The eternal Jeeper’s  conundrum: do you want your bug-out vehicle to have a soft top? Sure, 99.9995% of the time it’s great, but when you really need to keep the zombies out...

Hmm, wonder how much it’d cost to have this towed from California to Indiana.

I think you could probably find a hard top without much difficulty.

I’ve operated both generation of five-tons and I wouldn’t want the earlier one, even though it does have the upgraded tires.

That one is an M35 (only  2.5 ton); is that what you mean? Did you drive the A2 or A3?

The multi fuel option is attractive on the A2, but I hear the engine likes to grenade itself, so...

Clearly, you need the ring mount upgrade. When I was in the Guard, one of our 5Ts had this, but we never put a gun on it.

Well, if you want to buy it and fix it, I’ll be happy to let you drive it out to me when this is all over with.

A soft top lets you stand up and get a decent swing with the chainsaw - I think it’ll be a net win even when the zombies are around. Against the base ball size hail when the nuclear winter starts really brewing, ho w ever, you’ll want the h ardtop .

Decisions, decisi ons. W hy can’t someone mak e a proper universal bugout machine?
