Okay, what kind of trucks are they? They appear that they can go anywhere.

Not mistaken cowboy....I feed my cattle and a cow can go through a 8 wire fence if they want too.....I never said they could not....I said on my ranch they don't. I actually saw an Angus bull go straight through a high fence....... I actually have cattle, game pens and cams on all the pens and like I said not one pic of a cow inside my pens..... So remember I am not mistaken just stating facts on my ranch.

You gotta pull your wire tighter. I've had two pens made with three strings of barbed wire going for years. Not a cow it in. [/quote]

In my experience the more overgrazed the property is the better feed pen you will need. [/quote] [/quote]

I don't have any cattle, but if you think that one that wants to get to corn wont/cant get through 3 strands of barbed wire your mistaken. [/quote]


Shhhhhhhh better to be quiet than remove all doubt..

They are Pinzgauers. Former Swiss Army vehicles used by many different countries. 4 cylinder, air cooled, portal axles, 5 speed manual transmissons. They have great ground clearance, the rear wheels are articulated making it easier to go over rocks. Top speed about 60 mph.

They fell out of favor because their thin skin does not hold up well to IEDs or .50 cal. rounds. But they are great ranch trucks. The 4 wheel one can be covered with a cover for a Chevy Astro van.

Here's the 6 wheeler, parked at Seminole Canyon State Park, next to regular vehicles.

on our place for the most part they don't feed the cows just let them graze.

The fences start off tight then get leaned on until they bend the tpost. no problems with the hog panels so far but we'll see what happens in late summer when everything is dry.
