    I'm a medic in a Charlie Med unit. My platoon operates the FLAs. They have their issues but are pretty useful as an Ambulance

    Amazing, this one left its mark just like the Jeep did, even thought the Jeep means more for just being an important part of winning the WWII, but the Humvee becoming the hummer a best seller full size SUV, and even now it’s making its comeback as an EV, just amazing piece of machinery, and I guess the remaining ones still on the field will be serving for some more years. As for the new Oshkosh seems to be a very good replacement. I just don’t think there’s room for a civilian version.

    ****it’s a great all-round ultility vehicle……just have to bolt on some v-shaped IED explosives force dispersal and protection device to the underneath of the car, abit more seat protection, and it’s good to keep going for the next 25 years!!!…..these armor should be bolt-ons, and easily removable for saving weight and gas, for normal, non-combat area use*****

      Why don’t they just immediately switch to the JLTV if it’s much better than the humvee
