Hmm.....that's good question. Probably just like any other wheeled mechanic unit.

Not any different than what you saw in your current job. Mechanics work hard, and support vehicles get abused, so they work even harder.

You can try searching in the answers search. There are a lot of post on 91B.

I was a wheel vehicle mechanic back when it was 63W. I loved it. But I hear that it has changed since changing to 91B.
