No dune buggies. They have these really cool leather, nylon and rubber transport systems that are so important to getting around that each Ranger brings two with him on every mission.jrotc_cadet wrote:do the rangers use those dune buggies with the .50 cals on top? they look pretty bad. i heard their fast too. whats the most common type of transport for rangers? i also like the zodiacs that they use like the seaL's?

The Zodiacs used by Rangers are just like the SEALs. They're both inflatable and made by the same company, called, uh - oh yes, Zodiac.
you talking about the self propelled one?
thanks for the information. i didnt know the same company made the seals zodiacs as made the rangers ones.

This is all true, but rumor is that future Rangers will be using a militarized Segway complete with ATV tires, modified suspension system so you can jump attached to the vehicle, camo paint job (factory), and a GPS system. These units alledgedly travel, depending on terrain, at appx. 12-15 mph with a 400 lb load. See the civilian version at:

The only reliabe mode of transportation. I still have 3 pairs too. Plus a brand new never been worn pair of Matterhorns. Who ever wore them? They were kind of like the field jacket. Nice to hang in your closet or put in a duffle bag.S.Plavney wrote:I still prefer the canvas, green type, non-clogging panama sole jungle. Never fails, never runs out of gas, no batteries, 1 knot and it's secure, re-sole-able, always looks good with whatever your wearing.......still have 4 pairs I use in the yard and for hunting and range days
