We've all know what Ford stands for. Found On Road Dead, Fix Or Repair Dailey, backwards Driver Returns On Foot. Well, I heard one for Dodge today. Dang Old Dudes Go Everywhere! That's so true about M37s and their old brothers the WCs. Dang old dudes go everywhere!
I just wanted to pass that along....
M37s are HMMWV in my world!

I believe that is just about all MVs. I like to say that MVs like to mark their teritory. Even brand new FMTVs drip oil drop grease everywhere. Seen it with both eyes...

Every Guard and Reserves vehicle I see has "portable containment devices" on board. When parked, out come the plastic buckets.

I thought it was Dear Old Dad's Gutless Engine
or Driver Old Drunk, Gunned Everyday (speak for yourself.....
)
I thought Ford stood for Flip Over Read Directions?
Toyota definitely stands for: Truck Over Years Oxidizes Totally Away......

When I was a "Young'un" FORD always stood for "Found On The Road Dead".

When I bought my first Ford 4x4, I was told FORD stood for Found Off Road Dead.

Customers Have Experienced Vehicular Rustout On Literally Every Truck.
And us old timers know what Pontiac is.
