no pics but there was one for sale about 20 minutes from here a couple months ago. Its still for sale. It looks smaller then the two in the pics though. Same shape and all, just smaller. Cool I might have to go take a drive up there with the camera.

I love Mogs. Wish I could afford one. They are not really that expensive. LetÆs just say I bought 2 unimogs for half of what I have in the Montero. And thanks to rich hunters I stand to make twice that for the one with higher miles. Good unimogs are out there for good prices. Parts are also out there and are not very hard. Clod War Reproductions has just about any part you need and they are not expensive at all. In fact I have gotten several small parts form NAPA.

So what's the gas mileage on those puppies?
It would be a great wheeling rig to have!

I met up with my friends son ,last year at the Easter jeep Safari in Moab. They ship thier Mog down on a semi trailer each year, because it is so slow to drive. Weighs way too much to tow on a regular car trailer. It will go anywere, but tight or narrow trails. It makes a great tour bus for Moab,Especially with the two rows of seats in the back out of a 747. We have taken it on Billings Canyon, rated 9 out of ten. It recieved damage to the boxes on the side and the fenders. But it did make it all the way thru. This is a trail that my raider is not capable of doing.
Well on my way to becoming that eccentric old man in every town.(crazy as a s#@thouse rat) With a yard full of desireable old vehicles that tells you, Sorry they're not for sale..... Someday I'm going to fix them.

High ground clearance with portal axles. Lockers, low gears. Yes they are big and heavy. I would hate to get one stuck in the mud.

i believe that one is a 406 which is bigger and even better than what i have. i have found out that the more weight in the back the more flex you get. i sure at some point in one of my mogs life I will stick a camper on the back. Right now they are helping me start my own business. No I donÆt plan on making very much money but it will help with taxes and just enough to pay the insurance. .
Juggernaut OHV Recovery Service. You stick it, we can strap it.
Due to the vast amounts of illegal wheeling in Baton Rouge and surrounding areas I have teamed up with the SheriffÆs Department to pull out trucks and some cars that are found stuck. The great thing about this is that there are 3 other companies doing this for the SD. I have the weekendÆs time slot and if I canÆt go pull them out instead of losing the deal with the SD I can just call one of the other guys. Sparky may even join in with his rig especially when he is done with his mods.
