If that is a CUCV 2 then there are CUCV 3's too they have a beautiful one at the Viginia Museum of Military Vehicles in a contact truck configuration with a duramax diesel and it looked great.

I've seen a new 2004 Duramax Crew Cab 'CUCV' but one that was quote unquote 'purposely rolled' so that the guys could get parts off of it for their own rigs...At any rate will try to get some pics but they are still making/ordering them.

There are CUCVII and maybe CUCVIII then GM changed the name to LSSV. Here is a link to the TM's for these.

They used to have pictures on the GM web site but I can't find any right now. If you find any you like you better download them because they change this site all of the time.

Something i picked up alone the way.

I dug these up on the above site. Most of the pic links are dead, but the spec sheet are still there.

I am beginning to think there are two model versions of the CUCVII then they changed the name to LSSV. They seem to be making a few of these every year. I don't think our gov is buying very many of them though. I did see a French version of the TM. I found this quote on one page:

As of January 1999, General Motors is on contract with the US Army�s Tank-Automotive Command (TACOM) for a 5-year supply of CUCV-IIs and next generation LSSVs vehicles to the US Air Force.
All of this pics came from pages that called them CUCV II's, but as you move through the time line in 2004 the home page calls them LSSV's but links back to the same spec pages that were made in 2001.

man those look great the one i saw was the older square body style. Does anyone know where to buy these newer ones? I want one of the older body style burbans, that is if they exist. Anyone? The new Lssv reg cab pickups are really cool looking, think theres any of those around? im guessing if there is they are in the 50 thousand dollar range.
