What's the coolest ex-Military Truck to Own?
|
There are so many to choose from, from all those WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam, and even some modern ones that are retiring now. If you were going to get one of these trucks, jeeps or hummers, what would it be? Tanks are not released anymore. Additional Details MP US Army, The DUKW is definitely one of the standouts. I am looking for one. Fixer-upers start around $3k, but a working on will start around $50. A USCG version you see for the Duck Tours average about $150k.
The Deucenahalf is a great contender because they are the cheapest to get into right now. Most can be picked up at Government Auction between $500 and $1k. Ebay start around $1.5k, and top off at $7k.
The ole stand by Jeeps are really cool, but all the military ones, restored pick up around $15k. The old civi done versions, or even the CJ-2's'3' and 5' are either really junky finds, or nice for around $4k.
The original H1 Military version, they start around $25k, and offen need new motors and trannys. Expensive...

No bridge, who needs a stinking bridge.
Time to come in off the lake because the party's over, just drive on home.

I'd go for the Leo 2 main battle tank, oh that's not retired. Ok Leo 1 until the Leo 2 is out of service.
Or maybe one of those 8 wheeled amphibious APCs like the LAVIII, ASLAV, Stryker. Oh wait those are not retired yet either. |

Gotta have more explosions!

An ex-military Land Rover would be nice, maybe even the long range patrol variety without any form of roofing or canopy. It'd be awesome to take it on a road trip. I'd have to get goggles or something for the wind, but I'd kill my own grandmother to take one on a spin.
As cool as trucks are, I don't think one would fit in my car bay, not to mention I don't need the carrying space. |

Coolest? - or maybe most practical? M151 A3 with ROPS. X- Canadian models coming in as street legal in some states. St. Louis(?) re-builder getting some street legal from US Army surplus, has to add ROPS, street bumpers, catalytic converter. |
