I drove a Hummer (Army kind) in Desert Storm...man, that was a trip driving on sandy roads...and fast. My CSM was riding along and he didn't mind me driving fast...although I had to watch out for those blasted camels! LoL For some reason, they don't want to move...

now buying one of the surplus armored Army/Marine Corps Humvees would be excellent!
"Can I get a 50 cal?" LOL

Since you raised the opportunity:

How are Humvees on maintenance/readiness rate?

Always seemed to me that there was too much technology for the purpose...of course, I'd happily invest in a brand new '41 MB or even the RVN era A1.
