But what about Bubba Joe's lifted F-350 dually with the extra huge exhaust pipes and big big American flags? He's a real patriot so there's no way it's worse than all of these vehicles.
Like, Trucknuts McGee isn't even allowed to move into a house that's too close to the school because he's driving something that's better rated as an Armored Personnel Transport than as a passenger car.
It's definitely starting here too. Of course it's not as bad as the US but seeing those huge Dodg Rams or whatever is becoming more common.
I guess I have to get used to it because I get annoyed every time I see such a car
If they are to drive an armored vehicle on public roads during peace time, even the military necessitates a vehicle commander standing out of his hatch with direct communications with the driver so he can have an overview of what's around the vehicle and compensate for the driver's blind spots. It is a basic safety rule.
Not totally true because my sierra 2500 has cameras in the front, shows you what’s immediately ahead if you’re going less than 15 mph or so. Beeps like crazy and vibrates your asshole if there’s something in front.
Typically they don't operate without infantry support, so they'd likely be in radio contact with forward observers. But yes, in some circumstances it could be a reconnaissance UAV.
I had to verify. My Ram Power Wagon is 1.45 meters (57”) at the hood height. I’d consider it closer to 60” at full top since it’s so squared off, but who’s counting….
