These are used in Iraq. What is it? Seems shorter than a Humvee.

They are not in the slightest smaller than a humvee, in any dimension, including cost.

That thing is on 50+ inch tires.Kinda looks like a transformers version of the bobtail trucks that they use to tow stuff on the flight line
Canadian? Bombadier? Just a guess. I know nutting.
Those were made to better resist mines and IEDs than Humvees. Much sturdier with heavy bottom armor. Next best thing to rolling around in an armored personnel carrier for protection.
I had to look that up. I can't believe it's already been 15 years since they were released; it feels like it was just a year or two ago I was hearing about them.
It's their compact shape that makes them appeear small in pictures without scale reference. They are rather massive vehicles. At 25 tons fully loaded, the Buffalo by General Dynamics is a very large MRAP. A BAE Systems Caiman MRAP was often seen on Fear the Walking Dead.

But the important thing we need to know is what kind of oil does the Army use in it, and should they upgrade to something better? Something thinner? Something thicker?

To much for some, and not enough for others.
I would be interested to know the oil specs. Surely not 0-20But the important thing we need to know is what kind of oil does the Army use in it, and should they upgrade to something better? Something thinner? Something thicker?
Whatever a CAT C7 Diesel engine requires? 15W40 under warmer conditions, I suppose.
