    its called a piece of crap. i mean a caspir. its not a military vehicle. its south african and we use it for our client vehicle and as a sort of "heavy hate truck". its made for drivin through mine fields. its slow as balls, tops out at about 50km/h on a good day when venus is in line with the moon and on the slightest incline forget about it. the a/c doesnt work and we dont usually use them unless were on a motorcade in which we have clients. we usually have factory b6 armored 4-door ford f350's with armored gun tubs in the bed and more comm equipment then you can really shake a stick at. we've got some other smaller faster armored "purpose built" trucks like the puma and the mamba but in the long run, they are all mechanical nightmares, never work properly and you'll get smoked in one of them just about as fast as you will in anything else.

    It's good to see you're working with some older guys that look like they got some common sense and will keep you in line.

    Yea, I know that. But just because they're older they got to have more common sense.

    Chris, man, can you see your reflection in a mirror? If you can, can you see through it or is it sort of wavy like you're under water? I think your twin just phased in from an alternate universe. I've seen about 3 threads just now where someone said "Did you read the thread?" and Markus has been posting pics from his last job since he got here, and pics of him blowing up his jet chip with some serious armament, and those pics where the regular army had his unit under watch with a tank while that convoy went by, and, and,...
