>>28993 That price is actually cheaper than I first thought; the dashboard could cost that much within a good government contract.
I'll tell Obama about those geese but he'll probably have the secret service train one to come bite me. Funny point there, Grim.

£ 300.000 / $ 485,586 / € 385.737

From what I hear, your government (secret service) can better spend it on this ->

>>28982 Love the way that thing comes out of a bad parking spot.
What will these set the taxpayer back? Maybe we can borrow some more money from China and then turn around and use them against them.

Dingo / Buffalo MRAP

even the HMMWV isn't designed to cope with that kind of explosive.

Still if I had to go cross country plowing through snow, I rather do it with the Ghe-O (only 3.2 ton) than the Marauder (15 ton). However if I had to cross a wasteland filled with zombies and mines...well MRAP it is! ;)

>>28982 I watched that one too. Impressive beast. Not really a fair comparison with the 7lbs of explosives. An H3 (and an H2 for that matter) were never meant to be anything but posh commuter vehicles. An H1 would be a better comparison.

not a competition, really, as they tackle two different fields.

The 1967 Ed Roth "Mega Cycle"

Looks like a forklift style steering wheel. Straddle it between your legs.

11/02/13(Mon)19:51

>>22228 wtf is that? I hope the steering wheel can be adjusted cause that looks mighty uncomfortable.

Is it a prototype? Made in America I presume?

Did you download this gem yet Grim? I have no doubt that GG knows this one.

07/02/13(Thu)18:08

JC guessed Make AND model, you only make (manufacturer)...
and now all, so 1500 to you!

07/02/13(Thu)18:05

JC gets 500 points more than me for the same level of guess but I have to list the year and model?

KR175 is my guess on the model and the year I am guessing is a 1954.

07/02/13(Thu)16:35

>>22180 1959 Frisky Family Three (yay, 1500 points to me)

Not really fair, considering I downloaded all the pix for this thread, Oldballs ;D

>>22179 Yes, it's a Messerschmitt (500 points to you) but which one and maybe the year?
