Just in Time for the Inauguration of the Kyoto Treaty

This just in from Bob Harris.

The latest in automotive systems: The Bad Boy, a ten-foot-tall $225,000 3.5-ton personal vehicle twice the size of a Hummer. It’s equipped with infrared cameras that peer through darkness. The flat-nosed cab can be bulletproofed. The dash can include a satellite phone, a two-way radio and a global-positioning system all alongside DVD, MP3 and CD players and a flip-out LCD screen. For $750,000, buyers can get the fully loaded "NBC" version that can overpressure the cab to provide protection from fallout, or biological and chemical weapons.

The one weak spot, other than a demonstration of extreme avarice, is the 6.9 miles per gallon mileage. That is offset by the 58 gallon diesel tank, which gives the Bad Boy a 400 mile cruising radius.


Bushmaster 25 mm cannon not yet available as an option.
