Army Jeep found in the Desert

I'm betting Dubai. People in Dubai love spending money on pointless crap.

Spy Photos: Ginormous Jeep Spotted in Dubai
Reader Paul Wade sent us these snaps. If you look closely behind the grille you can see there is an engine, steering wheel, front bumper, air cleaner, axles, brakes, and steering components. Might be based off an old military 2 1/2-ton truck. It looks as though this thing is going to actually drive when it's done! The operator will peer through the slats in the grille! I suspect they built the body using the smaller Jeep tub to the left as a model and slapped it on a large quarry truck of some sort and set it rolling on what look like aircraft tires. Wild. I would love to see this thing in person and, gawd, to drive it would simply be awesome. Sooo, Sheik whoever-you-are that is having this thing built, please send your private jet to pick me up. I've got my camera and I'm ready to go.-John Cappa
