M38 A1s, National Museum of Military Vehicles.

M38A1 with a recoilless rifle.

The first automobile I ever owned was a M38A1.

The prototype for the modern Jeep, basically, it entered civilian use as the CJ5, after entering military use in 1952.  Doubtless examples are still in use, and civilians varians are still produced by Roxor in India.

AM Radio To Go.

Ford Motors will no longer put AM radio in its vehicles.  Any of them.  Many other manufacturers are pulling theirs from electric vehicles.

Seems odd to say that I've owned three vehicles, two of them types of trucks, which had no radios at all, unless I put them in.  The first was a Willys 1958 M38A1, the second a 1962 Dodge W300, the third a 1946 Jeep CJ2A. 

The 58 M38A1 had a radio installed in it from some other vehicle.  The first vehicle I owned, I can't really recall how it was installed now.  I put a radio in the 62 Dodge.  I never did put one in the 46 CJ2A.
