  Spotted this morning while I picked up my dry cleaning. I love these. There is one other in town that is Army green with all the shovels and attachments. This one looks driven, and there's an aftermarket trans-cooler it looks like behind the grill. Thought I'd share some pics:

  I've already warned my wife that there is a M715 in our future. I don't know when, or where, but it will happen.

  Nope. Great truck, but not a great ZAV. Too many handholds for the cling-ons during zombie flattening maneuvers. Besides, it's a soft top - a definite no-no.

  Plus, is the soft top an asset or a liability? Maybe it's a better scout vehicle.

  Yes, we now have signatures.

  do you want your precious cargo out back in a bed? I think a grand wagoneer would be a better ZAV as you can load the back with munitions and food... rolling zed killer.

  The wife WANTS a ZAV so bad.

  But I agree on a Grand Wagoneer, remember my grandfather had one when I was a little kid, such a cool vehicle.

  Sorry for the stupid question. What is ZAV???

  The telltale oil slick/bio hazard on the ground below it reminds me of the Wagoneer we had and the milk crate of fluids that accompanied it everywhere.

  Zombie Apocalypse Vehicle..

  Even though there are downsides to the soft top, it would make it easier for your passenger to get to the back in order to operate the .50 cal

  Yeah, I don't seem to remember that truck faring too well in the movie.

  Obviously, Marty has turned.

  It's okay. Marty keeps setting himself on fire. He's no real threat.

  the other day, i passed a convoy of 3 flatbed trucks that each had 3 shiny brand new armored Humvees heading west towards Fargo.. i don't know what Fargo needs with 9 up-armored Humvees, but if there are zombies involved, it would be good to know..

  The Dodge Powerwagon with a diesel swap is the ultimate ZAV. Everybody knows that.

  Yeah, that price is insane. For $6,500 it's a good deal. $65,000 is full retard.
