Sure they would, Eagle Eye:

The 113s only have to travel as fast as the slowest truck.

Already up-armored and up-gunned. With a .50 in the cupola
and two other firing points for M-60s or M-249s. Lots of room for ammo too.

Jack.

Having many miles of convoy time in 113s and dozens of convoys in Iraq, I say it is not a good idea.

Too slow. Too hard to keep them running.

Armored cars, yes. And there are many varieties already in our inventory and available world wide.
