It sounds like they only taxied it, an never test flew it, before sending it off. Great job, but I would think additional testing would have been prudent.

The 7 Ton MTVR is made by Oshkosh. The Caiman is made by BAE.

It seems that the Y or Y6 was a 4 ton.

I've seen some of the Donaldson pre-cleaners on GL before. I think some MRAPs used them.

For fording, why do so many not have an exhaust snorkel? I'm surprised the HMMWV in the video doesn't have one.

I rear facing work light at night could mask a person that's beside the vehicle.

Thanks, you've confirmed an idea I've had in the back of my mind. Great work.

I like the Energizer Lithium AA/AAA batteries for anything that will sit. They have an excellent shelf life, as well as extended power delivery. There only downside is once they are done, the voltage drop fast.

I fear that would be a short lived thread.

Slightly more on topic, he does appear to use some kind of PACCAR COE 8x8 to move his Scorpion. I'm only posting his details because he always has interesting machines. In one search, he does appear to have or had a M123. I'm not trying to further any statements he has, and please don't...

A local guy has a Scorpion, and has driven it on the streets. But his life's goal is to irritate the local officials and law enforcement. Prior to a 17 year federal vacation, he had a Sherman, a couple half tracks, etc. Those got driven on the streets as well (on historical tags)...

They come in different sizes, with and without motors. Is there any kind of barge service that can move it reasonably? The boat number would tell the story. ie 26MW8553 = 26 foot motor whaleboat, made in 1985, 53rd boat of the year.

I have been let go with a warning, specifically because I pulled to a safe area for the cop to do his job. The more you set them at ease, the nicer they might be. If stopped on the shoulder at night in my car, I've learned that leaving the dome light on gets you noticed more than just hazards.

What is a gasoline welder, one with it's own generator?

Any issue with Hobart? I know for a while they share some Miller parts.

I had no idea that ISIS captured 40 M1A1s. Does anyone know if they've been neutralized?

It looks like there are still a few of these beasts roaming around Little Creek, VA.

I've seen an H1 tow a 30+ foot cigarette boat on I-95. Was it safe? I have no idea.

Originally AM General offered bare bones Hummers for commercial offroad applications such as logging, power line work, etc. While not cheap, they were 1/2 the price of a GM bling Hummer.

So then there shouldn't be a 10% buyers premium anymore, but I doubt that will happen.
