Scrap? The economics is there to put them in shipping containers and ship them back to the states and sell them AS-IS for a healthy profit. Add in the customizers who will focus on making them "road legal" and it's a further boost to the economy. Literally win-win-win.
Certainly scrap is the next best idea, and I completely agree that the absolute worst idea is just gifting them away as trash. Fuck that static.
I didn't really do any economic estimate of bringing all of them back but yes, there is a sizeable desire in the US for military vehicles that are road legal. I have heard there are guys that are taking Duramax diesels and putting them in humvees and making them daily drivers. Instead of 10 mpg, they're now getting 16-20. Which still kind of sucks but better than 10 or whatever ridiculous number it is. (I've read as high as 12 for the standard ones, far less for up-armored ones)
