What's the greatest threat to MVs in the future? I'm thinking particularly of the the larger ones, since the smaller ones can blend in more with regular vehicles. You can vote for more than one, but I wanted to see what the consensus was...if there is one! The official Disclaimer - This is...

Just testing here.....nothing to see folks...please stay back......return to what you were doing!!!!

Here is a video of an M3M machine gun (GAU-21) mounted on a HMMWV from FN Herstal. They use another MV as a target during part of the video...not sure what it is though. This combo has pretty impressive firepower and good mobility. Looks like the unit works well with the HMMWV chassis too. You...

Have you ever seen one of these before? Just thought I'd share this picture. Bet it's an impressive sight in person! The photo is from United States Tanks of World War II, by George Forty. The test says... Mine Exploder T10. This strange looking remotely controlled mine exploder device...

If anyone is interested....I have about 4 gallons of WMO and ATF I'm willing to give to a member. There is only one condition - you've gotta drive an MV to pick it up! You can drive anything from a Jeep to an M48, I don't care. I don't have much experience with MVs so maybe I can learn a few...

Have you seen this HEMTT video before?

Here we go again, at least they're not M1A2s!! It's amazing how the Super Shermans are still in service around the world. U.S. to Supply Tanks to Lebanon in Spring 2009 BEIRUT, Dec 19, 2008 - The United States plans to deliver M-50 tanks to Lebanon in spring next year as part of a...

Here is a listing about a rebuilt Deuce: the book says this M35 Mine Protected Vehlcle was developed by AM General, the Jordanian government and a South African company in 1999. It has a Cat 3116 diesel (170 hp) with an auto tranny, bullet proof glass and lots of armor! Weight 8.8 tons, speed...

This pic is from a book I have, the weapon is a laser guided bomb. The Deuce probably survived to be listed on GL as: "NOT running, buyer load. Buyer must pick up all additional parts that are spread out over a large area. No assistance available".

This is a pretty cool video!! If it wasn't for the lack of diesel sound you'd be fooled by this RC model. Somebody spent a lot of time making it look very real. Everything looks good and it does well "off road" too.!! Enjoy!

Hey guys, I saw this 10 ton tractor the other day in Cumming GA and took some pics. It's been sitting there for about a week. The inside is a mess, no passenger seat and junk where it used to be. I'm almost 6 feet tall and I my eyes could only look directly at the headlights...it's big...

This is from the latest edition of Autoweek magazine. Usually Escape Roads tests are special interest autos, so an MV is rather unusual. Hope yall can read it. Enjoy!

I'd prefer we sell them equipment when we know it won't end up across the border in Iran. I just don't know about selling them F-16s and M1A2s. Could there be F-16 Fighting Falcons in the future of the Iraqi air force? The Iraqi government asked the Defense Department on Aug. 27 for...

Here are some recent pics from the local American Legion post.

This looks like a G-671 by IH, and I think it's an M426. Maybe somebody else can confirm that? I'm sure it came out better in this collision.

All of these were taken in Japan during 1954/55. I'm glad I don't have to explain how some of these happened. Just think of the paperwork involved!!!
