Agreed!!! Have a gooden

Thank you for the feedback! Thank you for your service.

Cool profile pic!

Same with the army. I know this phrase is physically banned now but we were told " Nut to butt. Make your buddy happy"

How many Marines fit in a 7ton? Always 1 more.

@@diltzm you guys called them 7tons?? We called them MTVRs. I remember seeing them uparmored going through fallujah and Ramadi in 05-06. Uparmored meaning any available metal plates being welded together. Lol

terrain management systems still help a lot even if you have lockers

Just like stability management systems on a Ferrari, it makes the capabilities more accessible to the novice.

I have a 1989 Toyota landcruiser with 35’s and lockers I have dust bronco and jeep that where bigger . computer +off road = problems I have seen a lot of computer go out on jeeps off road

Most things can be done by brute force. But we’re not Neanderthals anymore.

Very interesting. I wonder how well the air cooled engine copes with the added heat of turbocharging.

@@Fix_It_Again_Tony that will be interesting to watch and learn. If you don't go too crazy on boost it should be fine.

Thank you for telling us the technical side that is really cool how they put a torque converter on a manual transmission very clever. I like the idea how it has no computers. Nothing but a pain in the ass. When you’re doing serious off Roadin you need things that you can fix yourself.

This is actually a derivative called the "kat2" made for the us military as a pershing 2 tractor, wrecker and i think some other uses. Its got a watercooled v10 and can easily be identified by its grill

@@Fix_It_Again_Tony the 6x6 and 8x8 variants are twinturbo and are running for the last 40+ years so cant be any bad problems there

Thank you for your service and thank you for watching.

Thank You for your Service. Have a Blessed day

Plus they own some nice cars and have a variety of channels

Your wife sounds epic!

Years ago my Corvette Club was invited to tour the "Tank Museum" in Woodside Califonia....The founder imported a SCUD Missle Launcher....When US Customs found the radar & telemetry activated upon arrival into the USA....The political connections and lawyers were deployed to make it happen....I decided I'd never want to have a hobby that required the use of a lawyer....Joked about it to my wife & friends😁

We will have a 10x10 video coming soon.

Everything you just said is badass. Thank you for your service, brother

Semper Fi, loved driving the mtvr when I was in, it's a beast.

I learned on the MTVR, original lvs with the screaming 8v92. As capable as they are it doesn't take much to get them stuck. Also Oshkosh uses that Tak4 suspension in their pierce fire trucks, along with the rear steering from the lvsr and the "command zone" screen in their fire trucks. Although most pierce fire trucks have solid drive/tandem rear axels.

If only I had a few million $ to spare so I could get my own. Let me check my wallet...nope.

@@explorenaked a million? Your a bit over priced. You can get one for 50k to 100k. A 6x6 M35A2 goes for 5k. The 6x6 5 ton for 10 to 20k

@@explorenaked these things are very much not a million dollars lol. used government trucks are notoriously cheap.

GLORIOUS

That all depends on what you have it connected to, and what you program it to do. In our two LMTV troop carriers, the mode button locked the center diff. But you can have it do multiple things (up to three if I remember correctly), as I mentioned, depending on what's wired in. So, theoretically, if you also had lockers on the front and rear diffs (going with the LMTVs I had, but they only had a center diff lock), you would hit mode twice (holding it down on the second click) to lock, we'll go with the rear diff this time, and three times for the front. If the light on the top left of the button turns on, then you did it right lol. It's not nearly as complicated as I've made it sound, I just suck at describing how to do things 🤦🏼😂.

Yeah so true

We hope Andre does not become grasshopper-man or moth-man...

Das hier ist der kat 2, ein abkömmling des 8x8 kat 1

@@the_retag schade, dass die SX serie eingestellt wurde, weil das Verteidigungsministerium zu geizig war. Jetzt is das neue Teil nur noch ein glorifizierter Man TGA

Thank you for the kind words.

Pretty tough to get a JLTV in the civilian market.

@@badgerpa9 Stop by Oshkosh.

@@WillPittenger Been in there, as a system tech years ago, they do not let citizens drive or film in the buildings or vehicles.

Andre fell in love with the 8x8. He may have to buy one. Sell the Buhanka van?

A noob here. Could you please explain in which way one locker may be better than the other? I get why a locking diff is better than an LSD but don't all lockers do the same simple job?

@@ldmtag in terms of which axle is better to lock (talking in regular 4x4 relm here) it's depatable which axle it better to lock, the majority lock the rear first becuase then you don't lose as much maneuverability when steering or have nearly as much conserns with breaking something when getting turning on a bigh traction surface as the front axle. For lockers, you really have 2 types of "locker", one that solidly locks ip the axle and prevents the 2 wheels on that axle from spinning at different rates, and limited slip differentials (lsd's) which limit, but don't stop the wheels turning at different rates (this is what a lot of offroad traction controls try to emulate using the abs system). Hope that makes things clearer. Ask away if you want to know more

@@Nesten321 appreciate you doing a lot of writing but I'm afraid that's not what I asked. As you probably didn't notice I mentioned LSD in my comment. I know what differential lock does, I know there's LSD, and I know there's electronics that brakes the spinning wheel. I even know the correct torque distribution - something most car people get wrong: 50:50 for open diff, dynamic distribution to the wheel with more traction when the diff is locked. What I asked is why the guy chose that specific type of locker. I know what locker does but I don't know what it's made of and how exactly it locks the axles together. That's why I don't know which type of locker is more reliable, operates quicker, can lock at high speeds, etc.

@@ldmtag What probably wasn't clear in my previous comment is that regular locking diffs are prefered for lower speed offroading where as a lsd is prefered for higher speed stuff and performance applications. Either can be tougher in each the application that they are made for.

Also lsds and electronic traction control systems are similar in that they both don't offer perfect 50/50 tourque distribution (think of some high performans awd cars that have a 60/40 power split front to back, i belive that is done with a lsd in the transfer case) (lockers are either open when disengaged or a fixed 50/50 torque split when engauged where as lsds are always active and only limit slip, not prevent it.

Whine...whine...whine...whine...care for some cheese...with you whine...?

@@buckhorncortez Unlike many others, I'm not complaining about the overall delays that are impacting just about everyone. Just asking that Ford honor their original commitment to reservation holders.

Wambulance is on its way. You think Ford doesn’t want to sell everyone a Bronco who wants one?! Geez.

@@grisa12345 Sure they do. Eventually. But until they can build more than can be sold they'd rather placate large volume dealers.

@@MikeJones-bk6sy Dude, get it through your head, it ain't easy for anyone at this moment, they are selling Broncos, how they are doing it is the way they can, asking for more is simply complaining just to complain because literally nobody has it easy, i myself right now should be doing internship and working and studying for school, but guess how hard it is to find a job that will accept you in all the crap that's going on. It's bad in general, at least they make an effort.

"A fortune" would be an understatement, I guess. It's a new truck, they are insanely expensive. And since they didn't get that much more functional or capable, I'd go for something old and cheap if I wanted an ultimate camper mysef.
