As MAJE became more experienced with the license produced civilian Silverado, we've developed a medium duty, light armored rapid supply transport for hauling food, weapons, water, and fuel into air-hostile environments where soldiers and rescuers need rapid replenishment.
Features:
-650 gallon fuel or water tank depending on order
-Bedside lock boxes, and several other storage solutions
-Electronically locking front and rear differentials. Full time 4wd
-Tuned for reliability, the diesel electric powerplant delivers 600HP SAE Net to the ground out of a top 1000 horse power available if needed
-Fully independent suspension
-Navigation screen inside, pressure washable interior, removable drain plugs.
-Range of 400 miles on vehicle's own fuel supplies
-A host of power and electrical extensions for generator, power tool, or extension cord use
-Amphibious and airdrop capabilities

Out of universe, in game use:
-AG1 for running lights
-AG2 and AG3 for indicators
-AG4 for parachutes

I've found through extensive testing between the prototype for Fully Independent Suspension (FIS) and one with independent suspension and a rear solid axle version that the FIS setup in game is more stable and handled varying loads better than a solid rear axle. While the solid axle usually was less suspect to sudden oversteer, the limits where that oversteer became terminal were much worse than the FIS setup. The solid axle was also much more fragile
