I wonder if it burns as fast as a humvee does. I’ve seen multiple HUMVEES burn to the ground in less than 10 minutes.

That's because they let Army grunts work on them.

Looks awesome. Needed a 3rd on this trip to give a report on riding in the back seat!

Possibly very true.

Chase, did someone stuff the spare in the back?

Looking at it, I wonder how much that windshield cost. It's basically like a Jeep windshield, I can only imagine rocks hitting it on the highways.... ugh....

It appears that there is quite a bit of Toyota parts bin sharing in this thing. No need to reinvent the wheel, pun intended.

80 series diff lock too.

Stopped for gas. We got our first “nice hummer!” today, no doubt a sign of things to come… There’s been a couple of Toyota’s ridding up on us and drifting into my lane while they take photos though so that’s cool. We’re cruisin along at 62mph most of the time. I can’t find the satellite phone so hopefully it’s with Sergey and didn’t get stolen in transit. Customs went off without a hitch thank goodness. After dealing with one of two new batteries being dead she fired right up and we were on our way.

The interior has a dated custom quality to it that is eerily similar to markofskis new limo.
The size of the rear hatch support struts… Biggest in this history of automobiles and they need to be replaced. No part number sadly… All for now, more to come…

How long does it take to get from 0 -60 in that thing?
