New Heavy Highway Hauler for the Army

[Grant Bowker]

It did look like a lovely new toy when I saw it. A few things strike me about it. I hope no-one trained in the "knock trees over with the bumper" school of driving gets their hands on it, that bumper that folds as the hood opens looks like a pretzel waiting to happen. It also seems funny to paint it "hide it green" and put "look at me" strobes on it. The colour coded air lines at the back of the cab stood out like a sore..... perhaps a coat of mud will tone them down.

More seriously, they don't look like they were built as tactical trucks and if they are meant as highway haulers painting them alnost any other colour would have helped all the other idiots on the road to see them and not get run over as they do somthing stupid the truck driver doesn't have time to react to.
