A thousand times NO!! I had some of them at Yuma Test Station/Yuma Proving Ground in the early 1960s. About 1962. Right after they came out. OD bottoms, white tops. Crank up windows, no air conditioning. They fell apart under off-road use. The post commander restricted them to "on road use only". So, I went down to the salvage yard and "procured" some old M38(flat hooded) jeeps. We used those out in our R&D test areas which were about as off-road as you can get. Only restriction on their use was that no new parts could be used on them but there were plenty of parts including tires in the salvage yard. The Jeeps were a lot handier. You could jump in and out of them (no doors) and thoroughly proven as off-road performers. We used them on weekends for hunting. (R&R) Just make sure to wash the blood off before Monday morning.
