There is no question its a very nice truck. There are a lot of very nice M37's, Power Wagons and other makes of old iron out there that are very nice.
But not (1) one, is worth that kind of money, not worth even half that kind of money. The only thing that can drive that kind of money is 'Absolute, Proven,
indisputable, Provenance to some well known 4 or 5 star General or Admiral'.
These high price auctions draw a crowd of people with pockets so deep, even they cant feel to bottom. Money is simply a vehicle to have fun with and boost ego among your financial equals. A nice vehicle appears, the deep pocket boys like it and now its up to them to beat all the other deep pocket boys and take it home.
Its not the truck, its a ego trip for the deep pocket boys.
