Mendel-2 class Wheeled 6x6 Truck (TECH LEVEL 10)[edit]

Based on the chassis of the Mendel-2 class Wheeled 6x6 Truck, TL-10: This is a family of light Wheeled Vehicles, the prime version was a commercial heavy cargo hauler. They are currently in use on Jubb/Loran (Halcyon 1812) B575754-8. They are used primarily as an artillery prime mover for heavy towed howitzers. Ordered by Mendel's Marauders. Meant as an unarmored, light weight, inexpensive, spartan design with no amenities. Light enough to be amphibious, they are not sealed and lack auxiliary water propulsion. They have a single crew member, the driver in the forward cabin, and can carry 6 passengers in the rear seating area which exits by a set of rear facing doors.
