- Toonces drives a Ranger . . . . just not very well.
This kind of blows my mind.
Looks like a 2.8, right?
But in this?
From the article where I found it:
" . . . . and then there's this 1988 Hagglund BV206 listed for sale on Hemmings.com, an armored all-terrain vehicle developed for the Swedish army. While tracked, it steers not like a tank but instead via its articulating two-piece body, with power sent to both its front and rear units. Because it was designed with low ground pressure, it's adept at traveling in everything from snow to bogs to sand, and it was even developed to be fully amphibious. As with many military vehicles, the BV206 was built in several versions to suit a variety of purposes. This one in particular is powered by a Ford 2.8L V-6 and appears to be the armored personnel carrier variant, with seating for more than a dozen people. "
I guess that you could go just about anywhere with a lot of your friends, just not very fast. I'd be surprised if top speed even reaches double digits.
