German Fire Truck: 1960 Unimog 404

Off-Road Hauler: 1972 Mercedes Unimog 4×4

If you were to ask one of my closest car buddies which vehicle I am most likely to attempt to buy, he would shout out “UNIMOG!” immediately. Now, of course, there are no immediate plans to own one of… more»

Overland Legend Lost: 1965 Unimog M404

Ford Every Stream: 1973 Mercedes-Benz Unimog 406

Rusty But Worthy: 1975 Mercedes-Benz Unimog

Fire Brigade Doka: 1989 Unimog 1300

Swiss Edition: 1963 Mercedes Unimog S404

How do you assign value to a rig like a Unimog? It’s a tough call for me, personally, as I don’t have the kind of property that would demand a go-anywhere military spec vehicle, and I already have one… more»

Rebuilt Then Parked: 1951 Mercedes Unimog

This is an unusual find in the world of Unimogs, as we typically see the later models pop up for sale. The seller calls this a 411 model, which would make it an updated version of the 401/402, if… more»

Government Excess: 2011 Freightliner Unimog

Curiously, the Mercedes-derived Unimog seems to pop up every now and again as a piece of government surplus. I say curiously because for years, it seemed as if these diesel-powered brutes were mildly exotic, only appearing for sale when… more»
