I cant see any REAL good use of the turing. Pluss in a combat situation it would feal like hours to set up that turn.

Pluss...just a personal transport? 2 seets... I Dont see any good reason teh Military would want one.

But other then that quite cool.

Couldn't agree with you more.

I really love that Gladiator truck and I think there is a real market for something like that.

If the Rescue comes out it'll crush the Hummer. It's based off the Ram Power Wagon Were talkin solid axles front and rear,electronic lockers in both,In cab electronic sway bar disconect, 37"MT/R's and the best part the Cummins 600 diesel.

soo true, if your off road, and dont always have the space to do a full turn it can be very usefull, plus for the city you can just go straight into a parking spot and then just turn 90° lol, i think its pretty cool, but for sure a toy like that will cost a fortune, what happenned to the Willys concept?

I don't like the way the 4ws id set up on the hurricane. I think if they were going ti make a 4ws Jeep the Silverado and have a over ride switch so it can steer like a monster truck
