If my township gets one of those, I will take it as a challenge take it out.
I presume you mean take it out for a drive. It would be very useful to get a copy of the keys and know where it is parked, or just know how to get it running if need be, and even get some training on driving it. You never know when some emergency might happen and you and your fellow residents would have to help out by moving the vehicle to a safe location, or using it to evacuate or protect citizens. Kind of like the people who took the school buses to help evacuate their neighbors in New Orleans.
Lots of former military hardware is being given to local towns for their use. Some of it could be very useful in a time of emergency, and can be used by local community emergency management groups. The more of it that is spread around the country the better. You never know where a storm or other emergency could occur, and military vehicles could be useful.
