I can't find a m1070 for sale anywhere, plus i couldn't afford it. What other all wheel steer all wheel drive vehicles are there? I'd like to find something in the tractor style as apposed to the 8x8's. I know the little chevy aircraft tugs were, but would like something a little bigger. Surely theres something i'm overlooking. I thought overkill was the name of the game. Need it to haul on the bed and on trailers. 80ton capacity would be nice, but i'd like to see any aws/awd vehicles.
in all honesty, you're barking up the wrong tree.
first of all, for what you want doesn't exist in the military inventory. there is nothing AWS.
secondly, what does exist is marginal, to say the least. case in point: even if you could get an M1070 (which you
can't), do you really believe that a 450hp 8v92T has enough balls to pull 210,000 lbs off road???
if you think the answer is 'yes', then you need a reality check. the HET is a
dog; it is one of the worst vehicles ever bought by the US gob't. everything that sucks about the PLS is exemplified by the HET. i've driven them fully loaded. i've worked on them. i've waited on them in my convoys in Iraq. possibly the only exception is the UK variant of the HET; it runs a 700hp Cat and much better trailer design. ... but you can't get that, either.
where you need to be looking is in the heavy duty commercial market. i'd start with land-based oil drilling trucks. next i'd look at Australian-based Kenworth rigs that haul the 'land trains' across the outback - these trucks have more than the GVWR you are looking for, can be had in AWD and will have more than enough power to do it all in-stride / at-speed.
the US military stuff may look the part, but we have to make a lot of concessions in order to make it to point 'B' with this stuff. it says a lot when the 'killers' have to slow down to wait on their logistic support vehicles when making a run through the desert sands.
hate to be a kill-joy, but wanted to share my personal experience.
