| Unless Realtree is driving it, the occupants will be dead/shot in less than a minute... What purpose would that serve? "Awe man! Look at that badass mule they br'......" [gun firing] "Oh theyre dead..." | |

| I had an idea when I saw the thing yesterday. I didn't see the back, but is it possible to maybe hook up some kind of trailer? I know some lawn mowers have a pin system that holds the thing in place. That way, you can built up the front as a people mover/tank and have the back to move cargo and items from place to place. You could probably also use it in some kind of convoy scenario where you have to stop the convoy and raid it for weapons. | |

| I still think the beast wont be done for a long time. We didnt receive some of the money we were supposed to get, (thanks to those who did donate though) and the materials have been expensive. Eric alone has probably dumped another 200 into it since we started, if not more.
Eric gave $100 initially, plus another 200+ Holden gave 60 Bob gave 50 and some smaller donations...
Weve got plenty of labor, plenty of people who didnt pay anything willing to donate what they think we should do with it, but ultimately we are short on materials...
I personally wish I never bought the damn thing...
But its starting to look cool... | |

| I bought mine payed for the frame materials which is 2x4's and 2x2's but my team bought the masonite and someone recently donated a shit ton of aircraft aluminum. enough to re-sheath it in that. We it's expensive to buy expenisve to build and expensive to transport for very far but man they really add to the games. I think you will be happy once you get it out on the field tedder. No worries about pulling me out I don't think it dealt with mud pretty good but haven't had to deal with sugar sand yet. | |

| I was reffering to me Shar. I drug it up from Jville Florida to Athens GA on a trailer with a V8 5.0 and it cost a shitton in gas(that's a lot for those of you counting:) If you are not taking it far then it is not a big deal on moving it. | |

| We need money for the skin materials, and more angle iron for the back setup(s) We also need 4 ga wire and connectors to rewire the batteries. If you have a miracle, we need that too. | |

| What are the skin materials? If it is masonite, I can get it at cost. My dad owns a cabinet shop and should be able to get the large sheets at a lower price. As for the wire, I'll pitch in the money for it. Just PM me with how much it will cost or tell me where to buy it. I kind of just want to work on this thing and if that means spending money on the wire, then I'm alright with that. Just put me somewhere up in line when the thing is done. | |

| Since we arent making it perfectly square, we decided on ABS plastic so we can heat bend it. If we made it squared off it would look half-assed... Hence why its taking so long to build it. | |

| Would fiberglass be cheaper? I have experience with doing auto body and don't mind sanding and working something. | |
