I yesterday saw one of those military 6xs....I have seen it before.
Small-ish....diesel power, I think.  About the size of a Vanagon, but with
a pickup body that this fellow had built a cab-high very nice shell.
Former military  vehicle, I don't know how he manages to drive it in
California...but he was on the highway...

   Nearby (Ocatillo Wells Off Road Vehicular park) this weekend is the
world championship off road contest....there are thousands and thousands of
rock crawlers and jeeps of all kinds showing up for a $100, 000 prize in
the contest....No real idea of what goes on, but I may have to go check it
out....they've built this obstacle course that I would have a hard time
negotiating with my legs and climbing boots....

  It is truely amazing the amount of money these enthusiasts spend on their
Desert rigs....That $600k Mercedes would be......nothing really special
amongst THIS crowd...
