now buying one of the surplus armored Army/Marine Corps Humvees would be excellent!

A buddy of mine bought one...camo paint job and all, for under $20K.

His only problem is maintenance...but it's cool when it actually runs.

That's really a shame they're dropping the H1 when they FINALLY got it right. The new model has the better diesel engine, a much better transmission (Allison) and is basically the same type drive line as used in GM's "Work Horse" chassis that is built for motor homes. The darn thing ought to be really reliable, only problem is the price. Yeow! $$$$$$$$$$$$

That one must have really been beat all to snot, 'cause the Army has them torn down and rebuilt, because they need all they can get.
