Only if you put spikes on the body and wheels and run em over, Road Warrior style.

Looks like it has a slightly high center of balance though... don't know what the tip factor would be on one of those. I think it's freakin cool as hell looking... way cooler than a fairy ass H2 yuppie tank. Not to mention the smash factor. You get in a fender bender in that thing and you don't have to worry about your insurance paying for damages... just a coffin for the poor fucker you "bumped" into. mooohahaha

They sell for $90K - $100K, depending on options... I work for International and they've been hyping the Hell out those CXT things. Like the average Joe-Schmoe production plant hourly worker will be able to afford one...  I wish International would update & bring back the Scout. I'd be seriously interested in one of those... |

It was one of the original SUV's, before there ever was such a term. They were discontinued in 1980. They were about the size of a Jeep Cherokee/Grand Cherokee...maybe just a bit smaller. The had(and still do have) a pretty loyal following... Do a Google search and you should find some info. BTW- I work at International's School Bus Plant in Tulsa, OK. One of the "honchos" a couple of links up the chain from our plant manager told a group of us from the bus plant not too long ago that he was pushing hard "from the inside" to indeed bring back the Scout. He was promoted a short time after that. We haven't heard anything else regarding a Scout resurrection...yet. |
