I've physically inspected many vehicles offered by DRMO in Hawaii, mostly at
Barber's Point Naval Air Station and Schofield Barracks. The most notable
characteristic I observed was the amount of corrosion present, presumably a
result of the high humidity and salt spray? Last time I was there the
Marines were hauling a dozen Humvee hardtops out onto the ranges as hard
targets! Barge service to California is available . Inspection before
purchase will prevent expensive surprises!
Cheers!
