His may not have been in WW2, but I read somewhere that the early test trucks were painted with left over paint from WW2.
The M35 would not have had invasion stars painted on it.
What driver mentioned was for vehicle gatherings/trips, do it alone and you will more then likely have a difference experience. I remember a post about a year and a half ago, maybe 2 years ago about a guy driving a jeep with a 50 on it through traffic and the cops were called on him.
Never had a problem back up small trailers, never did it using deuce and a 105. But I drove HMMVW with an M116 trailer for years.
One day I was going off to guard duty and the 1sg was having a heck of a time moving his truck and trailer, I stopped to watch for a few minutes. Finally he stopped...
Unless someone changed out the motor don't be surprised if it has the multifuel, and is slow going down the road.
That was one of the reasons the military stopped using them on deuces and put the body on 5 tons. (like the one in the pic I posted)
I would love to play with the MAZ-543M, the KrAZ-6E6316, and the DoKu.
The DoKu look like a copy of one of the test vehicles that became the M274 mule. Still would be a fun toy.
If it is a 1944 then that would make an M10, not sure if the parts interchange. I don't see there would be much of a difference, but then I am not familiar with the WW2 stuff that much.
