goodo123 Posted October 13, 2013 Report Share Posted October 13, 2013 They are overpriced for a new truck for what u actually get, this is due to pimp daddy's, footballers, celebrity girlfriends, drug dealers and toffs trying to be these.

four-wheel-drive Posted October 13, 2013 Report Share Posted October 13, 2013 (edited) The big thing that hit them I think was when the military stopped buying them not just UK but other countries as well I think Australia went German Mercs The Americans did the same when they stopped buying Jeep Wranglers but the US has something that we do not have lots of open spaces for people to go offroading so they had plenty of people willing to buy them just to have fun in them going where not many other trucks can go.

It was the tender for a new vehicle that went to GMC... and they came up with the HUMVEE. Australia have indeed gone to Merc http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=60O9LfEmhmM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
