Love it, Great job. Why are you selling it? I see you will sell it with some pats taken off of it, you have another Pinz for those parts?

Re: Volvo vs Pinzgauer Which is more of a "daily driver"

HAHA, my wife would just yell louder, more concerned about the dog. Just kidding honey.

After reading the responses, may just buy a weekend toy and a lifted suburban for daily use.

Re: Volvo vs Pinzgauer Which is more of a "daily driver"

Yeah, I'll have to find an east coast military truck show with the hopes of seeing one there and hearing them run, or possibly get a ride in one. I build 50's style hot rods as a business, and my driver is a 1930 model A with a 472 big block ford running about 500hp and after running open lakes pipe...

Re: Volvo vs Pinzgauer Which is more of a "daily driver"

When I say daily driver, I mean for short stints around town for coffee and what not. But I do take my dog, who will be riding in the back. I'm concerned about the noise more than anything I guess, I had heard that Pinz are extremely loud, and see a lot of people put in headsets. I don't know anyone...

Volvo vs Pinzgauer Which is more of a "daily driver"

Hello Everyone, I will be in the market and looking to purchase a 6x6 vehicle shortly, although I am thinking it will take several months to a year or so to find one.

Re: Looking to Buy a Pinz, but lots of Questions, please hel

Okay thanks for the info. best thing I think is for me to drive one and see for myself. I guess I won't be buying one of the internet without a test drive. I have and do own several 4x4's, pickups, jeeps, blazers, suburbans, and as a hobby I build circa 1930-1940's hot rods, with big motors and loud...
