Why did the Military stop using Jeeps ?

The army looked into recon jeeps a few years ago.

IDF been using Jeep under Chrysler license since 1990. It is called “Storm” made by AIL to date. Awesome Military Jeep.

I've seen J8's oversees - most forces aren't even interested in a hmmwv's ...

During the tests the traction control went off going around a corner, the radiator started leaking (again) oil leaked from the retarded oil cooler (again), RH cylinder bank misfired, rocks broke 3 windshields, got death wobble on the highway and TIPM shit the bed

Were these the ones with Angry Grills ?

If I was the enemy and saw a pack of Jeeps coming.. I’d laugh. A pack of Humvees.. “Oh Shit”

They do have a more menacing look to them.

Exactly.

Bunch of ticking pentastars and detuned diesels in bound! Look out!!

IIRC all J8's are diesels none of them are required to have dpf/scr so a non issue. If i was building something doomsday proof though i'd want something like a 4BT or 6BT - no need for electronics to run at all.. and unkillable.
