Epic Military Vehicles Steal the Show at Concours in the Hills 2025!
Dive into the heart-pounding action of the 11th Annual Concours in the Hills, held on April 19, 2025, at the stunning Fountain Park in Fountain Hills, Arizona! Dubbed the "Greatest Car Show on Grass," this free, family-friendly spectacle drew over 50,000 enthusiasts, raising vital funds for Phoenix Children's Hospital's Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders and Cardiothoracic Surgery Support Fund. But amid the roar of 1,200+ collector cars—from million-dollar Ferraris and Lamborghinis to iconic muscle cars and off-road beasts—the military vehicles section truly commanded attention, blending raw power with historical grit.
Picture this: A convoy of armored titans lining the lush, lakeside grass under the majestic McDowell Mountains. At the forefront? A battle-scarred M35A2 2.5-ton cargo truck, its olive-drab frame echoing WWII supply lines, with a V8 growl that turns heads. Nearby, the hulking M548 tracked cargo carrier rumbles to life, its armored hull a nod to Vietnam-era resilience, perfect for hauling gear across rugged terrain. Don't miss the M113 armored personnel carrier, a Vietnam War legend that transported troops through jungles and deserts—its aluminum armor gleamed in the Arizona sun, drawing crowds eager to climb aboard and feel the tracks' vibration.
For aviation fans, the helicopter lineup was unreal: Civilian birds like sleek Bells shared space with military heavy-hitters, including a UH-60 Blackhawk, its twin rotors slicing the air in mock demos, and an AH-64 Apache attack chopper, loaded with Hellfire missile stubs that evoke modern battlefield dominance. These aren't dusty museum pieces; they're polished showstoppers, restored by passionate vets and collectors, complete with interactive displays sharing tales of valor and engineering marvels.
Beyond the mil-spec muscle, the event buzzed with over 100 vendor booths offering parts, memorabilia, and grub from 18+ food trucks. Whether you're a gearhead, history buff, or just love big machines, this show proves military vehicles aren't just relics—they're rolling legends fueling tomorrow's heroes.
