Team Unimog Pakistan When Nothing Else do the Job, Team Unimog has the Solution! we dedicate this Unimog page to Team Unimog Pakistan, the courageous MEN who took this Punga.

A Brief on History of Unimogs in Pakistan: Our Military started acquisitions of Unimogs in the late 70s, although they wanted to have a RHD 4x4 go anywhere vehicle for troops (421.128 BeeMog), carry patients (421.129 DeeMog classic version), carry supplies (421.128 flat-bed), but Unimog sales teams managed to convince our generals on LHD German tractor is all we need, it started from some local de

mos on its capabilities, diff lock, ground clearance, articulation, approach & departure angles, torque, crawler gearbox and portal axels, since Unimogs were born with these special abilities which are still missing in most of the newly produced 4x4s so winning a sales pitch wasn’t a big issue. Mercedes exported few Unimogs to Pakistan to give an on-ground demos in Himalayas & cholistan and this was followed by a training team which delivered literally certified our drivers & mechanics on Unimogs. Unimog 421 U600 also known as 1.25 ton truck is the most common variant our Army bought from Mercedes-Benz, in addition to that our military also had few 406, 416 and lately very few 417s. This thread though covers all types of Unimogs but 421s takes the lead due to its weight, size, quantity & availability of parts. Few key changes German engineers had to do was to comply with the 24V battery system which was our Military’s standard at that time, so first 24 Volt 421 was made for Pakistan Army and now all new Unimogs are on 24 Volt even in Germany. A minor change was done with the headlight glass lens which was fitted as per RHD traffic. All 421s purchased by Army had 4 forward gearbox along with separate lever for high and low speeds, whereas in Germany all of them were produced as 6 forward at that time (DeeMog was upgraded to 6 forward gearbox in 2011 as first 421 in Pakistan). Driver cabin Heater was also not included in the Unimog 421 package made for Pakistan. These Unimogs rolled out from the production line in only two colors which were Military Green and Desert . (Current) Our Military made the decision that Unimogs are no longer required in Service and started the gradual auction process in 2006-07 which reached its full speed on 2011. By now it is assumed that over 90% of Unimogs 421 are gone, out of approximately 6,500 vehicles only 20-25 have reported as survived, rest of them were chopped & eaten by the local Metal masons (mog killers) who have an eye to see metal in all machines in terms of KGs, they can never see what functions a machine can deliver. We will be covering the topics on how they performed in the Military Service later by combining the input received from X Mens. Till now we have some tremendous performances from Unimogs on all types of terrains which are tested by Team Unimog Pakistan.

"WE WILL ALWAYS MISS YOU Rene"

It was the start of 2011 in Lahore when René flew in to visit Team Unimog Pakistan for a memorable trip. The events leading up to René's visit speak volumes about the courage he possessed. Here's a recap: that year, the world's most wanted man was killed, and we frequently heard news of su***de bombings. However, none of these deterred René because his passion was Unimog, and that's why he was coming.

We spent three wonderful days together, introducing him to Pakistani cuisine and mangoes, both of which he loved. also enjoyed visiting some historic places in Lahore, where he purchased a special handmade rug for his wife and a unique Chinioti rocking chair for himself.

Regarding Unimog, his visit was a success. He shared some old photos from Gaggenau that showed Unimog 421 on the assembly line before they were shipped to Pakistan. René is the most knowledgeable person on Unimog I have ever spoken to, and he generously shared great stories about his visits around the globe and the truly remarkable vehicles he had built. He signed us up as members of the Unimog Club to represent our country and expressed his desire to donate the Unimog 421 ambulance that was used in Pakistan to the , to preserve its history of service. He also shipped us some hard-to-find spare parts, and we supported his mission to save the classic Unimogs 421 & 416. All in all, it was a fantastic trip, and René thoroughly enjoyed his stay. It was an honor for us to host him.

We received the news of René's sudden death this morning. Our deepest sympathy goes to Luba, his sons and Mark, and the team at .

Thank you ITalkRobot for customising them in my name "DeeDee" and "UniDee". They also made these on orders with customisation and have developed it in 2 sizes, Definitely a great item to gift a mogger 😉.

Day 6.2 "Ganz and Pishukan"

Its time to leave Jiwani and had towards Ganz, another 19kms drive to exciting place for us to explore. Wish I could've more time to further explore into these areas but we are all stuck with timelines and bounded chains that we can't feel and break but atleast we break these chains few times to make us feel the essence of freedom, to connect with nature and to thank almighty Allah for his blessings.

I spent sometime at Ganz in golden hours, walking on the beach and capturing the moments to share later with family and friends. The most beautiful beach so far.

Left Ganz for Gwadar and enroute one wrong turn took us to another exciting place Pishukan jetty. Yes the Unimog was standing right on Jetty with 100s of colourful boats on all 3 sides. Wind was still heavy and sun was about to set. We get of the truck and asked a passing by boat guy if we can find a place for Tea and to our surprise he invited us on his boat for a cup of tea and who will say no to such an offer. We hopped over 2 boats to reach 3rd one where freshly prepared tea was waiting for us. Had a chit chat with a boat crew and came to know that these boats are used in trade with Iran. And more surprisingly the captain and crew are all from KPK which is 2500kms far from this place. Not only the boat we were invited to but almost 90% of these trade boats staff is from KPK.

Left Pishukan jetty after having fantastic tea and enjoying sunset, we had of to Gwadar to call it a day very well spent. From Pishukan to Gwadar was all night drive and crossing of dunes right on road that Unimog enjoyed.

I am sure there is lot more to explore in these areas and we should have brought with us ample time.

Make your next stop to gwadar and beyond and I am sure winter is the best time to enjoy.

Day 7 is our return journey with stop over at Buzi top and Princess of hope. Stay tuned.

Enjoy pictures and video clips for now.
