Milcots? Really thats what they bought? I wouldnt call them workhorses, an HL is a workhorse. A milcot is more like a pony that pulls kids around at petting zoos.

They are calling them MILCOTS but I think they are those trucks that you had the picture of. It looks like its just a genereic term for green civvi trucks with a new bumper. They also said "medium-sized" which the chevy's arent.

I'll get a picture of a Milcot for ya on monday, they are already in the system and they are a newer version on the chevs.
