YouTube - USA6x6 truck 012

Kind of (I stress the kind of) cool. But way to long even with the all wheel steer. And even though it seems to be a prototype the roll over protection that these guys are relying on is nill. IT DOES HAVE ROCKIES THOUGH!!!

Pretty awesome for what it's designed for, I sure hope they grab some chromoly and make some nice rollcage stuff, I can't imagine the amount of strength it'd rewuire to hold that thing up on its roof.

How many times could the guy say "USA 6x6" in the video?


I will say that for a 6x6 I was impressed... it had some axle articulation thats for sure.
