    CUCV vs excursion, F350, or other pick up for bug out and snow vehicle.

    How did you mount the 100 gallon tank? I was thinking the Deuce will go through more snow due to 6 wheel drive. I have gotten a chevy 4x4 with larger tires stuck in a few inches of snow. Same for other trucks. I was hopeing that the Deuce would have a slight advantage. It would also haul me and...

    M35A2 v A3v H1 V Suburban v Excursion in deep snow and mud?

    How much are chaines? How fast can you go with them? Will a Deuce with chaines and regular tires go better than one with super singles? Can you do 2 feet of snow with an A2 with regular tires?

    M35A2 v A3v H1 V Suburban v Excursion in deep snow and mud?

    I think most trucks suck in the snow. My buddies F150 with larger tires doesnt seem to have enough rear weight. The 2010 escaldes and suburbans dont look like they have enough ground clearance to save teir life. I just took an S10 blazer with really good snow tires and was stuck in 6-8 inches of...

    Reliability of a deuce vs a 1980's suburban or F350?

    Where can I get a Deuce other than ebay? They are selling rotted ones for five grand.

Whats the model number for the one with the camper back and what was this camper back used...

    Which trailer should I get? How to mount fuel tank? Where to buy?

    I want a trailer that any vehicle including a deuce can pull. Im guessing the used military trailers are super heavy duty and cheap. Do any of them float? Is it safe to mount some type of tank to hold fuel? I was thinking a plastic residential fuel oil tank. Not sure how safe or legal this is...

    M35A2 v A3v H1 V Suburban v Excursion in deep snow and mud?

    Do all the wheels turn all the time on the m35A2? Which would be better in the mud and snow if the A2 and A3 had the same tires.

    M35A2 v A3v H1 V Suburban v Excursion in deep snow and mud?

    How good is the Deuce in deep snow, mud, and off road? What would win if you tested the M35A2 and A3 side by side? How about the Deuce vs a Chevy Suburban, Ford Excursion, Hummer H1, or Jeep cherokee? How deep of snow can these get through? Im wondering if this would go up the high way through...

    How many miles is an M35A2 and A3 good for?

    How many miles is a M35A2 and A3 good for before you need to replace or rebuild the engine, transmission, suspension, etc? I was worried becuase I see many that have so few miles. It seems like motors are rebuilt at 10k miles... If I drove one once a week 200 miles would it hold up?

    CUCV vs excursion, F350, or other pick up for bug out and snow vehicle.

    I have a cabin about 45 miles away. Do they make a small fuel tanker built into a trailer that the deuce can pull? If not maybe I can mount some type of a cheap plastic house type heater oil holder in the bed of the deuce. Im thinking the camper back is the way to go. How many adult sized...

    CUCV vs excursion, F350, or other pick up for bug out and snow vehicle.

    19 Kilo, how much was the back that you put on there? Are deuces made like that or is it custom? How steep and long of a hill would you need to push start a m35a2? Im going to do some more research and then post something in the Deuce form about this.
