Default Seen today

This morning at 7:00 AM on the way to work I saw 3 Hummers on a flatbead. They were on the eastbound 401 between Port Hope and Newcastle. It looked as though they were armoured and were painted desert tan. I wonder where they were off to?

They were obviously American, perhaps on their way up to Pet for either exercise or evaluation? I don't think we have any of these in our inventory, but maybe one of our serving members could confirm?

Curiouser and curiouser...

Sounds the same as this load I saw at Estevan, Sask in 2004. See this thread.
