    Need some clarification on M880 Camo Pattern

    Ok, Yes, I prefere the Merdc scheme, for me it has proven to be better than the 383 scheme, not only in South Korea! In my 27 years of ownership My Dodge has seen some other colors as wel, But I always missed the original color! (Merdc winter scheme)

    Need some clarification on M880 Camo Pattern

    I completely agree with what you say, I own a M-884 in winter scheme, and I noticed that if you put a 383camo and a Merdc (winter scheme) together and have a look at them in the twilight, you'll still see the 383, and you hardly see the one in Merdc.[thumbzup] and If I'm correct one of the...

    Need some clarification on M880 Camo Pattern

    I don't know if you know, and I don't know if the US Army has the same regulations, but with the NATO 3 color camo you also have a desert and winter option. At least the Geman and Dutch army has regulations that if they go desert, they replace the green part of the 3 color camo with tan, and for...

    Need some clarification on M880 Camo Pattern

    Question to all ambulance owners.

    I find that the bed takes up so much camperspace, it's a pity. I can get a s-250, but that's way too small for my likings, I can't even sleep in it, too long.(me than, that is). but I might come up with a other solution.

    Question to all ambulance owners.

    Hello all ambulance owners,on a M-880base or W-400 or so, Do you have problems with the flexing of the chassis? since the ambu body builder fixed the box to the cab, and the cowling to the top of the front windshield, one should think that if you go off road with it, cracks would appear in the...
