If ya like that you'll love this: A buddy has a deuce that he's putting a quad .50 cal. on. Yep, four .50's with the anti-aircraft mount just like out of Waterworld. Wish it was ready for this Friday's machine-gun shoot. Then again, at almost $1 a round, I wouldn't want to buy the ammo for it!
Those trucks are a great value for the money, but they are VERY noisy and ride like a tank.
HHMMmmmmmm! A tank! now theres a go anywhere machine.Quote:

Yep they are kinda noisy. Rode in them quite a bit at CAX in 29 Stumps.
Semper Fi:flame2: :bomb:
Well if ya want a tank the same guy has one for sale. It's an M26 Pershing with a Sherman turret (no gun) and a Ford diesel truck engine for power. Reportedly it'll go about 15MPH but I haven't seen it move since he got the thing several years ago. It can be yours for only $34K plus shipping! What a bargain, eh? :freek:
I've read on one website (about 3 years ago) that Hummers were not allowed to be resold by the military... even after the combat damage - there was a picture of front end of the car intact with rear missing completely (mine ?) so they said even that piece is not for sale just for illustration.
Go figure ?
The military Humvees are out there, just in few numbers and by some arcane process. It's like trying to get a real live GE mini-gun. There are only 18 registered weapons in the country and I just heard today that three are for sale. So if you've got about $150K and like to burn insane amounts of ammo...
