    Looks like they were scrapping together anything they could get. Look at all the Mercedes trucks in the background. That's awesome that you have the direct history for your truck.

    Mercedes Zetros 6x6

    It's not until the last shots that you can see that it appears to have a turret hatch. I don't think I'd want to be trying to source MB repairs in middle of the desert.

    Castrol Transmax Dex/Merc the same as Dexron III?

    HMMWV in the Snow?

    In my personal SUV, I've always found downshifting in 4x4 to be much better at slowing down instead of braking. Not sure if that applies to a diesel HMMWV.
