Default Need some help

I would love to find out what kind of vehicle is featured in this video.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=adcdbfIoeW4

I would love to have one someday. Here are some small pics I got online from the video.

Those look a little too heavy. The one I want looks a tad lighter. Plus I don't think it is made in the US.

That's because it's an MRAP and it's made in the U.S.

This one is cool also it's an Internat CXT.

Honestly I'm not sure what that specifc model is but I do know that
Barnes & Nobles and Borders have books on different armored trucks
, maybe you can find it there.

The center clearance in that thing sucks compared to a Mog.

It's pretty bad a$$ looking though.

**Edit, maybe the center clearance isn't as bad as I first thought. That thing looks roomy in the back.

I thought it would be a different and cool rig to make into a camper.

If I could afford a Mog I definitely would get one and especially that one. Maybe after I ramp up at my new job I will look into one. I would want one like your radio rig.

What do you mean "if" you could afford a Mog? I paid $6500 for mine. It's not like it costs as much as one of Unimoger's pimped out Mogs.

If we are talking crazy then this is more my rig.

Badger I know you did but one in that vid might cost a bit more. Unimoger likes his in pristine shape.

It is called a "Kasper" (Casper) It is produced here in South Africa for the Army by a weapons manufacturer here. It is virtually land mine proof due to the design of the under belly. It is "V" shaped to deflect explosions from underneath. If I recall, it is powered by a V10 ADE turbo diesel. I have seen a few of these, and the smaller version known as "Buffel" (buffalo), with AK47 bullets melted into the wind screens. Standing next to one of these gives you chills because of their size and the war stories behind each one of them.
