    What many always forget to mention is that the Unimog can be used as an actual workshop at any time and anywhere. You can use all air pressure power tools (they are even cheaper to buy than the electricity-based ones). So you can restore your car in the middle of nowhere if you want and you don't run out of fuel :)

    The 1300/1700 is just the horsepower, the 1700 runs a turbo und intercooler setup. The 1300 L with the 3250mm wheelbase is by far the most common, because that is the one the german military uses. I live about 40km from where these where build and about 10km from where the current model is build. If you are in the area, you should check out the unimog museum in Gaggenau. But don´t expect much offroading in Germany, expect for designated offroad parks.

    A U1500 and U1700 are similar and older agricultural versions. The U1300L and U1700L are off road chassis. Also older but the U1300L is a 7.5T normally with 6 bolt axles and the U1700L is about 11t with 10 bolt axles. Sooooo many different versions. His engines basically changes his model to a U1550L37-240. The OM 366 LA is actually a 5.9L turbo intercooled engine which for fire service had up to 240hp and about 660lbft but tuning can get a bit more. First gear is 13:1 and low range is 5.76:1. Axle is probably 5.31:1 but could be 6.53 also.

    Wow! What a truck. Yep, we can call it a truck, officially without concern. I used to build expensive toys for rich people - they would either never get used or they'd be abused. This is clearly different - a total passion project for sure, used and loved. I could always tell a lot about my customers based on how they cared for their stuff. All the comments about him being a spoiled rich kid - well, looks like he's a Hospitality exec - if you've ever managed anyone or anything - well, he's earned it. I'd love to have such a capable vehicle - my only fear is that the threshold for trouble is so high, once you are IN TROUBLE - you're doomed! A unimog is on my list - but a 78 series once we can get em here in the states will probably come first unless just the right one comes along :D Thanks for another great episode Ronny!

    On the upside, you can easily just tow another vehicle as a spare. Or a house, and just decide you want to live wherever you get into trouble. I used to live in New Guinea, and there's a story there of trying to connect two villages by road. The problem was that one of the villages was full of folks who had never seen a Jeep. Each village started cutting a track towards the other, with the distant one using only a description of a Jeep, and a description of the kind of track it used. The end result was a trail with each wheel line taking different paths. Sometimes one wheel track was twenty feet higher than the other. Sometimes a little further apart. Now the story goes that they solved the problem by just cutting two poles and carrying a Jeep to the next village to drive it around for a bit so everyone could see what they were dealing with. But I'm an Australian, and any story like that can be taken with a grain of salt but I always wonder why people don't consider pulling things apart and moving them in more manageable chunks when they become inconsolably stuck. But then, I'm an Australian, so that might be bullshit as well :)

    I just want a television series where they bring these fully modified American trucks, especially this UNIMOG, and bring it to the toughest roads in the world, such as Africa or the Jungle of Asia. Those are the places that can really test these modified monsters to the limit. We have seen 4x4 cars done that. But, what happens if we brought in a fully modified trucks such as the UNIMOG? Can it survive the muddy terrain, the harshness of the jungle and the steep climb? That's what I wanted to know. If there is one television series dedicated to doing that, I bet the ratings will be on the roof.

    A old 4wd solid axle Toyota truck with a 22RE is the best doomsday/apocalypse truck. It's one of the easiest engines to work on, has minimal moving parts compared to a 6 or 8 cylinder, can run without water cooling, can run off of 83 octane equivalent fuels, can run on 2 cylinders, still very reliable over 300K miles.

My son graduated from The New England Institute of Technology in Rhode Island. He’s a total car geek (In an adorable & impressive manner. He’s really a genius. ). This vehicle will blow his mind. My son’s future is bright & beautiful. I just wish he would let me into it. Don’t even get me started on his lego building skills. No kits needed. His imagination & spatial reasoning skills are exceptional & ever expanding. Some of his Lego creations were museum quality. I am super impressed with this man’s innovation, dedication & joy of life. He imagined it. He built it. Now, he is enjoying the fruits of his labor. Well done, sir. Well done.

    Great video Ronny its always good to give folks a peek at just what a Unimog is capable of! I have a German Military 1300L and I collect a restore M series US military trucks and we have gone on trail rides with other members of our club, lots of military Jeeps and other M series 6x6 trucks dueces etc. We were driving up this small mountain on a road that was still all there it had a couple very small holes in it but really nothing when we got to the top you would have thought we climbed Mt Everest lots of the guys with the American trucks were locked in 6 wheel drive and the jeeps were in low range 4x4 and they were hoping that we never went anything as rough as that was. One of the guys asked me what gear I ran my Unimog in through the "rough" stuff and I told him I stayed in 3rd gear and never even thought about using 4 wheel drive. One word of advice is that if YOU own a Unimog and you go 4 wheeling with other people (Unless there is another Mog there) you will be on your own in case you ever do get stuck, because there is not another vehicle that will ever get close to you!

    That's why as soon as I got my Mog I changed out the tyres to Michelins with the Hutcheson run flats with bead locks. I am rather jealous of the CTIS and tractor tyres though. Best thing I ever did was add the low range box. 8 speeds below about second gear.

That being said the thing is pretty awesome he definitely thought of all the possibilities and has the cash flow to keep it operating.

    Congratulations Matt. A superb effort and project. I see you and your Missus look to be sharing wonderful experiences together and I’m hopeful you bring some decent kids into the world because we sure need them right now. A question. I’m wondering if this is a lifelong type hobby like some or is it genuinely an insurance policy considering what appears to be an ever increasingly unpredictable and untenable world. Do you work in the typical daily grind or have you gone into your own business venture to afford what is a solid bit of kit amongst other things. Obviously generally speaking. I’m a little older but questions of adventure always arise when I see UNIMOGS. They are always associated with success in my mind and what part did the Unimog play in your own development. Well done for bringing us this fine chap and remarkably capable, any mission ready vehicle. Favourite video for quite some years.
