Hiergehts ◊ 2006-04-25 23:33	Hmm, 'Gama Goat'. How did they came up with that name?
antp ◊ 2006-04-25 23:38	Junkman wrote US-Army M-561 Gama Goat built by the Consolidated Diesel Electric Company So we should use "Consolidated Diesel Electric" as make name?

Junkman ◊ 2006-04-26 02:07	hiergehts wrote Hmm, 'Gama Goat'. How did they came up with that name? It was named for Roger Gamaunt who invented the key part, the articulated power joint between the tractor cab and cargo body trailer, plus "goat" for its high mobility capabilities. Again, I'm a pacifist.
Junkman ◊ 2006-04-26 12:01	'Gama Goat' should be in the title, since this is what most people know them by.
antp ◊ 2006-04-26 12:02	If it is only a nickname we usually put it as extra info when a real mode name is available (e.g. all the Beetle that have a "1200" or "1300" as model name)
G-MANN ◊ 2006-05-19 02:25	Who's been messing with my images?
antp ◊ 2006-05-19 10:17	What do you mean? This picture hasn't changed (well, maybe somebody make it lighter, but I was remember that vehicle on that page) -- Last edit: 2006-05-19 10:19:10
G-MANN ◊ 2006-05-19 13:02	I'm not mad or anything But notice that it says repaint at the top left corner of the image.
antp ◊ 2006-05-19 13:55	Yes that's strange, I did not notice that The one that made the change can post here to solve the mystery ?
