    CUCV camo pattern

    okay, sorry to drag this back up, but is that the only camo pattern the military used on these trucks? The truck i looked up on GL had the same patttern with green, dark grey and tan, whereas i think the brown would look better in place of the tan. The pattern is kinda meh to me too. Im partial...

    hmmm, what can i expect on the snow and ice with the limited slip in front? And its clutch driven? I heard those do wear fast... Maybe i would be better off going open and then throwing something in if i wanted it.

    m1008 or m1028?

    Ive been killing myself looking for a 28 but i realize theres probably more 08s out there. I really just wanted the 28 because i figure if i spent the money, i may as well get the limited slip. My questions are, does the limited slip really make a difference? Id be driving it in snow, sand and...
