I never knew that they made this type of vehicle but I guess they all do just don't show them to the public.

Well, if you want to get technical, they were doing this over 70 years ago. Benz made tanks and other military vechicles and aircraft during WWII. Not that they were given much choice in the matter, but I am guessing that the panzer was their top produced vechicle in the early 40's.

Everyone was involved in building that stuff.

Cadillac built tanks, not that they do now though.

Yeah, in my opinion they stopped building tanks in the 70's

I want one of those. I would drive around my village pretending to be a 'Goon' from The Rockford Files.
