Found this 87 2wd Ranger with it's awesome 2.9 on YouTube

Kubelwagen was the Nazi version of the Jeep/GPW. Strange little vehicle, and yup, very similar to the Thing.

2wd vs 4, lighter, faster, and IIRC a little more capable than jeep in everything but the most extreme stuff. Always looked they would make the ultimate Bug Out Vehicle.

I think theres a video on youtube where they pitted a gpw vs one of them. It was pretty sweet.

Id still rather have the jeep. Cause 'murica.

the 2.9 was decent.


not a hard core issue with it all around.

Looks like the vast majority were A4LD related.

Plus...good job using the first year it was in production for a TSB list. Really adds to the effect.
