start[edit]

Written in US English with day/month/year date format. Months are abbreviated with the first three letters and no period. Load ratings are in tons and feet, other dimensions are in pounds and inches. Sammy D III (talk) 18:32, 25 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Inches to feet[edit]

I have been told that feet are easier than inches for many people. Sammy D III (talk) 03:23, 21 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Name 21 Nov 2016[edit]

I am thinking of changing the name to "M809 Series 5-ton 6x6 trucks". Sammy D III (talk) 14:43, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

References[edit]

Some similar articles have this format. Anything can go into "References" but will not have a footnote. Any inline cites (<ref> xxx </ref>) will come out in "Notes". To make those short ones use " {{sfnp | author or title | 1999 | p=}} " , when the info matches on two or more they will combine below. Sammy D III (talk) 18:00, 18 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
