Hey guys, been a while since Ive made a topic about whats been going on here in the sand box. All is going well so far. I drive basically a moonrover with a turret. Keeps me safe, so I cant complain. Hows everyone been doing? If any of you guys want to send a care package here, I can give you the address here and make sure stuff gets handed out to people in the squad/platoon.

It an Armored Security Vehicle. Most big city SWAT teams[detroit,LA for examples] have one, minus the turret.
