Here's another one. http://www.govliquidation.com/

For some reason, I really want a 6x6 truck like an M35 or similar. I have no real use for it...just think it would be neat to drive it to work from time to time :)

sweet. Gonna get me a backhoe for less than $5k and do driveways and site clean up. Oonce it's paid for itself the wife can't complain when I dig a moat around the house :roll:

when in doubt set it on fire.
