While watching all the coverage from the Middle East, Senior and I noticed that the vehicle of choice for terrorist organizations are Toyota's. Even in the 1980's hit movie "Back To the Future" the Iranians that were trying to kill the professor in the beginning of the film drove a Toyota Van...
This started Senior and I thinking.....
The average Toyota Tacoma runs around $26,000, throw in another $75,000 to "Up Armor" it, and it rises to $101,000. The average military hummer sells at $70,000..adding in the armor it then rises to around 160,000-220,000.
That is a huge price difference.. Think of the savings to the American People...
My point here is : If Toyota's are good enough for Terrorists...then why not the US ? It makes good economic sense to me....
LOL. I hope you're kidding... Those 'tacticals' have NO armor!
ReplyDeleteThat is why we Armor them up...save muy dinero... Lol
DeleteIf you put armor on them, they'd never be able to move... :-D
DeleteWell heres the thing BO doesn't care about the troops so he could get away with not armoring them. Wait until one of his limited air strikes gets shot down and surrounded by Toyota's .
DeleteLook up Top Gear killing the Toyota on Youtube to see a funny version of this very point.
ReplyDeleteJust told Senior... We will
DeleteSounds like a good plan to me. Then I could get a surplus one cheap!
ReplyDeleteI am with you on that...would be way cheaper then a surplus humvee
