We did not have the FLU419 SEE for very long (perhaps 2013) and wanted to give him a try.
We drove out of town to dig in the area.
It did not take long, the neighbor or the owner of the forest passing by.
He was really upset and we had to leave before we really started.

You´r right, its a nice M35 we already thought about it but about 10 votes missing.
That's why..........vote for Migginsbros Freightliner FLU419 Unimog SEE

 

[Scar59]

The M936 Wrecker is waiting for some work and a couple more votes. We are really impressed with the number of votes
it got early on. Thanks for all the support. We needed the lift... get it, "lift".

That's called "Trespassing" here in the States QUOTE]

"And lead us not into temptation" comes to mind here

Chaplain, I love your trailer. It's Old School from top to bottom. The wooden interior would make it a very cool camper. Anyway if you ever decide to part with her, PM me first. I just might wander down to Texas and buy that M275A2, and bring that trailer home.

Short video from the passenger seat of the Flu419 SEE.

For highway use we attach the selfmade loader teeth protection with flags.

It´s not easy to get the feeling to operate the backhoe especialy to unlatch the boom.
But even the young operator learned quickly.

Thank you. She is unique.

We had considered modifying the 220KAK into an "rolling palace" complete with windows, RV-type entry door(s), and all the comforts of a travel trailer. However, once we realized that we'd be butchering what may well be the last of her species, we have decided to keep her as original as practical - WITH safety grades, and restorative paint, etc..

To deploy her as a camping/bug-out-ready toter is now the plan. She's got lots of room to bed down inside if we're "on the run", yet carrying capacity for just about everything including kayaks and ATV's.

The 220KAK has a name as well!
We call her THE FOLLOWER.

All of our MV's have faith-based names:

Our DEUCE was our "first born" into the motor pool. We christened it THE ARK... Our original "bug-out" vehicle. We thought that name summed up her secondary purpose as a vehicle for surviving a "world class" catastrophe with our household of (at the time we got her) two adults, a teenager, and 6 dogs & 8 cats. (We're now just 2 adults, 4 dogs and 2 cats.)

Next came the M105 trailer. She's called THE RAINBOW. If you check out the Biblical story of Noah and the Ark, it was the RAINBOW that followed that epic event - a sign of God's promise to never again destroy the earth by flood. (Please note, HE never ruled out using FIRE next time.) For our purposes, THE RAINBOW will indeed be right behind THE ARK if we ever necessarily bug-out.

Our third MV was the 220KAK. And, envisioning we'd be acquiring a tow vehicle, we named her THE FOLLOWER.... and predetermined the tow vehicle's name to be THE SHEPHERD. Hence, THE SHEPHERD shall "lead" THE FOLLOWER. ... and we now have the XM818 as that tow vehicle.
