Administrators Eric Posted August 1, 2021 Author Administrators Share Posted August 1, 2021 Ah, the good ole Mail Jeep. How much of your life got delivered by one of these? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Eric Posted August 1, 2021 Author Administrators Share Posted August 1, 2021 There must have still been some of these on the road when I was a kid, but I don't remember them. It is a Jeep FJ Fleetvan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Eric Posted August 1, 2021 Author Administrators Share Posted August 1, 2021 Well, that's a good start, but someone is going to have to spell me for a while. I'm going to bed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DWARREN123 Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 The military Jeep was one heck of a vehicle. It was basic/simple and would do many jobs other vehicles could not do. I have been on them with M-60 machine guns (Recon Jeeps) and 106 Recoiless Rifles (ie tank killers). I loved the older Jeeps. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crockett Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 I just realized that I was never into off-roading. All my trucks had and have 4WD, but I didn't even try to go anywhere. Around my neck every piece of land is owned by somebody and park rangers will kick you out if you get off track. Florida is becoming very crowded. We have some events for mudding etc, but I hate getting dirty or scratching up my vehicles, so that ain't gonna happen. If my HOA wouldn't excluded them, I'd get a deuce and a half, just to piss off some liberals down the road. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cougar_ml Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 6 minutes ago, Eric said: I would love to have that HMMWV 6x6. It's not actually related to the HMMWV. It's an experimental vehicle based on the M151. Basically they had a big stockpile of parts and wanted to see if they could make something usable from them. Late 80's early 90's I think. Anyway, that one was a barn find. Something around 60 of them were made for trials, but didn't get adopted by anyone, so most were sold off to South America somewhere. It's called the Alley Cat. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was smaller in the other pic and I'm not wearing my glasses. I would love to have a 6x6 HMMWV though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think they ever made a HMMWV 6x6. If they did, I never saw one. An Israeli company once made a bolt-on 6x6 conversion for them though.
