Re: Cucv-iii usaf tahoe
My guess is its pretty much a Staff vehicle much like the M1009s were. Not even COMM gear being hauled so no need for any HD specs.

Re: Cucv-iii usaf tahoe
I bet it has a/c. I wonder if it has tunes. Never saw one of those either.

Re: Cucv-iii usaf tahoe
One thing about it too, if it has spent its life in Savannah it has never seen ice or snow, much less salt . I grew up within 5 miles of where you made the picture! It is cool looking for sure!

Re: Cucv-iii usaf tahoe
Very cool, never seen one. Wonder what the round thing is next to the driver's side headlight?

Re: Cucv-iii usaf tahoe
I should have worded my post as I bet it has... I'm not surprised. It's not like the military places a huge order for specially prepared military spec Tahoes. It's just a base Tahoe that got upfitted with a few basic military necessities. It's neat.

Re: Cucv-iii usaf tahoe
Allows you to operate vehicle at night with no lights. Aka Blackout driving. Nightvision required. LoL
