If that thing broke down near the Mansfield jetties, it would cost you big time to get it back to the pavement. _________________ E Pluribus Unum |

| Hopefully it wouldn't break down - they are somewhat more durable than the average truck though. Would take a D-6 to tow it back. |

There was a 1968 Mercedes Benz Unimog for sale at an auction recently...3' of ground clearance, SERIOUS 4X4...diesel engine.
I wanted to buy it so bad, and it sold for $11K...but I could not.
Looked like this one:

If that is the case, it might be a perfect PINS truck. Hey Billy - time to come out of retirement. Might be pretty hard to a get a 6x6 stuck. If to badly stuck it would make a pretty good sized fish attractor. |

Some have these big balloon tires for the desert - that plus 6 wheel drive would be pretty hard to get stuck as long as the engine kept running.
Think of the fish spotting from so high up. |

Still can't believe you would pass that up Bighead!!! But the best PINS truck you could have is the one you don't have to clean or pay for. _________________ Stinger-A |

| That just might be the ultimate vehicle for fishing PINS. I stand IMPRESSED. I do wish I had an extra 12K at this time and I would get it. What a vehicle for Sharkathon!!! |
