don't mind if I'm sometimes silly from time to time like right now: it might be a bit of puzzle-like logistic issue but if you don't have enough floor space for the m131a in the garage then assuming it didn't have any hardtop on you could fold down the windshield and raise that thing up into the...
I was a bit curious about this and I had to go see what a quick web search would do..
https://tanks-encyclopedia.com/coldwar-us-am-general-xm966-hmmwv-prototype-2/
seem to be the only positive reference to an aircooled 6.6l I could find now
funny enough the web search also pointed back to...
"climb the curb"? hold my bottle, I'll show you a trail rated honda civic happily bouncing over a rampless sidewalk curb!
(sorry if I had to be a bit silly about very meaningless badges hehehehehe)
I recall when the jeep liberty was first coming out and even some magazines soon ran a test comparing it to a wrangler (and I think cherokee too or was that only the grand cherokee left by then?) still being more or less available to purchase too, needless to say I recall that the liberty had...
have heard a bit about all-pink rovers before but this is the first video-not-photos I have seen now tho
nice walkaround yeah
just a nice simple offroad drive-around without any "american rednecks" effects to mess up the video plot unlike too many other videos
and now this one is an old...
@Guyfang that..just..umm..well..geeze..I think I'm speechless
all I can say now is: to knowingly steal fuel is one thing but to put in wrong fuel without even knowing it is something else!
(and p.s it gets more weird when you find out someone poured diesel into the def tank or def into the...
completely unrelated but this talk about gas trucks reminds me of a silly yet real small story from somewhere in uk..I found it in a 'free' scanned-online-for-archival older magazine that I can't recall the name of now
lorry was seemingly using a lot of gas so everyone (especially boss) agreed...
@Eric isley not being openly rude but you need to not post the exact same thing more than once, there is already this for discussions to happen in indeed
btw I know they were very unlikely to ever be found anywhere related to the military but I'll still point out that the 'pontoon' mercedes (180d or 190d, I don't recall which this specifically was now) in the early type of long rally was once remarked by someone as "put a brick on the accelerator...
@msgjd hmm you had me wondering, I had to go try some translations just for fun and umm well yeah I mean I don't know if I should be posting this kind of thing here right now or not .. but anyhow I came up with this 'friendly' swearing that seem easy for an english person to speak;
senhora...
be glad that a m274 can't buck you unlike a real mule?
sorry I just had to say that here didn't I??? hehehe!
(yes this reply was partially meant for msgjd too)
@teletech I guess you need to try drive a vintage vw bus? then again they only had like 20-40hp under that rear access panel so you'll likely have the "same problem" with sand trucks passing you while you're driving one of these bus too ;-)
@msgjd sometimes some people just don't know any better and unfortunate they don't quite help our reputations that way otherwise (regarding working winch or usable tanks)
on the other hand there are these kind of people that refuse to sell something without having 'really gone over it with a...
well @Blownaway I'm not sure which auction this is but in the first place you should read the bidding rules as it likely would mention something there. I know at least one non-military auction had the wording to effect of "must be cleared within xxx days, anything yet left behind will be...
only finally looked at this thread now, and yeah I did put my vote in too
and hey @Guyfang I don't mean to be silly but I see a funny loophole that he might not like hehehe
*proceeds to lightly buck at @kendelrio then scoots off chuckling to myself*
@GeneralDisorder I know you weren't talking about that but in a book I have about trucking humour (real stories nevertheless) he talked about the old tractors that didn't have airbag suspension so you had to practically hang off the steering wheel itself every time you hit a bump. "nothing like...
@UNIMOG-GUY yeah I might have to say that for small diesels vw and toyota are probably the first choices (mind you I didn't mention toyota before because I don't know how well it would shoe in physically beside that I rarely seem to have ever heard of toyota engines in non-toyota vehicles as far...
