Re: reincarnated!
....but they've made the Pinny look strange.....it's "unbalanced"
How come all the companies (other than Steyr Puch), that "fiddle" with the Pinny manage to make it look worse.

Re: reincarnated!
I think it looks....like a Pinzgauer. I wish they would have shown more of the "improvements" made to it.

Re: reincarnated!
Ricardo just happens to like the looks of the MAN trucks. I am not a big fan of loosing ground clearance by hanging items even lower even if the intent is not for purely offroad use. A set of battle rims/bead locks would look nice on a 712 though.
Re: reincarnated!
That helps....I still don't mind it, other than the crap hanging off of it.Profpinz wrote:Steyr Puch/AT 718

Re: reincarnated!
I think it takes away from the classical look & that's a minus.
Re: reincarnated!
Can't see any upgrades; quite the opposite.
Re: reincarnated!
Improved head room and forward visibility, nice. A tall driver still would need to duck head to look out side windows.

Re: reincarnated!
Would be great for us tall guys until it rains and the wipers still only do the original sized windshield!
Not a pretty or very functional redesign of the front and the crap hanging 8" from the ground on the sides is a bit of a joke.
