It’s that time of year when we honor and remember the veterans of the U.S. Armed Forces and our allies. I want to take my time not only to reflect on the people who have served, but also to mention some of the vehicles that assisted the military throughout the years. These vehicles have served soldiers in combat and noncombat situations in times of war and peace. Some were born in the military, and some adapted to combat well after their creation.
A lot of the vehicles on my list earned their pedigree during the Second World War. That shouldn’t really come as a surprise, since during that time period the U.S. manufacture of automobiles had completely stopped. Many of the vehicles created for the war were simply transitioned to the civilian market after the fighting ended. Many of those vehicles stuck around and continue their legacy today. There are more vehicles that have fulfilled combat roles than you would think and plenty that transitioned to a military role when they were needed. So here they are, my 10 favorite vehicles that have served in the military.
- Cadillac DTS
- Land Rover defender
- Chevrolet Suburban
- Volkswagen Thing
- Toyota Tacoma
- Mercedes-Benz G-Class
- Hummer H1
- Ram 1500
