Perfect for those little jaunts to the 7-11 in 6 foot of snow.

Wow, unimogs are so very rare, and some of the craziest 4x4's in the world. Those axles are crazy how they com in in the top of the wheel....

I'm fairly sure he could drive over a 944 in that thing...

I'd take the Unimog over a Hummer any day. Fugly in a cute sort of way, where the Hummers are just plain fugly.

Dude it could drive over a 944 without even damaging it

The wheels are way above my roofline. When I go out later I'll park next to it for a comparison.

I also wanted to post it so that all the Anti-SUV gob****es would get their blood pressure all in a tizzy

Hey Ken. Come on up and take a look. It's right off exit 8 off Rte 3.

Don't know if he's looking to sell or not to be honest with you.

If anyones interested next time I see him I'll ask, and how much.

Aint going to be cheap though.

That's a MAN'S vehicle!

I especially like the way there's three doors on each side!

Yea, what Mike said....

What did they use that thing for. Pretty cool to have some off road fun in, along with a p-car in the stable of course....

A humvee can corner though. That unimog would roll easily.
How about a unimog stretch limo? I've seen humvee stretch limos around here.
