* 29 Prim construction, No need to wear parts.

* 5 Seating locations including one on the hood.
* Built to SL scale but based on actual Ford/Willys proportions.
* Suitable for static display, But fully drivable.

The Willys MB and Ford GPW were manufactured simultaneously from the same basic plans from 1941 through the end of the war in 1945 . These Small four wheel drive vehicles, known as Jeeps, Are an Iconic symbol of the American war effort.
The Thor GPW Jeep captures the character and grit of the true American war hero. Built First and foremost to be a great driving machine, The scripting has been optimized to balance low lag and memory use with great handling and ease of driving.
But this Jeep doesn't skimp on detail either. At 29 prims, there is nothing extra to wear. But were some all-prim vehicles save prim count by not including basic parts, This jeep includes them, and adds finer details as well. Its simply the best looking Jeep on the grid.

I bought this Jeep around the time i came to SL. It has proven to be like the one in RL. I've never lost one to a sim change, never had to delete because of script problems. Even the passengers stay with the vehicle. I also like how it handles. Took getting use to, though, It was ready to drive right out of the box. I use mine with a biker cam. Gear selection is easy and gives flexibility to differing terrain and hills. As said in the movies, "ya done us proud, son!" Thank you.

I've driven a LOT of vehicles in the 10 years I've been in SL and this is one of the best and easiest to manuever. Also, the detail is amazing. You'all have done a terrific job creating this vehicle. Now, any chance you'll make a gun for the gunmount? I'm uhh....asking for a friend. :))

This little jeep is a joy to look at, and a joy to drive. It has six different speeds to use from slow to really fast. The textures and all the detail are just great, perfect olive color. Hood opens, window folds up or down, and the breaking window is a cool extra feature. Goes good on roads, and off road. Lots of fun! The price is right too. Just buy it!!

The modeling is fantastic, so real looking and the extra options are nice. I'd like to see some working lights and a more refined handling, but I cannot complain much, since it's a 1942 vehicle! If you're a WW II or military enthusiast this a must go, you will love to cruise in it or simply display.
