    good on you sir there is nothing better in life than knowing your prepared and it's a really nice looking ride . That would look so nice driving through a river of snowflake tears .. i don't see a turret mount or even a mounted gun slot maybe that could be next or a row of freedom lighting to shine your path or just to blind your enemy's side mounted mini guns ftw ?

    FIFY
     
    You could put some AR550 steel around the bed of the truck and mount a turret inside that. Lol.

    Put a nice 240B and have storage bins for extra ammo.

    Doc

    With a rotating bullet proof bubble turret like the old bombers.

    i saw one of the 4 wheel versions bombing around Nashua a few months ago.....its a bad ass looking ride for sure.
     

    - No turret or commander gun mount. So Plan A is to roll the reinforced window down and shoot out of it? From their site:

    "Radiator, battery and fuel tank are all wrapped in kevlar. Underside is also protected against explosive devices."

    Someone needs to tell them that kevlar isn't going to help against most rifle rounds and wrapping it on the radiator actually diminishes the kevlar weave. Went out of their way to 'bulletproof' it but I see exposed suspension and mechanical parts just from the side view that will make this thing a standing roadblock in no time. Not sure how this was supposed to take an explosion other than they put some plating underneath and curved it outwards.

    - Cabin area seems very small compared to all the unused bed space which you cant get to when its moving. Internal storage is nothing, and will fit 4 people in gear uncomfortably as well as having all their gear hang up/drag on/knock into everything inside. Ideal vehicle number is 6 as you have the driver stay inside to drive, the commander on the passanger side with a MG on the comms, designating targets and movement, and 2x2 fireteams to manuever on target.

    - No IR lighting or any sort of comms package. Forward looking FLIR only; they couldnt even figure out that they could get the FLIR unit that turns 360 degrees and put it on the roof somewhere and tie a gun mount to it.

    - Gold rims really say, don't mind me over here. I'm also pretty sure the engine is LOUD.AS.FUCK.

    - The size of those rims, with 6x runflats is going to make that thing accelerate/decelerate like a fucking asteroid. You need 1300HP just to get it to 50mph.

    - You better hope your threat isn't more than 50 miles from you because this thing gets 3mpg, and noone figured out how to mount any sort of jerry can holders to it.

    - I'm sure you're paying 20k for a smoke screen that could be done with 2x screening grenades while driving down the road. But you probably need the smokescreen as its not like its set up for anyone to fucking shoot out of the back of it anyways.

    - The bumper on my 2 door Jeep is bigger than whats on this thing.

    Whoever bought this is literally retarded.

    And leaving that HUGE hole to access both rear drive axles seems like a vulnerability for a "bulletproof" SHTF vehicle. But what would I know.

    Yep, Im betting an API 50 caliber would fuck it up in its tracks, but the rich Hollywood people who buy one wont know that until its too late, LOL.

    2" titanium steel.
