Stars and Stripes MRAP story

Stars and Stripes published a nice story on the new MRAPs deployed to the Baghdad area.

They did a nice job putting together some graphics, including the Humvee/Cougar 4X4/Cougar 6X6 comparison chart.

The best part might be a sidebar that sums up what soldiers like about the vehicles juxtaposed with what they don't like about them.

One slight problem with the story: The comments of the soldiers seem to be associated with their training on Navistar's MaxxPro vehicle, while the graphic comparison emphasizes the Cat. I and Cat. II Cougars built by Force Protection. The criticisms do not necessarily apply to both vehicles.
