Who owns this beauty?

Hopefully nobody here owns that dumb thing.

Some people have more dollars than sense...

Looks like a waste of time, $'s and energy. I'm trying to figure out how to keep the same wheel base but shorten the bed end by 12"-18" & still be able to use it a towing rig for my boondock trailer. Shorter/Lighter is my dream, not longer/heavier, with an astronomical turning radius. JMO

If I had the money, I would rather do an extended cab version with a shorter wheelbase. Just my 2 cents.

I just dont understand 1. where people get they money for this stuff 2. why?

South Florida is full of overpaid yuppies and trust fund babies...And Covid has made it worse. Everyone with money is moving down here. Real estate is crazy right now. You've got people paying 20-30% over asking

Triggered. It’s like a silk hat on a pig. I love Gladiators, but this is just senseless.

On the other hand, as has been said in many other previous posts, the Jeep modification experience is entirely about an individual’s taste.

In the end, I’m satisfied by the fact that someone not only has the funds to buy the truck, but to modify it on this level…keep it up, whomever you are!!

If someone bought it and modified it themselves i'd actually have some respect for them. It would be their vision, blood, sweat and tears. But these are custom made at a shop in Hollywood, Florida. A yuppie with too much money goes in and buys it. There's no personal time put into it.

I have a functional question for some of the more "mechanically" inclined.

This thing almost reminds me of a "half-track" from WWII. If all six wheels pull, then how would they handle the stress of the rear two axles pulling and turning in a short circle? Would they have to have the rear wheels "turn" much like the large busses in the city?? Or would 2 wheel High simply have one of the rear axles pulling?

Jay Leno.

Funny, I do not think Jay Leno would even bite on something like this. He seems to gravitate to either vintage or "one of one" unique items and does not jump on every modified thing that hits the scene. I know he will feature items like this on his Youtube channel, but that is usually showcasing someone else who owns it.

I find it intriguing - I would like to see the how it all works- Would be a bitch to drive in the snow- or mud. If you locked the rear it would not turn at all.

But on a plus side it should have a higher payload!

You know, if you squint your eyes just a tad you can see half-tracks and a .50 cal mounted in the bed.

I went to SO FLA JEEPS to look at the piece of junk they call an Apocalypse. Whoever built it must have been blind as these weld marks are an absolute joke. I would NEVER buy anything from them.

Here's Jay Leno driving one

 

[dcmdon]

This one?

That's hideous.

That Ford econoline behind it is actually kind of interesting. They don't have the cache of the Mercedes. But you can get it with factory 4wd and a 3.5L twin turbo V6 with 350 hp and with a tune get well over 400 hp.

Jay Leno.

I don't think Leno owns one. But I think he drove one in his YouTube show.

Either way. Leno gets a bye. He's such an insane car nut. he likes everything. EVen crap. Ha.

I saw a similar one this weekend in San Diego made by next level for $150k
