What is this country coming to?


From the NY Times; the graphic showed a comparision picture
between this vehicle, an M1 Abrams Tank, and a Tyrannasaurus Rex,all similar size)

DETROIT, Feb. 20

 

This had better be a joke... otherwise I'm finally moving to Europe - wait this thing is made in Europe! Arrgh!

 

Hmm- so Jason- are you saying that this one isn't in the running for our new tow vehicle?

Ha ha!

 

I think I'll buy one instead of building that new garage. In bad weather I'll just park the S under it

 

The Unimog has been around Europe for quite sometime. There are also a few in the US. It's not a new design that's
for sure. It has kind of a cult following too. Makes a really good all-terrain camper if you can afford it.

I wouldn't compare one to a Hummer or Excursion, it's
closer to a Ford F550 or F700.

I'd hate to see this bad boy coming up behind me in my Stook!

 

Great, thats all we were missing a soccer mom driving one of those.

 

At least we won't have to worry about door dings. The doors are too high

 

No, just broken windows.

 

And people using the windshield and bonnet as an emergency exit slide
