Don't be alarmed, A friend just had his annual Pinz/Mog gathering. I was the only odd man out with a deuce!

RE: Invasion
We suffered the same fate at the Florida Roundup. Seems the word eurotrash was spoken lovingly LOL. I have to say the many Pinz's and he Mog were quite capable but I was able to save face with the American Iron by freeing all the stuck trucks. I have new respect for the Pinzgauers!

RE: Invasion
Will,
Nice pics! Some of that European iron is interesting. Did you get any pics with your deuce? I've never seen the size comparison. See a lot of the Pinz's etc for sale on e-bay, though.

RE: Invasion
The big green Mog in the 1st pic it about 6 in shorter at the bed and 4 feet shorter in length. It has 14.50 X20 Conti's under it. That was the biddest truck there. Next Saturday, the City of Irwindale is having a Veterans Memorial dedication. They are asking for 30 vehicles, they don't care what nationality, they just want a BIG turn out. There should be more Euro stuff there, i'll see if I can snap a pic for comparison. BTW, the big green one has a 6 cyl, naturally asperated diesel in it. 59 MPH @ 3300 RPM! I thought a deuce was a screamer.

If you gents ever get a chance, you are welcome to the biggest European invasion in August...Northwest Mogfest. We usually have a turnout of 75-100 vehicles including Mogs, Pinzgauers, Halflingers, Volvo's, and VW's. It's the largest Mog event and a lot of fun.
www.northwestmogfest.com
As for the size of a Mog next to a deuce, my U1300L measures 17.5' long, 7.75' wide, and 9' tall. It's almost as big as a deuce but with more creature comforts and a better turning radius.

Here is another image showing Mike's Unimog with a deuce, which reminds me, I have to get you (Mike) the pictures from Eureka...
What is the payload capacity of the 1300L?

Great pics! My friend has a hard-on for the Unimogs, they're nice vehicles, but I dont want one for the fact that I like US MVs too much!
Check out the pics of my Unimog:

IMO, European mv's are far superior in comfort and engineering than US mv's. I've owned both.

I operated a Mog-based Freightliner SEE (Small Emplacement Excavator) for my Guard unit. It was very difficult for my long legs to run the clutch, especially when using the front bucket to load a dump truck. I don't think they build ANY mv with anyone over 6'2" in mind.

European Invasion
Well my Pinzgauer has ben up to 96kmh or up to 56mph on my gps, and thats not necessarily going down hill either slight upgrade I can hold it or accelerate, most of the 4x4's can do inexcess of 70mph and a few custom built 6x6's can do 70mph or better too.
