Thoughts? The article says it perfectly "The only small thing is its payload. And the amount of common sense it makes."

I think this thing is so rad.

That's VERY nice. I didn't read all of it, but that has to be the most clearance I've ever seen. You see how tucked up the differentials are ? Not to mention all the other features. It's no less than fantastic IMO.

Sweet engineering, -at it's best!

 

18.1 inches of ground clearance. I wish I had 450k to buy one of these.

 

That's wild!

Thanks for the link.

 

It uses Ohlin remotes reservoirs , -suspension components. Top notch right there.

Reminds me of my old Husky. Had Ohlin piggy backs. Always a comfy landing.

 

 

On a related note, a few weeks ago on Top Gear (American Version), they did a segment on the 4 wheel version of the AMG G63 SUV.

In the episode, Tanner Faust was placed on an army base, and tried to outrun the forces sent to catch him. The AMG was a beast and pulled like a supercar. Despite many 100+ mph blasts down narrow dirt roads, Tanner could not outrun the Army choppers. But he was grinning from ear to ear whenever he pushed the go pedal.
