Default I saw the Military Concept Jeep on the road!

I was driving from Cleveland to Toledo this past weekend and pulled up next to a unlimited black steel wheels, half doors and basic bumpers with d-rings then i got to lookin, it was RIGHT SIDE DRIVE ..... it had LEAF SPRING Rear Suspension!! and the AIR INTAKE BOX on the Hood. I was flipping out , i got a pic and a Video of us passing it on the turn pike, I'll have to transfer them to the computer, but i dont have a MicroSD card, i have to go buy one, has anyone else seen one of these? what does anyone know about these, are they offically replacing the hummer or what?

Do you have a usb cable that came with your phone? You may be able to pull them off that way without the need for the SD card. Or maybe email them to yourself.

Otherwise I look forward in seeing the PICs.

Right now they are primarily for the Egyptian military. Although if the Army was smart they would seriously consider it as a light reconassiance vehicle. Right now they are using BRADLEYS!!!??? In addition the leaf spring it is also diesel powered and comes in either a pickup bed or cargo box version.
