This thing makes a Land Cruiser look like an old Mazda B1600.

A giant, luxury, 6 wheeled pickup truck made by Mercedes Benz ... those are going to sell well in Texas.

Lack of knowledge – by instruction. Lack of skills – by practice. Lack of experience – by time doing it.


One cannot cure:

Stupidity – nothing helps! Anti hunting sentiments – nothing helps! Put-‘n-Take Outfitters – money rules!

Of course the ultimate proof of how good the truck is, is when you see "terrs" driving them around with a 12.6 or a 20mm mounted on the back. Big Grin

Now who would want to own a wannabe Cruiser?

By the looks of it that Merc will fit sideways on the back of my Toyota Raider crew cab and I'd still be able to do what that show-off did with the Merc.

Then we put the crew cab with the Merc on it on a Cruiser. That's what I'll call impressive Wink

If you can afford the tag you can afford to fly the parts in with a mechanic from the factory Big Grin

Jaco,

I believe they're in excess of US$500K so ridiculously priced or should that be ovrpriced but nevertheless, it's a stunning vehicle.

The machine should do real well in Texas and could be the new toy for gang banging/drug dealers.

On the topic of ridiculous vehicles for PHs to drive us around in. How about this one?

Well at least, using the Marauder, you could hunt Chad and even Somalia. Big Grin

A scary thing is how the Hummer suffered, indicating just why so many US troops were hammered in Humvees. Flat bottomed, taking the full brunt of any IED blast.

Charl and Pegleg hit on my instant reaction. Otherwise, a great concept. Now what if you put a track on those two rear wheels? Like the old half-tracks. Now we have only two tires? Not nearly as sexy though, at least for the add.

Tire wise Michelin makes a tire that is airless and tubeless. not flat-able.

Tire has been in the testing for a number of years now. Not sure when it will hit the market.

Other that the 500K price tag holding you back, we have solved the tire issue for you.
