sorry if I maybe am a "little rude" but when you said stuck I for some reason immediately thought of a very silly movie when I mused 'I sure hope you didn't pull hard enough to literally rip the poor handle out on that unimog?' aka look at what this goofy man did not once but twice: (first...

knowing not everyone likes facebook (and/or that their internet has it blocked) I took a screencap instead but here you go if you have never heard of this before yourself that is!

@silverstate55 given the pump lines that seem to cut into where the factory tank would had been I very strongly suspect its a range extending tank

not to get too political saying this this way but I'll accept *that* pickup in europe over any of these 'dumb' new ribs-killing fat ones the bigot-serving companies are trying to force into the europe markets hope you do indeed have fun with that additional to your collection ok? (you going...

nice one @fuzzytoaster .. fuzzy as in not top but not bottom either! heh

@fuzzytoaster regarding "crude by design" there is that expression 'only a mother could love it' which also seemingly has came up a few times with very odd one-off railroad locomotives that looked really ugly yet they stayed around for many years of good service tho (and would you believe that...

huh I sure take back a bit of what I said as I somehow for random no reason decided to try do "unimog forklift" search on youtube and mm here we go: at 5:56 that looks like maybe 9-10 feet working height? and heh I'm not too surprised it can even roll quite a bit either directions too but that...

I'm just curiously wondering how high that thing might fork to? as it looks like at least one "inside sleeve" and one "outside sleeve" on top of that it looks like the middle chain drive might be a independent third piece too of course can't forget that as these forks looks very long its...

you know, I had initially wondered about the attachment arms at all four corners and the "bidirectional bumpers" but now seeing that trailer - to quote an old expression 'ohhh now everything makes sense!' .. interesting hardy design indeed especially with blowing the front axle, 'steal' one off...

"described" and "never seen one real" might not be too suspicious, sometimes there is a special option in the catalogue that was otherwise seemingly never taken up by any buyers as much as it stayed listed in the catalogue for some time? unrelated casepoint is this seemingly normal multi-duty...

@USAFSS-ColdWarrior not to 'play' with your spotlight but I think *this* web photo below would be a real bang compared to the puny tiny bang you already speak of hehe? https://cdn.images.express.co.uk/img/dynamic/151/750x445/725503.jpg (yep these really are a large bunch of humans to the...

no problem @M813rc I was just loosely paraphrasing a rather famous short line from a fictional luke skywalker then again where han said "got it where it counts" could in a manner apply to this weary looking vehicle too hm? either way heres a very short youtube clip with both characters in...

I don't have official cite for this but I think I've often heard that north america dyes the house/offroad oil a red shade (so don't think of 'borrowing' out of the furnace fuel tank for your multifuel engine..or if a highway officer decides to dip the truck tank and sees this then you're in for...

@fuzzytoaster I want to exclaim "just what the hell is that..junk???????" (and looks like it only sit one or slim two humans inside there too?) hehe?

@Mullaney @USAFSS-ColdWarrior and anyone else who can't help laughing in some way.. I present this map url to you even if I didn't need to! hehe https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=16/43.97426/-78.34154
