Had some friends over from Lahore to see my Mutt!
See how excited they are

One of them almost lost his glasses

On their turn to drive, had to put the windshield back up and the black shirt guy could not shift gears, so i was shifting! City Boys, cannot gear shift a mutt!

At the end of the day, they were convinced the Mutt is the best vehicle they've driven so far, before that it was a piece of junk!

Hey Sherwan,
That's pretty funny. I love the sound of that wind in my ears driving with the windshield down. Your missing some gauges, what's up with that? I see that gas can mounted on the drives side. What is used to mount it there? I'm interested in mounting cans on my M416 trailers, but they need brackets or stand-offs for the cans to clear the top lip on the trailer. Nice videos, I got my laugh of the morning.

those are standard jerrycan holders. Just mount them to the frame rail on your trailer and they'll fit just fine...
I probably will be putting mounts on mine soon too, I wanna mount a water can and a decon kit on mine.

Maybe it's to lighten it up so it'll go faster
While I'm here, think I'll watch that first video again

Guys,
When i got the mutt, none of the electricals worked, plus all the gauges were dead and weirdly all were for the generator, the army just fulfilled the count.
I've got the light switch, pulled it off so i can work up some desi magic to get it working, but it does not work without the original wiring. So its importing or find an alternate solution. So i just got the basic stuff running, a roll of 12v cable, and some Chinese switches and its good to go.
