Anyone use one for a trapline vehicle?

The neighbor had one when I was a kid. Cool rig but it got about 4 gallons to the mile.

we had one at work many years ago.

awesome ground clearance, slow as molasses.

No, but I drove one in the service. Actually a SEE truck or small emplacement excavator. A unimog truck with a freightliner bucket up front and a case backhoe on the back plus a couple boxes of hydraulic powered tools. As a backhoe it sucked since the light truckbody lacked the weight and geometry to not be pulled into the hole. Pretty much the same plus springy suspension made it iffy as a FEL. Other than that great go any where offroad truck. It really shined though as a log skidder. Careful if you tow with it. Gets real squirrelly when pulling heavy at speed. The Army tried telling us the Ingersoll 250 air compressor was within its capabilities, it wasn't. Front buckets side swiping and swinging side to side on the autobahn ain't cool.
Again as a truck great but don't saddle it with stuff it can't handle. The transmission has hi/lo plus an intermediate collar thing on the stick.

Stopped to look at one this week. Obvious surplus with dents, rust and dry rot. Made me want to cry considering mine was brand spanking new when assigned. So new my training on it was the service manuals.

I test drove one years ago I wish I'd of bought it now, in my way of thinking there aren't many places one can't go to with the 4 wheel independent suspension it's only limited by where you have the nerve drive it to.
If I could choose I'd like a old military ambulance and turn it into a camper.

I always thought those portal axels were neat. Allowed for more ground clearance.

Id hate to change a tire on one of those!

About 15 years ago I went to a rock crawling event with a friend who was a 4x4/Jeep enthusiast. As everybody was failing on the extremely challenging obstacles with their high dollar, dual transfer case jeep rigs, a guy turned up with a 6wd Unimog and drove across the whole course without batting an eye LOL. I had never seen a Unimog before that, it was very impressive to say the least but he said you needed ear protection to drive it faster than 30 kmh or you would go deaf.

Not that difficult.

I have one but I do not use it for trapping very often only when I need to get in and out of the most difficult spot

Mine has the three-point on the back that I pull a 7ft mower
It is a model 406

Those things are bad ss! Check this out:
