| Centurion | Post; Willys Jeep, or Humvee?What do you like better? If you have another choice add it in but please,it has too have tires not treads. I chose the 1940's Jeep cuz Its compact, extremely tough, and dependable, also they are so easy too work on (I wish new jeeps were). The Military definitely didnt screw up when they chose the little work horse. And its easy on the eye's, chicks dig Jeeps. I know the Humvee is better mechanically, I based my choice on love for Jeeps and the Humvee is just too much of a box on wheels.

| Cadet Moderator   | Clicked on the wrong box. I wanted to vote Jeep. The Jeep may be older, but it was extremely useful.

| Immunes | I like the Jeep! Been in one at an army surplus, they had one in Burlington and I got to ride in it with my friend and the owner. it was awesome. The Humvee has the Hole in the top where u can shoot out of and can hold more people but i go gor vintage!

| Optio | Post; the jeepI have to agree the jeep. its easy to fix, rugged and reliable. i have an old one that i drive around from time to time, good for spotlighting too. plus i cant afford a humvee  and they look to much like a box with wheels

| Centurion | The humvee isnt as small as the jeep, I think its good for deserts and cities, but too wide for anything else. |
