Weird SUV thing at car lot

[VinceAtReal4x4s]

Passed one of those exotic used car lots near me and noticed something out front that I guess qualifies as a 4x4?

There were a few more of these on the same lot, with a couple G's and a Lambo to boot.

the International MXT when a Ford F550 just isn't big enough.

The MXT is a great concept.....I hope it is making money for the people who thought of it.......a pickup or SUV on a truck chassis......No not a pickup truck chassis...a real (lighter end) commercial truck chassis. Now I don,t give out good ideas like this often, but if there is a market for the MXT and I think it has a bigger brother? Why not one of you getting rich by buying up some 'de-mobbed' as we say in Britland......Stewart and Stevenson 4x4s and other ex Mil 6x6s and come up with something like this...get it right and your spare car for bumming around in could be a Bentley. I do like the idea of a car-like vehicle on a truck chassis as a mere teen I once saw in UK,s Custom Car (probably now defunct) magazine a guy who was by trade a skilled car bodybuilder and he had put his own 1940,s Bentley styled body on a Light End commercial truck chassis...all done in aluminium and complete with Diesel Engine.

There are companies that have converting surplus deuce and a halves for some time. Take a Deuce, cut the frame, loose and axle and install an M105 trailer bed. Makes for a large truck on a military platform and a reasonable cost. a quick search of "bobbed deuce" will give you lots of versions that have been done.

Not to hijack this thread, but you have seen the Windhawk, haven't you. 125mph offroad. Mmmmm....
