That is nice. Never seen a 6 wheel G-Wagon before.

From the looks of it, it has been retrofitted with Portal Axles from the UniMog. See how high up the diff is in relation to the wheel hubs??

I have watched UniMog wheel off road and there is just no stopping them.

Most of the worlds militarys run Mercedes UniMog trucks including the USA.

5 diff locks? Damn.... where are all of them? Any idea on price? I'm guessing it is super car money.

just under half million...

>Front diff lock
>center diff lock (transfer case)
>middle axle diff lock
> rear axle diff lock
>and then the tricky one, the diff lock for the differential in-between the middle and rear axle.

You dont go rock crawling in this, you simply engage low-range, lock the diffs, and PUSH the mountain out of the way... :blurock:

We need a shootout between this, a ford raptor, a ram runner, a bowler exr s, and some dakar trucks like this land cruiser.

That is an awesome car. The jewelry touches on the interior are really something.

The downside to a car like that is that the value never goes down. What you pay for it now is what it is worth 5-10 years down the road if not a lot more.

I won't be picking one of those up on the used market that is for sure.
