context_page_description: The M54 5-ton 6×6 truck was the basic cargo model of the M39 Series truck. It was designed to transport a 10,000 lb, 14-foot-long cargo load off-road in all weather. In on-road service the load weight was doubled.
  The M54 was the primary heavy cargo truck of the U.S. Army and U.S. Marine forces during the Vietnam War, and was also used by the U.S. Navy, U.S. Air Force, and ARVN forces.
  The M39 Series began to be replaced by the M809 series in 1970, followed by the M939 series in 1982, but continues to serve in other nations' armed forces around the world.
