After seeing a trip report from a guy with a van and a military trailer, I think the M932 and trailer would out perform the M934 with higher center gravity. But I don't think I want to manage a huge truck plus a trailer. The trade off of limiting where to go is more appealing. As insane as it...

I was 10,000 lbs off :D Still, a difference of 7,800 lbs.

The figures include the weight of what was being towed and transported (van box), not the GVW. First trip: M934A1 van/shop unit 10,000 lbs M925A1 curb weight 22,750 lbs (in tow) Total weight 33,750 lbs Second trip: MK16 curb weight 40,550 lbs (in tow)

One run from Las Vegas to Phoenix the M934A2 was transporting 32,750 lbs and traveling 8 MPH. The other run a M923A2 transported 17,800 lbs more and drove ~27 MPH faster. What is interesting is the M934A2 has more power and had a much lighter load to transport, yet traveled immensely slower. At...

I like the size of it from the picture. What did you think of it? The perspective is much bigger than an already big truck :D It would be fun to see one. Plan B is nearby, I've been thinking about going down there. The downsides that have been mentioned might be worth the trade-off. Namely the...

Sounds like you found a way to find the crawl limits on an obstacle with finesse. What do you think about the van part of the truck?

That vid in your link puts some perspective on these trucks off-road that I haven't watched in a vid before. Your truck had some immensly low gears. Is it a manual? That thing could crawl something serious. The setup Valence had is appealing. Those cargo truck beds are spacious. The close-up...

I'll keep that in mind. The idea of having a trailer and cargo truck is big. Plenty of room to haul fuel barrels, generator, water tank(s), recovery gear, traction to cross deep questionable washouts and a free-weight set separate from the living and work quarters. The offroading would be to get...

The M934A2 is attractive for the real-estate and price (and not limited to), but it may not be as mobile in the rough country as I need it to be. You make a great point about getting stuck. That will be a problem not having a recovery method. Maybe jacks and blocks would help in some cases. In...

Sounds like there would be a trade off in living and office space vs. off-road capability. I dug up this Moab run with the tractor supporting what I hear you say. This guy makes it look easy with his driving skills. Watching him drive up is so awesome, like the truck is hardly phased. There is...

I'm researching the M934A2 as a camper and want the big truck for its value and off-road capabilities (but not limited to). I'm looking to find out how much the box on the back reduces its off-road capabilities by asking those in the know to compare it with something concrete, like this youtube...
