How's this for an offroad in the water monster!
Found it on a government surplus listing. It says it's a one of a kind! It also mentioned that the military only paid $1000 for it!?
I find that hard to believe!
It's for sale if anyone wants it!
Here's the link for more pics and info

how does it run?
Is it diesel?
Is street legal

RIC-H0 04-21-2005 06:38 PM

I doubt it's street legal(No Blinkers!LOL)
I'm sure it doesn't run very fast!
The dash seems to be partially torn out, but it may be a case of upwardly mobile rats!
The engine looks to be diesel, but it doesn't say!
Why, you want it!?

I woould probably have a hard time parallel parking on the street in the city

RIC-H0 04-21-2005 06:53 PM

Parallel parking is simple. Just park ontop of other vehicle. As long as you are parallel to the curb right!

It looks like something based off the LAV. With the top part of the armor off, it might do 70mph. Has a 6 cyl diesel I guess.

Come on don't disrespect the LAV like that

This looks like one of those Dakar race vehicles. Cool race, that when you can ever get to see it.

I assume the wheels in the rear, mounted high, are to give it some pretty good departure angle numbers .
