These should fit nicely in the back of a Skyvan, Buffalo, or Caribou:

Just sayin'.

Marines actually get something new? Not hand-me-down army equipment?

Those are designed to be deployed from an Osprey. It's interesting to me that it is strictly a logistics vehicle. Fast resupply in any terrain. I can see the Marines mounting some serious fire power on it too. As blue said nice to see them not get a hand me down for once.

The things they're doing with the new utv's is insane and the power they're getting outta them is even more crazy

  They did say they were going to replace the Dune Buggy .

Just a beefed up version of what we can buy, and the obvious conversion to JP8.  Saw this one 2 years ago, in person - it's impressive.  Again, it's a Polaris...

The Polaris website on it:

It really looks like a minnie Humvee to me. With a mini gatling gun, that would be one sick bastard. It's big enough for a tow missile also. I like it!

I see we have one of those isolationist, anti-trade Trump supporters here.  I can't believe you want Mexicans to starve to death!

That put Osceola down for the count. Great little town too.

Wisconsin has had bad luck with manufacturing it seems. GM plant in Janesville getting shut down was a big hit on southern Wisconsin.

of coarse being so close to Illinois is the real problem I think. :P
