Kuwait massive storm
We are in the season called "sarayat" were suddenly out of nowhere the weather gets stormy. It is hard to predict. I was driving in my jeep where suddenly it hit me. First it was a sand storm, but one were you can't see your jeeps hood and then i showered and hit by massive hail stones. Fortunetly i quickly founf a plce to park under a roof otherwise my jk would of got a huge beating. These storms length is somewhere between 5 to 30mins, and they are very dangerous, because they are so sudden.
If you go to youtube and type kuwait storm you will see some videos.

You can find HMMWV here:
steelsoldiers.com/
and also you can buy them for the govorment here
govliquidation.com/index.html
going price for a 15-20 year old one is about $30,000
you can pick up a used 2 1/2 truck for only about $3,000
you can also get a WWII Soviet T-34 Tank for less then a HMMWV

I remember when I was there, I was only about 20 feet away from my tent when the storm hit suddenly I ended up walking into the wrong tent
It was like walking blind
