    Very impressive, indeed. It seemed to be only limited by the shoddy traction he was getting with those lame tires that quickly filled-up with mud. If it had some more aggressive "PitBull" brand tires on it, then it wouldn't have any trouble. Still, some of the terrain it was able to conquer is mind-boggling. I loved how the main chassis was able to be level no matter what angle the terrain was.

    I laughed at the CJ-5 Jeep that was trying to keep up with him. I could tell the driver was getting frustrated, as the other modified vehicle was making him look plain silly.

    Thanx for sharing, Billy. You always seem to find the most radical video's. This video in particular is a great find and very intriging to watch.

    Wow, really impressive. Now I'd like to see it drive 75MPH on the interstate, I'm guessing that will be less impressive. Either way, its super cool.

    Just think though...small car of motorcycle stops in front of you, you don't want to stop, lift front and rear all the way up and smile as you drive over

    It looks like he was copying the suspension and drive idea from the Warthog truck on Halo (xbox). I've often thought how cool it'd be to build/have something like that, but really, why would you ever really need it? Might would be something for the military to look into using but i'll just stick to my good old leaf springs and coils and so forth for now.

    RabidPony, I guess you didn't read all the threads to well.

    I know what I want from santa. I am thinking that it would have zero road handling ability. It also did not appear to like going from forward to reverse too much.

    As for the Jeep with him, I wouldn't want to ride shotgun in that thing, check out the passenger seat in the video going up the hill from the far away shot...
