Dam if it had a 6.4 in it then it might be worth the 525,000
Still sick tho. But you would think for an armor car why would you want to you flammable gas instead of less flammable diesel tank under you
???

I am surprised that its a gasser, for the cost and its intended purpose, and vehicle weight I think a multifuel diesel setup would be called for. Some shiek in the middle east will prob buy it....

The interior shots have some good ideas for mods though. I like the passenger side computer screen..
Where is the roof mounted SMG though??

Agreed, that's a lot of weight and a tricked out 6.4l would go WAY faster for outrunning the bad guys.

Some great ideas in that thing - love the speaker setup in the rear doors. The monitor in the passenger side of the dash is very cool - not sure about the tambor door covering it but it looks good. Be nice to have that carpeting and leather too - very expensive! Looks like a good candidate for the turbo kit....

If the tanks full, i dont see how it will blow up (not many vapors). lol Diesel has a flashpoint of 105 degrees, so either way, itll still light on fire when theirs heat present. The only down fall, is diesel burns hotter when lit on fire.


That trucks sweet, but thats alotta weight to be pushed for a stock v-10. But it doesnt say if its turboed or S/C. Id imagine for a half a million dollars that it should come turboed or S/C'd

Pretty cool. Imagine what kind of gas mileage that thing would get?!! Then again if you can afford it I guess that would not make any difference.

You guys and girls in these forums have constantly been brainwashed into believing a V-10 has about 135 horsepower and couldn't bust it's way out of a large wet paper bag. It just ain't so. Sure, you're not going to do 0 to 60 in 13 seconds with a V-10 in a heavy armored vehicle. But you also won't be doing 0 to 60 in 13 seconds with a diesel. And even worse yet.... if you have a 6.0L diesel, you're lucky to ever get to 60 before it decides to break down again.

I'd put a 6.7l Cummins in it for that kind of dough. Cause that's a lot of weight for a stock V-10
