For the life of me i cant emagine why you would want people to think it is JD brand. If your going to change the color you might as well go with blue/w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif/w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif/w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif Just bustin ya walrus...Koo Koo Ka CHOOOOOOoooooooooo.

A good friend of mine swears he knows a guy around Rockford, Illinois who actually owns a Sherman tank. From all reports it is hysterical because he drives this thing all over his farm.
He had it painted pink.
I wonder if it had a color coordinated turret?

Rockford, Il. How cool. I have a radio show there too on WLUV, America's Bluegrass. It's a small world. I'll have to send out a plea to the listener's in and around the second largest city in Illinois about that pink Sherman tank.
I feel the owner should paint it Kubota orange! You won't get shot at that way.

I hope some one can provide a picture of this because I am 98% sure the story is accurate.

I met a fellow at the Chrysler plant near Rockford that had a large 3 axle Mercedes Military truck. He mentioned a person that had a tank. I don’t remember the pink paint though. /w3tcompact/icons/shocked.gif

Would the Mercedes truck been a Unimog ?Or are Unimogs not that big?

I’m not sure. Plant was having a show of employee’s old Daimler, AMC and Chrysler vehicles. This fellow brought the Mercedes to work to display.
Tires on the truck were over 5 feet in diameter.

The Unimog is only a two axle truck.

Regarding the Mog the U2450L 6x6 is as the name implies a 6X6 three axle. The Unimogusa.com website has more info if any body is interested in buying one. The website also shows the various implements that are available. Some of the older Mogs could be had w/ a FEL, a tiller, and a rotary cutter to name a few.

Concerning Tiller and other implement colors, I'd prefer something with a racing stripe or a dual racing stripe similar to an old camaro. Or maybe flames. I told my wife I was going to airbrush flames on my old Long tractor. She told me that then I'd only be able to use it on the part of our property that can't be seen from the road.

clint.
