I don't think they were talking about speed....

I think the whole thread was posted in regards to SIZE.

I would love to buy a Unimog in Pickup form but sadly most of it would go to waste. I believe they sell them through Freightliner over here.

That Turbo Caravan doesn't surpise me at all. Those buggers were quick right out of the box.

That is the biggest POS I have ever seen. Is anyone familiar with roll-over ratings? This one gets a 9.5 on a scale of 1-5. Looks fairly rugged, but I bet it costs enough to keep most people from wanting to scratch the paint.

It says it started out as a Unimog. Is that the same thing as a Gelandewagen(sp?)? Typical German engineering - functional=ugly. The more functional, the uglier it is.
