what you’ll do next. PS since you have the Jackery bring yourself a little fan. Stay safe… have fun!
Do like my dad does with his hearing aids and just don’t wear them 😂
Very awesome. Super envious. Been looking at similar Humvees for my son and I to do our own build! Love your videos
That Humvee is pretty cool. The loud engine noise and tires and wind when going down the road is to be expected but it looks fun just driving straight thru all those woods and stuff.
Channels like this are the reason I don’t understand people paying for cable these days lol. Endless amazing content.
Cable always comes in handy when you gotta watch live sports my man.
@@chillofy2311 besides that it's useless in my opinion.
This camp goes hard, skeeters and ventilation looked a little brutal, awesome to see the longer video too! Cheers brother
The arching battery bit really bring me back to a time where my battle buddy and i had to change out a battery in our motor pool. 🤣 Almost welded a wrench to the posts. Good times. I hope this truck treats you better than any of them had treated us while using them for ops 🤣🤙🏼
I love when Mav cooks in his videos. 😂🥘
Mav, the Thermacell biting insect repellant is not to be used around food or indoors \ closed spaces. It is poisonous. I checked the last recent posts to see if anyone else mentioned this. Please be careful, we want you to stay safe :)
Louisiana swamp life mosquitos just laughed at me & partied even harder when I tried a thermacell on an outdoor balcony!
Just saying! Lol
I love the offroad videos like this and your Moab trips. Keep it up and I’m excited to see where this build goes
When my kids were little my deceased husband had a 47 willys Jeep that he totally rebuilt from top to bottom and it ran like a champ and he taught the kids how to sort of drive while sitting on his lap. They took it back in the wilderness, through the cold dumps, you name it that thing was a bear. It was a real military willys Jeep from world war II. So I can understand how you could really love this thing it's a beast too. Sadly that Willy's Jeep ended up in a very severe car accident and he got rid of it. I'm going to try that gumbo. Looks great 😀👍
Nice Ride Mav. I'm a Japanese American who lived in Japan for 10 years so Steve is a sentimental favorite for me but this one has a fun factor when you drive which is nice...
Another inspiring video. I love that humvee. You've got lots of toys now. Very excited to see you using them in winter conditions. Keep trucking. ❤AB
Yes, you gotta love a young man going to buy a battery for the humvee in a mercedes!! Mav has certainly put in the work and deserves all the toys.
@@rockwitch2114 but still DOESNT own a hairbrush...
Tony!! First Steve ( Camping with Steve ) now Tony! 😎 It sure would be something to get all three of you together! …… in what country would be the question?
With regard to your engine noise problem get as much boom matt as you can on the floor firewall and inside of the engine compartment as is feasible. Then call around to your local truck tire centers and find someone who does Tire truing. I just retired from 40 years in the tire business and I can tell you from experience balancing tires that big will do very little good it's the high spots in the tread that actually causes vibration. Also get the front end aligned to prevent future uneven tire wear that will help minimize Tire vibration in the future.
6 years national guard truck driver, this is by far my fav vehicle...can't wait to see what you do to her...
Mav, I recommend getting some EXIDE (6TAGM) or HAWKER (6TAGM) batteries for that vehicle. They work good on that frame. Also be careful on how long you hold the ignition switch, you want to release as soon as you hear the engine rumble to life. The fly wheel and the Bendix drive teeth on those are notorious for going out. 🤘
I tried not to laugh at the "Dad taking the tools" part. Well OK, not really! 😂 And the look of shock when the well-shaken beverages spewed! This is gonna be a fun series!
you could probably stuff a whole room ac in that cubby and duct the tube out where the antenna conduit/passthrough is for evacuating the hot air out of the cabin, as you said, shes a blank slate, and lots of potential for a pretty sweet camping rig, and the platform over the cab would be a good place to put some storage boxes, or even just install a window AC through the front of the box and like you said, build a kitchen with a small sink in the cubby area and have you some storage, anything is possible, and those rigs are extremely modular so you can literally do whatever you want with some modifications to fit the application, stay safe brother, great vid
as always outstanding it's good to see your four-wheel drive it's a beauty I think with the fall maybe a wooden floor maybe just thinking out loud but it's good to see your video hope you bring some more fantastic ones like this keep on trucking
When you use a chefs knife, try keeping the tip of the blade on the cutting board in contact with it the whole time. Cut with the part of the blade closer to the handle and just let the weight of the knife do the work for you. It should take less effort and you’ll have more control over the knife and less chance of slipping and cutting yourself.
I’ve spent a lot of time living out of one of these in the field, always wondered what it would be like to have one as a civilian camper. Have fun with that thing man, hope it’s better than the ones we had.
Yo...I really enjoyed your video. Awesome truck. So much different things you could do. God bless an keep on truckin...fr. Saskatchewan! 😁👍💯🇨🇦
My favourite thing is watching you cook in all your different vehicles. Definitely gonna try making gumbo after seeing you make it. Looked so good😩
I think for when you’re camping in your vehicles, or to even have when you’re driving that thing I’m sure it gets roasting in there with no AC you should look into a portable camping AC like EcoFlow or ZeroBreeze they have portable ACs and even extra battery packs you can keep charged and options for solar charging as well which I think is pretty cool. Might be worth checking into? I think with the space you have in the back of that you could probably do a really nice setup with it.
Dang, I was hoping to win
I was working up in Minnesota last year and I made gumbo for my crew, with me being from south west Louisiana . Took me about 3-4 hours to make. Made my roux from scratch, oil and flour to the desired color then added the veggies and meat. They loved it.
Mav, you make all the filming look effortless and I forget how much work you put into these adventures. Thx for all of it.

Great video Mav! We are moving into our van full time with our 4 dogs in two weeks to travel the country and run our dog boarding business from the road. Our channel is tiny but we got major motivation from your story so hopefully we can make it like you did. Hopefully we can make our way through Minnesota and meet up
I'm just here to say that I enjoy living vicariously through you, young man. Wish i would have/could have done a lot of the things you do in my younger years! Thanks for posting another fun video.
P.s. you know you're doin just fine when your Dad is borrowing your tools for a change lol
First of all, congrats on 2 mil! And a recommendation I have is putting a ram bar on the front of the Humvee, one that possibly raps around the front end. That would look so gnarly!
I want your life. You are an amazingly impressive, self-sufficient, friendly, and inspirational young man.
13:07 that’s the Boys in BELMONT !! Such a great band 👏🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Hey Mav, That big shelf looks like the perfect spot for a spring assist cabinet bed that could fold right into that cubby and give him tons of floor space. There is so much you could do with the humvee
"Deathtrap maybe but it is cool looking" everyone felt that
Love your videos Mav! Been following your adventures for years and they keep getting better!
Watching these videos always makes me want to turn my ridgeline into a camper and explore. Also the meal looked amazing as well!

Mav, long time channel watcher! Love your content. I would very much enjoy seeing a full build video on the Humvee. I really think that making it into a mobile base camp on wheels would be legit! I know you'll come up with some killer ideas, and as always man, you know the drill, KEEP ON TRUCKING!!!
That is a common problem on those diesel switch start they trickle drain the battery. May need to store the battery in your home for longer life. Also it is diesel so when moisture gets to the battery cables it prevents the glow battery cable from heating due to rust corrosion. In all it is an awesome diesel truck will always need work TLC. Lets go camping deisel Hum Vee!!! :) Nice filming. :)
When Parking They always said make sure the switches look like the peace sign or the battery power will drain
or a master cutoff switch. seen a lot of commercial diesel 90s and early 00s with master shutoff to the battery so it doesnt drain
