Saw this on the highway on our way to Florida earlier this year..excellent looking!!!

What....you didn't pull him over and ask him for a closer look!!!!! Derek, you disappoint me...

we were speeding like crazy to try and catch him, then he went left when we needed to go right.. Julie was driving and I was hangin out the sun rof trying to get a good shot of the truck.. it was quite the scene!

You needed a driver with some enthusiasm...you should have let Anthony drive...he would have caught up to that truck....

now that is funny....what a great looking truck, the funny thing is that it was really only us, the canucks, that were trying to catch it...guess it is a regular thing for the rest of the drivers to see...

Nice looking truck, but I don't think that's a HMMWV. To me, it looks like a small category one MRAP (Mine Resistant Ambush Protected) truck. Some quick searching turned up this:



The Oshkosh M-ATV. This is destined to become the HMMWV replacement in the near future. That one you saw was probably heading overseas to Afghanistan, they just introduced them into in-field service early this year.

And almost a half million a pop (more with the leather seats).
