Unimog 2010
The Unimog 2010 is a vehicle of the Unimog series made by German manufacturer Daimler-Benz from June 1951 to August 1953 in the Mercedes-Benz Gaggenau plant. It is a technical copy of its predecessor, the Unimog 70200. Despite being sold by Mercedes-Benz dealerships, the Unimog 2010 did not feature the brand's „Mercedes-star“ emblem. Instead, it was solely sold under the Unimog brand, having the ox-head-Unimog emblem on the bonnet; only vehicles purchased by the Swiss army lack the Unimog emblem and have no branding at all (as seen on the right). In total, 5,846 units were produced, and five different models were available. All Unimog 2010 vehicles have a wheelbase of and a canvas roof; a closed cab was not available as a factory option. The name „Unimog 2010“ originates from the German supply firm Erhard & Söhne, which manufactured the Unimog prototypes – all technical drawings, parts and tools of that firm had the part number ''2010'', which is said to be the reason ...

Gaggenau is a town in the district of Rastatt, in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. It is located some 8 km northeast of Baden-Baden. History Gaggenau was first mentioned in local records in 1243 under the name "Gaggenaw". The present district of Bad Rotenfels is even older, having been mentioned in a royal donation letter in 1041. Gaggenau remained a small village until the 19th century: Originally part of the Ufgau, it came under the jurisdiction of the marquisate of Baden in the 13th century, and was included in the territory claimed by the Margrave of Baden-Baden in 1535, which held it until 1689.

Mercedes-Benz OM636 Engine
The Mercedes-Benz OM 636 is a diesel engine that was produced by Daimler-Benz from 1948 until 1990. Being the successor to the OM–138, the OM–636 has been used both as a passenger car engine and as an industrial engine. It saw its first use in the Boehringer Unimog in 1948, prior to its official introduction in the 1949 Mercedes-Benz W–136. Throughout the 1950s, the OM–636 was widely used in the Mercedes-Benz W 120. In 1958, it was succeeded by the OM 621 passenger car engine. However, after the introduction of the OM 621, the OM 636 was kept in production for industrial vehicles such as small lorries, boats, and combine harvesters, until 1990. The abbreviation ''OM'' means ''Oelmotor'' (oil engine), and stands for a Daimler-Benz engine that uses any kind of light fuel oil as fuel (diesel engine). History Daimler-Benz began developing the OM–636 during World War II, and had completed the developing process by 1948. According to Carl-Heinz-Vogler, a former Daimler- ...

Unimog 70200
The Unimog 70200 is the first series production model of the Unimog series, made by . It was manufactured in Boehringer's Göppingen plant from June 1948 to April 1951. In total, 600 units of the 70200 have been made. Manufacture of the Unimog was sold to Daimler-Benz in October 1950, where it was modified for mass production. This mass production optimised Unimog is known as Unimog 2010. The name ''Unimog 70200'' was chosen because of Boehringer's cost centre. All Unimog 70200 vehicle identification numbers begin with ''70200''. Minuscules were used to differentiate between certain models. It is said that approximately 100–120 Unimog 70200s still exist today. History Development Originally, the Unimog was invented by German engineer Albert Friedrich, who worked for Daimler-Benz during World War II, designing aircraft engines. After World War II, Friedrich, now unemployed, wanted to develop an agricultural vehicle in case the Morgenthau Plan would become reality. Frie ...

Wheelbase
In both road and rail vehicles, the wheelbase is the horizontal distance between the centers of the front and rear wheels. For road vehicles with more than two axles (e.g. some trucks), the wheelbase is the distance between the steering (front) axle and the centerpoint of the driving axle group. In the case of a tri-axle truck, the wheelbase would be the distance between the steering axle and a point midway between the two rear axles. Vehicles The wheelbase of a vehicle equals the distance between its front and rear wheels. At equilibrium, the total torque of the forces acting on a vehicle is zero. Therefore, the wheelbase is related to the force on each pair of tires by the following formula: :F_f = mg :F_r = mg where F_f is the force on the front tires, F_r is the force on the rear tires, L is the wheelbase, d_r is the distance from the center of mass (CM) to the rear wheels, d_f is the distance from the center of mass to the front wheels (d_f + d_r = L), m is the mass ...
