6x6 series???

That drove past me yesterday here on Nantucket. I assume its a new summer toy for someone. Anyone know about this thing?

It was a VA truck and was for sale for a LONG time.

I guess that it found a new home in Nantucket.

Haha I saw that for sale a long time ago...it may have even been on these forums. The ultra rare 74 "Defender"

You can read all the ridicule about it on the "Land Rovers that Suck" thread on D-90.com

Looks like i will have a new rover pal on island. Im going to chase it down next time i see it. I really want to see the drivetrain set up. i have a bunch of left over Tan 686 from from painting my 109, maybe i can convince him to change the color!

6x6 series??? Somewhat unusual, but not the first by a long shot.
The first I was aware of was the Sandtrekker: http://sandtrekker.com/ Plus is was actually used for a long trip.
The one in the video seems to have the rear axles too close together, IMO.
