I know some will not like these vehicles, but the amount of thought and creativity that went into them cannot be denied. The workmanship and attention to detail is amazing.All are diesel powered and have lots of clever touchs that set them apart from the other rides on display at MATS.

I saw a u-tube video of the 4 door one doing donuts in a parking lot. Lots of smoke! From the engine AND the tires! LOL
