No, Dear! No.

The Mad Wife in the Attic has informed me that what she really wants for her birthday is an Oskosh MMRS Recovery Truck ...

She has previously wanted a Stolly, a Scammell Pioneer and a Sd.Kfz. 251
Oddly enough, I have no plans on buying her any of them.

And?
The issue with this is?

Funnily enough I was making SDKFZ 251 parts today

Well, apart from the fact that she only has an ordinary car license, the Oshkosh won't fit on the drive.

She is Utterly Barking Mad!

[Wildefalcon]

My missus just bought a British rail goods wagon. You have my sympathies.

 

[Milkybars]

@Wildefalcon my kind of lady

An Oshkosh will fit in anywhere, Ive still to get a shot in the Oshkosh that is local to me. My youngest now works for the owner, should be plenty chances of a go

Full-size parts. I make a lot of stuff for people that restore WW2 military vehicles. A humble donkey would be more useful to invade Poland….Will take some pictures on Monday.

M.W.i.t.A. would probably get it on the drive with a bit of a run up.
Tho I doubt the house would survive ...

Pre 1960 Pioneer fine on a car licence and dinkier than the oshkosh

If you've got an Oshkosh you don't need a drive.

Reminds me of the day, when I ended up with the smallest Army logistics Cpl I'd ever seen stood in front of me explaining how she'd just reversed an Oshkosh fuel tanker into the back of one of our Chinooks.

Suspect it probably wasn't the best day she'd ever had.
