I bet gas milage would suck big time.

Cody_288 01-07-2008 08:48 PM

EFFF a tow rig, I would wheel the piss out of it!

jtslmn720 01-07-2008 08:52 PM

not for that price, i could get something so much better for half that

SparkYZ 01-08-2008 02:42 PM

Pricy, yes. It is however, a MANLY vehicle. That thing is bona-fide BADASS!

Says it's has 2 300 liter tanks which can get it almost 2000 km. Converted to US units....

600 liters = 158 gallons
2000 kilometers = 1242 miles

Rough mileage = 1242/158 = 8

I mean it's only got a 6 cylinder turbo engine that has 168 bhp. Torque isn't specified anywhere, but I would bet this things gearing is crazy.

But yeah. I completely agree with that. You could have give good shop 100 grand and they could probably build you something from the ground up that was very similar.

gearing on most mogs is in the 7.2:1 range.

Yes, a new rig could be done... and I am thinking a Semi Truck for me, but this is one BAD ASS rig! You have to admit someone had lots of time, and great ideas!

Id rather have a superduty.

Though it is cool but not practical

94greenmachine 01-08-2008 08:00 PM

nah.,.... keep your superduty... i'll take my dodge cummins diesel, or an International CTX

zabeard 01-08-2008 08:01 PM

its CXT....


As for the Dodge that will work too

94greenmachine 01-08-2008 08:15 PM
