Overview of 1996 Stewart & Stevenson M1079 For Sale by Owner

It’s not every day that a true-blue military vehicle comes our way, and this 1996 Stewart & Stevenson M1079 Camper Truck is exactly that. Built as part of the U.S. military’s Family of Medium Tactical Vehicles program, the M1079 was designed to operate in extreme environments where reliability, protection, and self-sufficiency are non-negotiable. This example features the factory enclosed van body, effectively functioning as a camper-style truck originally intended to provide safe accommodation and operational support in active conflict zones. Power comes from a Caterpillar turbocharged diesel engine paired with an automatic transmission, delivering the torque and durability expected of a mission-critical platform. With its imposing presence, military-grade construction, and unmistakable character, this M1079 is guaranteed to turn heads wherever it goes. And for those who enjoy camping or overlanding in truly remote areas, where encounters with wildlife are more than just a possibility, few vehicles offer the same level of security and confidence as this purpose-built military truck.

Exterior and Interior

We’re told that this hulking 1996 Stewart & Stevenson M1079 Camper Truck has been repainted in black, which only serves to turn up the menacing vibe that it already portrays. Sitting tall on its massive 20-inch black wheels shod in Goodyear 395/85 MV/T tires, there’s also a central tire inflation system that lets you air them down for traversing soft surfaces like sand or snow. Then, with the flick of a switch, you can pump them back up for tarmac or hard surfaces. Now isn’t that neat? Thanks to the vehicle’s high ground clearance and short overhangs, you need not worry about the terrain either. You’ve also got an original Stewart & Stevenson winch to help you get out of particularly sticky situations, or help others who have ventured out of their depth. The gray and black interior of this 1996 Stewart & Stevenson M1079 Camper Truck is spartan, we won’t lie. But look at it like a blank canvas, waiting to be customized to your taste. There’s enough space in the rear, and thanks to those windows, you’ve got a decent amount of natural light as well. Whether you want to make it luxurious or keep it minimalistic, the choice is yours.

Engine

Power comes from a Caterpillar 3116 6.6-liter turbocharged inline-six diesel engine, renowned for its torque output, reliability, and long service intervals. The engine is paired with an Allison 7-speed automatic transmission and a two-speed transfer case, delivering full-time four-wheel drive with high and low range capability. Heavy-duty solid axles, leaf-spring suspension, and air-over-hydraulic brakes allow the M1079 to carry substantial payloads while maintaining stability over rough terrain. A 24-volt electrical system and military-grade driveline components further underscore the truck’s original role as a dependable, mission-critical vehicle.
