I liked the Jeep too, but in this age of islamofascism and IED’s, it’s not practical.

Military leadership should be required to ride in old Jeeps when driving through captured territory. That would ensure that the mission of destroying the enemy was completed. Give real armor to soldiers and Marines when they go into battle.

BTW, I don't give a rat's ass about collateral damage when it comes to Muslims.

If you’re talking those little (by modern standard) Jeeps based on the 1940’s design, those things are vulnerable to a IED using a 3/4” ball of any known plastic explosive like C-4, Semtex, etc.

Yep...so that even a small IED or small arms fire can kill the entire crew.

BRILLIANT!
