If you order one, try to get one of those gatling guns to go with it.

The "gun" for our fighters is a 20MM electric gatling. I have often wondered why we didn't have them in WWII. Not that hard an engineering upgrade from what we had. It would have won the air war for the side that had it.

Forget the civilian version of the Humvee. My son says they are nothing more than a gashog ugly body on a standard pickup chassis.

I think your son was talking about the H2. The original civilian version of the Humvee, is similar to the military version. Its more expensive than the base military version, some interior upgrades, and without all of those weapon and armor options, but otherwise almost the same.
