Jeffy Recall? -- by Paradox



ARM Commanders were dismayed to learn that a fault in the electrical systems of the J7J-Jeffy fast scout vehicle led to internal short circuits and in many cases, fires. ARM R+D has recalled the unit from ARM databanks, and has released the nanolathe blueprints for the new model. Said ARM Commander HArDTiME_77:

"Yeah, you know, I was sending out a couple of my guys over this hill, right? Saw a couple of those flouring Core metalhead's metal extractors on the other side. So I revved up a few Jeffies to take 'em out, right? Well, they cross over the hill and I start hearing all this screaming over my communications. Something about fire. Now, I know for a fact that this Core flourhead doesn't have any Pyros or nothing out there, so I go over to check it out. Sure enough, there's not a single pattern for miles, but a couple of the Jeffies are burning. Weirdest flour I've ever seen."

ARM citizens who have purchased Jeffy-class vehicles for recreational use are advised to return the faulty vehicles to the nearest army surplus stockyard for a trade-in.

The new model not only includes the fix to the internal electrical systems, but also an optional tinted moon-roof, extra cup holder, and pinstripe for a new "sporty" life. The Jeffy is being marketed to the civilian mass market with the following wide-band feed commercial:
