Description
Here's your basic go anywhere do anything Jeep (I think this is an MB but it could be a later version, if you know for sure please comment) from WWII and decades after, until replaced by the Humvee.
Who can forget 'The Rat Patrol', the TV series where Christopher George flew over the sand dunes on - you are never really "in" those early Jeeps, you ride "on" them - with their machine guns blazing, harassing Captain Dietrich (Eric Braeden) and his boss Rommel.
A lovable little fellow, the Jeeps were quite rugged. Lightweight and small to go anywhere but they couldn't carry much and flipped over easily. Today's civilian Jeep is totally different but the original DNA is still evident in today's Jeep Wrangler. (Sorry to report, but the popular urban commuter Jeep with the dealer-installed machine gun option has been discontinued).

I think the funniest Jeep scene from a movie was one with Bob Hope riding in the back of one of these
through the Army's 'test track.' They were going full speed (Classified) over some of the roughest terrain and Bob was doing everything he could to hold on.
