These trucks are incredible. They're designed to traverse the glaciers covering Iceland which is why it looks like someone fed it steroids on the assembly line. They're just cool. It's photo of the week on the blog.

 

Maybe that one had to recuse this one

 

Now those are cool. Really like the 6 wheeled one.

 

Great. Yet another thing that I absolutely must have.

 

I wouldn't mind having one of those either

 

Noticed a Tundra on that barren Tundra landscape. I also owned a Tundra. Cool Pictures

 

That's a neat truck. Those huge meats only take 25 PSI!

 

I was stationed up there in the late 80's into the 90's and those Icelanders know how to set a truck up. These are actually tame by the standards i saw while there. I would love to ship my truck up there to have them set it up like these. They are truly awesome and damn near Bullett/Glacier proof.

 

is the rear axle a tag axle, or is it powered?

 

I guess it all depends. I know Mercedes made something like that 6 wheeler and in 6 wheel drive I believe the power goes 20/60/20.

 

It is powered.

(ps. i live in iceland )

 

That 6x6 in action.

 

I am not a lifted truck/massive tire guy, but that truck is pretty awesome.

 

THIS is an Icelandic Bigfoot

Actually they are designed to impress the rich tourists - who probably get a bit annoyed when they find all sorts of conventional 4x4s already there.
