I tried to upload some Pictures of the Canada G-wagon in combat, but kept crashing on me. any help out there.

I just returned from a deployment which included some time in Kandahar. Never did get around to taking a picture, though. Those G-Wagons definitely had me drooling - almost as much as the many variations of D110 (of which I did get pics :drool: ). A great looking and capable vehicle - as with Land Rover, it sucks (at least for our community) that Mercedes doesn't import the "working class" vehicles to the US market. At least in Canada you might be able to get an ex-defense vehicle someday.

Yea, but how much does one cost?

for the record, I'm pretty sure I would take the rubicon + the cash difference, over the g-wagon (which is not to say I don't like the g-wagons, because I do...I just don't like the $$$).

We (Canada's DND) paid about $150K plus another $100K each for the ones that got the extra armor. Had to buy about 500 to get that price though.

They say a base mil spec version is $44,000 but I guess we got the leather.

At risk of participating in the whole "My dad can beat up your Dad" argument, I have found video proof that g-wagens are pretty tough. Try this with a Hummer.

Yea, but most people can either dream about a G-wagon, or drive a rubicon (or FJC, or taco, or 80 series, or, or, or....).

Like it or not, money matters. :sombrero:
