I saw this on a site about the 404's and had to post it...


Off-road, the 404 is truly impressive. Few stock vehicles even come close to a 404 off-road and nothing the big three has made even comes close. The 404 has all the ultimate ingredients for truly awesome off-road capability, including unsurpassed ground clearance, an extremely flexible suspension, crawler gearbox ratios, locking differentials and a virtually bulletproof drivetrain. Because the 404 was engineered by Mercedes-Benz with these features as standard, Unimogs don't break on the trail like most heavily modified 4x4s which were never intended to run big tires, crawler gearboxes or diff locks.[/size]On first impression, the 404 may seem big, especially compared to Land Rovers, Jeeps, etc. However, it is actually quite nimble and actually has a tighter turning radius then a Land Rover D90! Obstacles that seem huge in most 4x4s are just minor bumps for a 404. Finally, 404's are also just plain fun to drive on-road or off-road!

From the listing:  "I have troop seats and canvas for the bed"

Best.  Night ride.  Ever.

I've been on night rides w Justin. Giving him more resources is both bad and awesome

You guys wanna just split it 9 ways? It can be the spare gear vehicle and we can take turns driving it.
