"Go crazy..??"

"Don't mind if I do!"

LOL

On topic, I love the truck that they have, if only it was a Dodge instead of Ford. Oh well.

The last Pic is An ACMAT..the Wing used these for their SRV's before the Fords.

The ARW hastily bought Land rover defender 90s when they got deployed to Liberia as the F-350s hadn't arrived in time.(picture courtesy of Apod on Mp.net)

My husband still wants a Defender 110 or a 90. I'll have to make sure he sees this when he gets back.

Irish, do you know if they are replacing the AUG with another rifle, it's been mentioned on IMO a few times that the HK416 is going to replace it....true or not?:uhh:

Not True....they're not going to replace a perfectly good Rifle for a long time to come...
