Interesting, but does the KM 250 go as fast or faster than the M35A2? Does it have dual-circuit brakes/disk brakes? If so, could it be a viable alternative to retro-fit an M35 with the Kia parts to upgrade to dual-circuit brakes? Certainly shipping a MC and airpak couldn't completely break the bank, could it? Would it mortally offend the delicate sensibilities of the MV purist to upgrade the breaking system of a classic MV with Korean parts in the name of safety and better breaking?
I'm clearly no purist as I'm planning to bob my deuce, but in all honesty, if adding some modern Korean-made parts to make my truck safer and thus more reliable, and the price for said upgrades was right, I'd do it in a heartbeat! But that's me.

I consider myself to be a patriotic American just like everyone else here in the Mighty world of the Steel Soldiers, but it's a different world than it was when the mantra in the U.S. of A. was "Buy American!". China has had an industrial revolution the likes of which the world has never seen, and fueled by the proliferation of modern technology and cheap labor, so as to enable me to have a complete tattoo outfit that if made in the U.S.A. would be upwards of 2-grand and works every bit as well and reliably as it's domestic equivalent for the absurd price of $100 (less the cost of shipping). My tattoo outfit included 9 machines, 3 liners and 6 shaders and came from Dragonhawk Tattoo through ebay in case any other ink-addicts here are curious. And yes, you read right. The entire tattoo outfit came from China and cost about $100. After it was ordered, I had it in my hot little ink-slinging hands in 4 days! I kid you not, 4 days, from China!
