Yea we hav one of these at my work thats fit with a Hydro Vac tank and hydraulic boom. Unimogs are pretty sweet vehicles if you ask me. In these pictures (even though its not that apparent becayse of the quality) me and my friend spent about 8-10 hours cleaning, fixing and detailing our Unimog.

There was a Unimog on Elbow drive today, a landscaping company here in Calgary has one, it was towing TWO (O_o!!!) bobcats on a trailer. Powerful beasties.

I love the old millitary Mogs. Was just offered one with less then 8k on it, 1964, for 9k,its a gas :(
If I ever plan on buying something for 4x4 its going to be a mog.

For some reason I feel the new ones are not as off road savy as the old millitary ones. (probably just my imagination)
Seems like less wheel clearance and more designed to be urban/farm work horses and dont need to have the crazy off road clearance they used to. IMO

YES CHARON IT IS YOUR IMAGINATION THOUGH BETTER TECHNOLOGY THE 4X4 SYSTEMS AND AMOUNT OF POWER IT CAN PRODUCE IT IS TWICE THE TRUCK IT WAS 30 YEARS AGO:hitit:

Do you know of specific examples ?
Power I can agree with but the unimog was never designed to go fast. It has very low gears. Never needed gobs of power. Do you know what technology or "4x4 SYSTEMS" has changed for the better ?

All pages/people I have seen that 4x4 unimogs in hardcore off road that I have seen are the classic 404 and 406's I have not seen/heard a new one do anything close to what the old ones have done.

Hey AMG what phone do you have? Those are pretty decent for cell phone cam.

Sony Ericsson W800i, mate. If only it wasn't raining they would have turned out better.

I like the W900i camera bette rbuts its not worth the extra money.
Wait till the Sony K790 comes out (3.2MP Cybershot camera phone) that'll be sweet.
