8x8 arb truck

Mmmmm.... Unimogs!

 

 

 

Oh wait, do you mean the MAN KAT? The one that's stuck?!

 

 

 

Here's another short clip of one getting stuck (at about 4.00) on a hill that a mog has just fled up without any bother. You'll have to excuse the baby mog not making it, but in it's defense it is less than half the size and the best part of 40 years old...

 

 

 

Great vid!! I wouldn't say I was a fan of any one over any other.... I want them all!

 

Was watching the vid and wifey looking over my shoulder, she kept saying "is something exciting going to happen?" I just gave her the 'are we watching different videos?' look. She was not impressed but it wasn't as bad as last week when she was telling me about some sad-sack at her work. My response "don't go into too much detail, I'm not really interested" really didn't go down well. I only meant to think it, but it came out loud, that keeps happening!

Absolutely class, beer came out of my nose I was laughing so hard. Wife and mother in law asking what's so funny...

That happens in my house as well, often find myself saying things that were ment to stay in my head!

Dammit! Just read yours and roared!

 

She asked what I was laughing at.....

 

Why didn't I just say 'a joke' instead of telling her the truth???

 

Think I may have instigated another 2 hours of stern silence......

 

(Ha, bliss!)

I see quite a few of these trucks getting used in anger on my travels. I ride to Morocco every October to ride to the desert, I usually see a few on my travels. The Europeans are big into them.

 

Have a wee peep at 7 mins and 15secs to see one being used in anger albeit short,whilst we were there also, in the feche-feche not far from Ramlia Maroc...traffic in the middle of nowhere lol

 

Nice to see them being used other than in trials but for traveling!

 

(EDC means 'Team Of Goats' in French as we're all that stupid and behave just like..erm...a herd of goats....)
