Nice pictures, I like the one where there's a monster in the background of your MUTT. What's it called.

Yes, the MRAP. Jim, you found the one vehicle with a higher rollover rate than the MUTT. Who brought it? I haven't seen any of them stateside yet. I thought they were still shipping them all out here.
