    Advantage of a CUCV over Civilian truck

    I was thinking about a CUCV but I;m not sure if it will do much more than my Silverado. What advantage does the CUCV have over a civilian truck. Other than diesel? I just don't know if its worth it to buy one when I have a good truck already.

    tire bolts not coming off

    I tried with an impact wrench but I dont think the on board tanks supply enough air. Then I tried the chrowbar and still wouldnt come off. I also put on some WD40. My front driverside tire is flat which is why I'm replacing it with the spare. Any suggestions?
