I went to the Charleston AFB Air Expo and Force Protection had one of their Buffalos on display.

What a machine!  I was talking to a soldier who drives them and a company rep.  They told me that there have been zero fatalities in these vehicles.  One in Iraq was hit with double-stacked anti-tank mines.  Everybody survived and they were even able to drive the truck away.

Cool stuff!  Force Protection's website:

They had one getting ready to go to IRAQ, climbed in / on it, really cool vehicle.
Super thick glass on that sucker, cool gun racks and seats too

Buffalo of the animal variety is the first thing I thought too.

Pretty cool!
