Of alll the things I've seen in civilian hands, never seen an M88 out of the military.

When I went and picked up my windshields earlier this year the gentleman I bought them from had one in his front yard (Salisbury, NC). REALLY nice lawn ornament.

I'd rather have the M51 myself, course I always like BIGGER armor over standard BIG armor. The M51 was built on the HUGE M103 heavy tank chassis while the M88 was built on the M48/60 series.

Here's a couple pics of the M51, one of them showing it parked next to a full-size M48A3 during the Vietnam War.

say that 5 time fast!

Those things are awesome! Sure could use one for logging! Can you image the ruts(and damage) they would leave in the lawn? :drool:
