Re:humvee, that's madness

Humvee?? Madness, absolute bloody madness. Ok, it's mineproof, bulletproof 
and whatever-proof, but it's wide, really wide, too wide. If you could 
somehow narrow it by a foot or two, now that might be an interesting 
proposition, but I hear lately that our new jeep would be a 4 door lsvw, now 
I'm not sure if they're crapping me but if it's the case I have this feeling 
that many soldiers will go apeshit.
