Alas, I was defeated -.-

Yay... us?

Uhhh.....not that Oshkosh, actually.

ctobio: B'gosh.

Done in one.

Any pics of these bad boys yet?

Oshkosh Corporation frowns on subby's shenanigans.

At least if they break or wear out you can exchange them for another of the exact same size..

Anyone else think Oshkosh sounds like some kind of Ogre language?

Actually none of the Oshkosh B'gosh stuff is made here anymore. It's all imported.

ctobio: B'gosh.

Done in onesie.

Zug zug!

Yeah, Oshkosh already makes vehicles for the military - the Heavy Expanded Mobility Tactical Truck (HEMTT) series. Pretty good trucks, too. Cargo, Bridge transporters, all kinds of stuff.

A development that would have been helpful oh say maybe 8 YEARS AGO!

Will they have footies to keep the soldier's toes warm?

ctobio: B'gosh.

B'goshed in da boobies.

That's what you get when you elect Lambchop for president.

Zwaboo!

Why is this odd?

Oshkosh B'Gosh is the children's clothes maker.
Oshkosh Corporation makes the heavy duty trucks. They share nothing other than a name and home town.

Submitter is a douche. There are two companies... OshKosh B'Gosh and Oshkosh Corporation. The one here has been making heavy trucks and vehicles since 1916. I've driven several military vehicles built by them.

Side note: Oshkosh, Wisconsin was one of the main filming locations for Depp's new movie "Public Enemies". The closed down the downtown for awhile... I was there.

Tanks.

If the Governator buys one, will we be seeing them on the roads here too?

I can decide if Oshkosh b'gosh is more reminiscent of Klingon or Cthulhu.

Menor: Actually none of the Oshkosh B'gosh stuff is made here anymore. It's all imported.

...but the vehicles, which are made by a completely different company named after the same Wisconsin city, still are.

Now, if only they would buy vehicle test stands from my employer, then maybe *I'd* be going back to work, too.

(grumble)

OK, I'll bite. How much to convert my car so I can drive over this guy without damaging the vehicle?

Actually, Oshkosh is Ojibwe for "the claw."

/Proceed with humorous racism.

Ghastly: Well the Canadian Forces replaced my beloved FN-C1A1 with Fisher Price's My First Assault Rifle so I guess this makes sense.

/my lawn
//get off it

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
Which Fisher Price rifle are you now issued?

The get handed down to the national guard.

Who'll use them for a year and then put them in storage for five of six years before they donate them to Goodwill.

I had a buddy that worked in a factory that made armed personnel carriers of various sorts for both Americans and Israelis. He said the American models had crap for armor while the ones for the Israeli military were over-engineered with defenses. I'm sure its the same cheap-ass deal the gov is making with these people.

I bet you didn't have to look up how to spell ogre like I had to to spell Cthulhu. ;-)

Submittard needs to get a breath of fresh air and leave mommy's basement for a change.

Must be Oshkosh Truck. they build some killer trucks.

ScottMpls: If the Governator buys one, will we be seeing them on the roads here too?

Came in for this.

Get a purchase order, Vorlan.

Apparently we had not counted on the pervasiveness of IEDs in both theaters of operation, and on the sheer proportions of casualties they would produce. You don't get the benefits of clairvoyance in war, merely hindsight.

At any rate, this thing WILL save lives. In fact, they already have. (new window)

I work for a McNeilus, so I'm getting a kick out of this.
