Great! An old Landcruiser and a Pinzgauer in one clip! If there was a Fifties Willies Jeep (and maybe an old Landrover), there would be all the of the greatest offroaders of all times. When I was driveing the exact same Pinzgauer in the Swiis Army nearly fourty years ago I was not really aware how great those vehicles were. I was more concerned wit hfreezing inside the vehicle. Yello Is a color that hurts my eyes a bit. Nice that you kept the gun holders for the giant and heavy "Sturmgewehrs 57" Swiss army guns. The most extreme I had ever seen a Pinzgauer do: Two army employees were cleaning a cemented v shape gulch out. They had their Pinzgauer and a little one axle trailer hitched to it. They drove diagonally ino the nearly 5 feet deep hole that was only 7 feet wide. The Pinzgauer had on only one wheel ond the ground. Three were in the air and most of the vehicle was pointing high in the air at a maybe seventy degree angle. I always thought: The vehicle is bound to fall over. But those guys could drive out of this hole!

@markus4692 4 жыл бұрын
this (canvas) was the standard model in the Austrian army together with the 712 6x6. I was a driver of the 710 when I was in the army. the solid models were used as command vehicles. they featured stationary heating and were equipped with big radios. you got very lucky if you were selected to drive one of these in the winter because the heater in the 710/712 is more or less non existing -> downside of an air cooled engine. but the vast majority was the canvas version. the third configuration was a medevac version. But only in 6x6. was also nice because it also had stationary heating. this vehicle is almost unstoppable. at least when equipped with snow chains (storage boxes on the side). we often used snow chains even in mud terrain and were trained to put them on and off very quickly. medevac: www.bundesheer.at/misc/image_popup/ImageTool.php?strAdresse=/waffen/images/geraet_sankw.jpg&intSeite=1920&intHoehe=1080&intMaxSeite=1920&intMaxHoehe=1025&blnFremd=0

Nobody wanted to drive the Unimogs iwhen I was in the Swiss army. The "newer" one was called the UNIMOG S, a real gass guzzler. But the worst was the Unimog 1t. It had hardly 30 hp. I had to crawl with this thing, a trailer, four poor guys and masses of telephone wires that they had to put everywhere. Through forrests and hills. Loaded and with the guys and trailer it weighed close to thee tons. Mine had a Mercedes star on it and was bult in 1949. Once a rear brake blocked in the field. The mechanics replaced the fluid with salad oil they took out of the rolling kitchen. I drove back to main quarters for an entire day with salad oil brakes.

A great alternative to a side-by-side or UTV. Have been looking at Japanese mini-trucks ($10k) as an alternative - again more for backwoods off-road, noisy and rough riding. These look like a step up ($20k) but a lot more capable. IMHO hate people standing nearby when pulling someone out - waiting for strap/chain to bust/come loose and go flying. Loved shots of FJ, if having Wrangler or Bronco (wide gauge - full size) why not have a Unimog or M35A1

The PUNZGAUER has a very big disadvantage over the LANDROVER you want to be aware of! A LANDOVER can deal with up to 45 degrees of side tilt! NEVER ever try this in the PINZGAUER, we had and still have terrible roll over accidents with the PINZGAUERS in the SWISS ARMY! I can’t remember the published figure for the Pinz but it might very well not exceed 20 degrees!

looked these up for sale, and see a lot more of the 712 with dual axle in the rear. What's your thoughts/ comparisons between the two models and which do you think is the most reliable/ servicable?
@ThisWeekWithCars 4 жыл бұрын
I want to have the 712 for looks only. It is probably a toss up on capability as the 710 can turn sharper and get through tighter trails but will have less traction in mud. The 712 although have six wheels with only a slight added weight is great on flat ground it could give you less ability on rocks because it can drive up on all four rear axles and not want to let the front come back down.
@life02ab 4 жыл бұрын
@@ThisWeekWithCars Good points, all of these. Given that the roads i have to travel on are typically logging roads, with fairly wide road beds, but extremely muddy and lots of hills, sounds like the 712 would work great. Thanks man.

@eoneal13691 4 жыл бұрын
The 712 is geared slightly lower, is a little bit more stable offroad and has the extra traction. I have a 710 because I do drive freeways. It still goes almost anywhere it is a couple hundred pounds lighter. Either one will put a smile on your face. I offroad with a group with 710's and 712's and have never had a problem going anywhere a 712 goes I just get a little more wheel lift.

Don't know bout that. My uncle owns a Landrover Defender which he uses for hunting, and during my time in the Austrian Army I drove the Pinzgauer. So while I never tested them on the same trails, I am pretty sure I would opt for the Pinzgauer. These things in the Army were all from the 60s I believe, no one cared for their survival - these things were absolutely driven to death each day, and still they would never fail us. Apart from the fact that I would never dare to just flat out mow down bushes and drive over rocks at suicidal speeds in an expensive Landrover, there is also something really nice about not having a massive hood while trying to maneuver between trees on a muddy, slippery, steep terrain.
