Mine is not listed but BBF lists them from time to time.
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
Maybe I'm weird, but I love the sound of that C turbo!The newer 5-tons are the flavor of the month but even they are being replaced by the even sexier LMTVs.
If you want something that's fun to drive, manual transmission and steering then get a Deuce. Plus it will run on waste motor oil.
If you want something that's fun to drive, manual transmission and power steering but bigger then get an M809 series 5-ton. It will run some waste motor oil although I only run diesel in mine.
If you want something that's fun to drive, auto transmission and power steering and even bigger then get an M939 series 5-ton. Depending on the engine you can still run some waste oil.
If you want something that's fun to drive, auto and P/S and looks like the latest MVs used by the US then get an LMTV. Be prepared to spend a lot of money on one though.
Price wise they start at the beginning of my list and go up. I didn't mention the big boys, HEMTT, PLS or MK48 or M915 or M916 or M920 or HET.
For the money you can't beat a Deuce for the fun and the C turbo gives you the cool factor sitting at a light or driving around town. that is until you can't stand to listen to it anymore and get the D turbo.![]()
Soldiers B and C are currently 7 and 9. I doubt they will be much help in helping with tire removal or hub services anytime soon. They really enjoy the quieter vehicles and that was the primary reason for crossing into the CUCV and M939 5 Ton arena. First few pictures are from the Deuce days, last 5 are more recent.You're lucky, you have a soldier B and C to help. Some of us have come to the conclusion we are getting to be too old to hump 300 pound tires during services. It became all I could do was deal with the A3 wheel assembly. Hence, I'm getting rid of my toys. New job, new priorities but I'll be keeping the MB.
