Oshkosh Truck Models

The HEMTT (Heavy Expanded Mobility Tactical Truck) is the U.S. Army’s primary heavy tactical truck — an 8×8 all-wheel-drive platform in continuous production since 1982 with over 35,800 units built. Available in numerous variants including the M977 and M985 cargo trucks, M978 fuel tanker, M983 tractor, and M984 wrecker. Powered by Detroit Diesel and Caterpillar diesel engines. The HEMTT’s TAK-4 independent suspension system provides exceptional off-road mobility in any terrain. Surplus HEMTT trucks occasionally enter the civilian market through government auctions and are purchased by construction, mining, and heavy haul operators. We purchase all HEMTT configurations in any condition.

The MTVR (Medium Tactical Vehicle Replacement) is the U.S. Marine Corps’ primary medium tactical truck — a 6×6 platform with 7-ton off-road payload capacity, first delivered in 1999. Over 11,000 units built for the U.S. Marines and Navy plus export customers. Highly mobile across sand, mud, snow, and rough terrain. Available as cargo truck, wrecker, and tractor variants. Like the HEMTT, surplus MTVR trucks enter the civilian market through government disposal programs. We purchase all MTVR configurations in any condition.

The PLS (Palletized Load System) is the U.S. Army’s heavy logistics truck — a 10×10 platform with a hydraulic hook arm that loads and unloads standardized flatracks without ground personnel or forklifts. Over 6,000 M1074 and M1075 units built plus thousands converted from A0 to A1 standard. Powered by the Caterpillar C15 diesel producing 600 HP with an Allison automatic transmission. The self-loading capability makes the PLS extraordinarily efficient for rapid logistics and ammunition resupply. Surplus PLS trucks in the civilian market are sought for heavy construction and mining operations. We purchase all PLS configurations.

The LVSR (Logistics Vehicle System Replacement) is the U.S. Marine Corps equivalent of the Army’s PLS — a 10×10 heavy tactical logistics truck with load handling system capability. Approximately 2,020 units built in MKR15 wrecker, MKR16 tractor, and MKR18 cargo variants. First fielded in 2009. The LVSR replaced the older LVS (Logistics Vehicle System) in Marine Corps service. Less commonly encountered in the civilian surplus market than the HEMTT or PLS due to lower production numbers. We purchase all LVSR examples in any condition.

Oshkosh’s airport snow removal trucks are among the most specialized vehicles on earth — designed to clear an entire runway in a single pass at speeds up to 55 mph. The WT-2206 of the post-WWII era could plow snow at speeds conventional equipment couldn’t approach — a capability critical to the Distant Early Warning system during the Cold War. Modern Oshkosh airport plows such as the H-series continue this legacy with massive blade width and high-speed clearing capability. Used at major commercial airports and U.S. military air bases worldwide. Surplus airport plows enter the civilian market through government disposal. We purchase all Oshkosh snow removal trucks in any condition.

Oshkosh’s snow removal heritage extends back to the Model H truck of 1925 — a powerful six-cylinder truck that proved highly useful for road construction and snowplowing for municipalities. Oshkosh’s four-wheel-drive capability was a key differentiator in snow removal applications from the beginning. Today Oshkosh produces highway snow removal equipment for state DOT fleets, municipalities, and private contractors across the Snow Belt states. We purchase all Oshkosh snow removal trucks in any condition.
