give our troops the tools they need to get the job done.Much of the job cannot be done buttoned up inside an air conditioned bullet proof SUV.
Why not give them purpose-built wheeled armored vehicles like ASV's, Dingoes, Dragoons, Simbas, Scarabs and RG-31's?
I have no problem with any of those suggestions provided maintenance can be maintained. No doubt certain of these vehicles have benefits over the humvee and cost a heck of a lot less than a Stryker. I'd also suggest putting some more tanks back into Iraq.
