    8x8 Actros proves itself again and again

    We've been washed out on so many jobs down south, as the water table is so high and the ground is now saturated. But I'm able to keep material getting into some jobs thanks to the Actros, if it had have got stuck in this particular situation, it would have meant a walk out to get phone coverage, a lift out and go float the Dozer over to tow the Merc out, but lock the diffs and out it pops, every time..few more horsepower and this would be the ultimate truck..but as it is, it's pretty awesome..

    Unimog special tool

    I found this amongst the stuff in my garage today. It is a special tool for a 406 Mog.

    Anyone have a use for it?

    Impressive to think that that will still drive out of that situation. Still yet to test mine properly off road. The time will come tho in the not too distant future!

    If no one claims it, this guy who has a 406 in the states might be keen. He's on the Expedition Portal forum...
