You have a great time Manager, & take care of yourself.

Me, I'm in dispatch as usual. I send the driver's off while I sit & play. I'm thinking of heading to Chatham for the weekend, to babysit my gd's. SIL has a huge contract in Windsor to build a new golf course & id working all the hr's on it he can right now. Mel started back to work last Fri, so they are both working all the time. Now I can have some lone time with the girl's, & teach them only what a grandma can. :wicked:

You all be safe where ever you go.

Holly :cool:

Our oldest daughter has convinced her better half that she needs a Hummer H3 so that she can feel safe out there on the roads of Surrey. That thing makes Holly's little Caddy look like an economy car. Problem is that the daughter is a raging ecologist and an avid recycler. Makes for interesting dinner conversations. I told her better half that he might as well go out and get her an old B61 Mack or one of those bush KW's that our loggers used to like 'round here. Of course, I'm not the one to stir anything up around here, specially when it comes to the daughter and her tank.

I would have thought she would be a Land Rover sort!

But a B61 Mack, never!

[RodeoJoe]

Land Rover is not big enough. We need a BIG car. The daughter has switched from 454 cu in Suburbans to H3 Hummers. I'm going to see if I can find a B61 around somewhere.

[Accremonious]

OK, then. Here is the ultimate large car, a LAV-3. I worked on these in the factory for a year plus, x-raying the welds. How about the Ambulance model for higher visibility with the big red cross on the white background!
http://www.defensetech.org/archives/images/canadianlav3.jpg

They were only $2 million per copy, and powered by a V6 Jimmy 535 red block hooked to a slushmobile tranny. It is a fully padded cell with A/C. All 8 wheels drive and the front 4 steer! It can go like stink, too!

[RodeoJoe]

Yup, that's the one. She gets one look at that and the Hummer will be back at the lease company. We'll have to find some bling bling wheels for it tho'

[Accremonious]

To actually qualify to drive it will take passing a medical, completing boot camp, and wearing the uniform! It would be advisable to become a welder/mechanic at the factory instead! Less risk involved and it pays better!
Besides the LAV-3 is known to be prone to roll overs in some circumstances! If you can afford and qualify to buy one it would be better to buy the tracked Bradley tracked APC, I would think!

P.S. Remember that one of the Dupont scions that got loose with a WW2 Centurion and when they got him out of it finally, they gave him a life sentence to the "winky ward"!

[Accremonious]

I like the South African version better.

Dave
Like this one, or?

I believe I read where Canada is buying or leasing 9 of the CASSPIR's shown at the bottom for use in Afganistan. They are designed to take a "licking" and keep on "ticking"! How come the South Africans learned how to develop the toughest trucks? When they were fighting the resistance in their country were the insurgents former miners with basting experience?
