Re: Lowering the windshield
"a small general-purpose motor vehicle with 80-inch wheelbase, 1/4-ton
capacity, and four-wheel drive used by the U.S. army in World War II; also :
a similar but larger and more powerful U.S. army vehicle "
OK, that rules out all CJs and YJs and TJs and FSJs and FCs, etc. None of
these were used by the U.S. army during WWII. In fact, I believe it rules
out any vehicle that actually says "Jeep" on it!
What is "a similar but larger and more powerful U.S. army vehicle "? A
Humvee?
