A truck with a serious passive-aggressive complex?

The correct question is will it go at all?

Solid rubber tires make my kidneys hurt although I'm starting to become a big fan of the fire-in-several-directions turret.

I would love to know how the sitting positions are arranged in that turret...

I think it's sitting position, singular. Just more than one MG for the vehicle commander to use.

The geometric shapes at the front and camoflauge add a certain modernist/art deco aesthetic to it as well. If Mies Van Der Hohe ever needed an armored car and I'm not saying he did, he'd have designed this one.

Definitely a one man turret.

What a piece of junk. Hexagonal headlight shields? [&:]
I cant get past the rivets. It looks like a soap box derby project.

2MPG -- higher than usual for GM!
[:D]
And it does look like a GM: ugly, ungainly, and BIG! Would sell like hotcakes!

I rather think it is two gallons per mile.
It is a Family SUV. It has a three child seat turret to keep the kids occupied with target practice on the local rodent population {in my city, rodents as tall as six feet are often seen. They are usually called pedestrians}. Like the old saying.....Drive Defensively, Buy a Tank!

Sounds like a great tag line for a SUV Commerical. And just look at those wheels! The twenty something kids would go crazy for them. Do they come in crome? With that paint job, all you have to do is put a nice Ipod player on board and I think you have a winner!
