Accidentally buying two Humvees at a government auction, with 1 having a left over M4 is the most American thing I will hear this year.

I think the engine swap would make for a really cool video series.

As a former Mechanic in the Marine Corps you hit all the common issues with these trucks. Having some flash backs to fun with the boy.

The Army travels in columns. Only the first one in line needs brakes.

Waldo, I don't know if you notice with the comments, but we are not picky about what projects you are uploading. Most of us just get excited seeing a notification from your channel regardless of the project. So please do whatever you feel like.... The Mercedes engine project sounds pretty blasphemously amazing though.

Do we want to see a part two humvee video?? HECK YEAH. This is one of the most genuine video makers on YouTube. His patience and attention to detail is amazing. I could watch him rebuilding a washing machine and still be fascinated. Well done.

The biggest difference between a Marine Humvee and an Army Humvee are the bite marks on the Marine Humvee's steering wheel.

I spent 10 years in the Marine Corps as a Motor Transport Mechanic. This video brought on so much nostalgia and simultaneously trigger me. Every problem you had was something I had to fix at least once in my career. Loved every second of it.

All the fluids look new because they basically always are. We change the fluids so often that they rarely ever get a chance to get old. If they are not deployed or at a National Training Center, they get very little use, so they get new fluids like every 500 miles or less. Also remember that that HMMWV is not painted with "paint" It's covered in CARC, that's Chemical Agent Resistant Coating. Stripping it requires extensive safety gear and respiratory protections.
