There are a lot of hard places to whack your head; make sure you're wearing a Kevlar.

Ride in one before cutting a check. The seats are 2 X 6s wrapped in canvas.

I put something in the neighborhood of 80K miles on ambulance edition HMMWVs during my time in. They really are terrible on road and no place I'd want to have to spend my drive time now.

That said, if I had disposible income for a woods toy I'd love to have one.

Tow vehicle.

I mean, the thing is as wide as a car hauler. No worries about snagging things, anywhere the truck can go the trailer can go too.

There are much better driving, more comfortable,more powerful,better handling,more efficient vehicles to tow with. These things can barely move and stop their own weight. I recall the NA diesels had 180hp and 300lbft in a 6000lb vehicle.

Yeah. That's why we want to see what 700hp will do to one.
