I feel it NEEDS the dukes of hazard horn from the general lee.
This one is pretty cool. Looks very rugged, performs very well off-road...
And it's light enough to lift it with onboard tractor beam or Maxlift. You can even place it in Polaris ship hangar with the latter one.
Can't help it but this ride symbolises everything I hate about SUVs in real live. Impossibly big and then there's only one guy insides hauling ass because he's too lazy walking a few meters.
And the worst thing is you can't carry only half of the A-Team!
What madness is that?!!
How is the ride by the way? Does it move like a 3 ton truck or more like a rubberball on crack?
Like every other ground-vehicle basically.

It performs much better than Spartan and has a nice independent suspension : )
But I agree, it's large enough to carry four persons; it should have two jump seats, in addition to the driver and gunner seats...
I guess it was inspired by L-ATV and similar light infantry armoured vehicles, but they can usually carry a four-person crew, except for support vehicles (CSV).
Or in the case of the A-Team GMC they carry 4 guys plus 1 or more additional characters essential for the corresponding episode. Mostly cute ladies. Not that I'm judging.
Seriously though, the GMC Vandura is 5.2 * 2 * 2.12 m and the Greycat MTC is 8.75*6*5 m .
Two M3 half-track Trucks side by side would take up less space and would not be half the height. And those things weight in a 9 tons a piece and carry 3+10 soldiers including the equipment.
I get it that the M3s never had to navigate Daymar.
But still, CIG does like to blow their vehicles out of proportion.
I look at my favorite rides like the Cutlass or the Avenger or such from the outside.
An I see that tiny figure under that big glass dome.
And I wanna ask the pilot: "Hey kid, who let you fly this thing all alone? Where's your parents, huh?"
Fact is that from the outside most pilots look like they sit in some kind of baby seat .
Because the cockpit size are way over the top.
I guess that's all artifacts from when they figured they had to enlarge the ships to include all the new tech.
With the old Cutlass model I wouldn't look like a toddler on a rampage. Admittedly though I'd probably only be able to carry around 12 SCU.
Damn... 'm rabling again, am I?
Sorry out that...
Okay, short version.
Them vehicles too big for what they do.
Over and out!

My problem with it is the gigantic signature. It’s going to be easy to pick off from the air. They should have given it an sig of about 1.5k and instead it’s 4.8. This is too easy to missile lock and almost any missile is going to kill this.
This must be why I want it so much! ... but I better not touch (Don't touch). I wanna hold you, but my senses tell me to stop.... your lips are venomous poison!
