My friend just bought this on Ebay.

I saw it in person yesterday and OMG it is the coolest vehicle I have ever seen.:bowdown:

But it is a lot bigger than I imagined. The door handle is almost 6 feet in the air.

He is going to remove the 3 way dump bed and put a custom box on it for traveling. Man I'm jealous.

Joaquin - Yup Blair said it. If you know PM it is parked behind his house. We are going to Pozo tomorrow and see if we can find anything it cant climb.

It is. He is one of those damn firemen.

Firemen in SLO must be making some decent coin! :Wow1:

Anyone know if Unimog's can be financed for extra-long terms like motorhomes?

What an awesome rig! Hope to see some more pics.
