Good video for explaining how the Unimog was started and Why. I foolishly assumed the Unimog was a truck, 4x4 vehicle. It is. But it was started as a tractor/truck combination machine for farming in Europe after WW2. Had no idea you could attach mowers and hydraulic bucket loaders to the Unimog. A unique and versatile machine.

The Allies put all kinds of restrictions on Germany after WWI as well as WWII. After WWI the Germans had restrictions on armed forces. They got around it by training in Russia and all recruits were trained as officers. Same with Unimog. It could not be built as a tank etc, so it was built as a farm vehicle. The Mauser factory was busted up, but rebuilt as H&K (Heckler und Koch), some of the original Mauser equipment was used.

Good example of good design. If they remained powerful enough for today's weights and didn't have any critical failures, why change anything.

Not to mention that many times they don't appear to be improvements at all. Like mk4 Diesel mondeo high pressure pumps. They didn't have known problems by any source.

The Ford Model T had kind of similar versatility. It was meant to be a farm tool. Repaired by its owners. I believe they often sold them by demonstrating how they could be hooked up, via belt, to power all kinds of things, like saws. Because with that kind of versatility, more people could justify the cost. So, this is more in line with how versatile a lot of early cars were. The weird part is how much less versatile most cars have become.
