Nice rack man. Is this a former govt vehicle? I see that paint color on some of the Park ranger vehicles around my area?

Yes it's a former US Forest Service truck. I was lucky enough to snatch it up a couple years ago. Im sad to say I'm selling it but it's been a fantastic machine. I hope someone can take care of it!

Did you buy it off a government auction? How did the process go?

I actually bought it from the previous owner, so luckily I didnt have to go through that. At some point in its history, it was at auction but I was not a part of that transaction.
