30 or more years ago it was deuce & a half with a set of quad 50's in the back, very effective.

A deuce and a half was not powerful enough, no acceleration, no power steering and it could not carry enough ammunition for the quad mount. Our quads also had an M60 on a pedestal behind the cab to cover the road to the front before the quad could be brought into the fight.
