Are M113s and M114s related?

Getting back to the original question of the M113 and the M114 being related..............they are!

Both are always owned by someone with copious amounts of MONEY.
These things do seem to find a way into your wallet :lol: The brighter side is that the M114 is small enough to easily move and store, and they have good curb appeal.

Bill from Idaho have you ever thought about that people who own M114's or any other piece of armor might make sacrifices in order to be able to afford one? I do not have a copious amount of money and own two. Yes it takes money to own one but I have less money in mine than I would have in say a new pickup. Plus the M114's are not depreciating. I would love to own a new truck, but armor to me is much more fun. It seems that in a lot of posts on this site that there is a tone of jealousness of people who have things that others may not be able to afford. I learned at a very young age in this hobby that there is always going to be someone with more money and better toys than me. The key to military vehicles is to enjoy what you have and maybe someday get lucky enough to be in the right place at the right time and be able to get the vehicle that you have been seeking. Just my two cents worth.

lilreddodge,
Lets see some more pics! I am jealous of your armor. I went the big pickup route (02 F350 Crew Cab), it keeps the wife happier than a wonderful piece of green iron would!

Nice work there lilreddodge 8) The Dodge RT SE Challenger you mentioned brought back memories. My grandmother worked in dashboard assembly and being an employee, was able to walk her red '70 R/T SE Charger through the assembly process :D For some reason she picked the 440 Magnum over the 426 Hemi, when asked why...just said she liked the 440 :roll:
