Around here, 2.5 ton dumps are very scarce (I've seen them in the TM, but I've never seen one in person). Almost all the military 6x6 dumps are 5 tons. Of course these are all the M35 and M54 series. It seems to me there are quite a few M211/M135 2.5 ton trucks on Vancouver Island. There have been a couple I would have bought but transportation killed the deal especially since everything would have to be 100% legal to go across the border. I bet if you look around the logging country you'll find some military dumps or dump conversions in old loggers' equipment yards.
