I remember reading someplace where this special forces dune buggy type vehicle that was meant for fast moving light recon had a bad habit of getting stuck in the sand. Apparently, it was great on hard sand but with a full load of gear, it just get getting stuck when it went off-road.
Which kind of raises a problem. Why not go with a more simple off-road vehicle that was mass produced 4 wheel drive with decent carriage capacity?
