Many units no longer are willing to accept orders because the government can do little for them or little to them. Supplies are procured locally, and geopolitical concerns have fallen by the wayside, for the most part. Obviously, not everyone feels this way. However, I think it fits with the world that GDW created to have some American formations putting down roots in Germany.
I can't comment on the numbers of AFV.
I seem to recall that about 6,000 US troops from Europe are sent to CENTCOM.

You are correct, the RDF Sourcebook quotes the 6,000 figure as incoming personnel.
