| Description: | News In Brief. Tough-terrain Truck. The U.S. Army's newest vehicle. A 2 1/2 ton job which proves its rugged durability over some troublesome terrain. The new 8-wheel truck-carrier is made of aluminum. Weighs 5,000 pounds less than the trucks presently in use. The truck drives down highway, soldiers with helmets and guns sitting in back of truck. Truck goes off-road. Then even into the water (!). Talk about all terrain vehicles. | |
