Re: China has copied the Pinzgauer
Trying to put things into scale, it appears to be more in line with the size of a LMTV.
I could see myself owning one.
I wonder who's the manufacturer, and if I might know someone with "an in" :?:

A few more photos - It does look a lot more like the flying dumptruck:

If you zoom in tight you can see the MADE IN CHINA sticker.
Re: China has copied the Pinzgauer
Because nothing says "quality" like "made in China."
Re: China has copied the Pinzgauer
Perhaps not 'quality' but almost everything that we buy says 'Made in China' you may as well get used to it. Check what you are wearing or using on a daily basis.

Re: China has copied the Pinzgauer
Would any of you turn it down if you had the option of owning one? I'd buy it in a second if cash had no value. =)

Re: China has copied the Pinzgauer
You bettcha I would have one.
Almost everything made and consumed comes from there and yet people are so down on the place. I don't get it. Just cause it is not from USA doesn't make it less of a deal. Look at the mfg label on the pinz you now have...not from USA. China really doesn't have regard for where aboriginal is registered from, manufacturers just make what sells.
Course it would depend on the price, parts availability and whether the thing could be registered...blah blah blah. Let Wisconsin be your guide on that.

Re: China has copied the Pinzgauer
Ha!! Wisconsin is the Holy Land when it comes to registering ex-military vehicles. Check out s. 341.269, Wis. Stats. You can register any ex-military vehicle for about $30 for a LIFETIME REGISTRATION!! Even a lawn mower, it doesn't have to be a Motor Vehicle. PLUS, as an added bonus, there is no payload restriction!! And you apparently don't even need a title... ???krick3tt wrote:You bettcha I would have one.
