Actually, it's fairly fun to drive. It uses the same Caterpillar powerpack as the FMTV cargo truck, so it's relatively quiet and doesn't put out much visible exhaust (nice for setting up ambushes and sneaking up around corners on snipers).

Just try to stay out of deep sand and mud.

So in other words it's useless as a combat vehicle? Maybe you need to read up on why the Russian T-34 was so successful in the snow and mud compared to the German Tiger.
