MAN 8x8 Build

[Third From Texas]

Cool build on the outside.

But that interior...

What's the German word for vomit?

Someone's taste is in their arse.

Interior looks like 1960's decor to me. Maybe not, but it definitely doesn't look like what I would have expected. AND at just $1.75 million, that simple life could be yours. Seems a bit high, but then again too - it is all what people will pay I guess.

Just in case anybody else wants to see what $1,075,000 looks like, here is a picture - and remember she is an 8x8:

It’s all in the eye of the beholder!

"BEHOLDER"??? "oh gees".... "I feel like an absolute fool" ..... all this time I thought it was; "eye of the BEER HOLDER"..

I guess the chef and French maid might make it worth 1.75 million in some countries

I could buy them a lot cheaper down here on the border, though.

Way back when, in a different life, I drove the MAN 8x8 in an older variant, V8 diesel with a ZF semi-automatic transmission. Man, that thing was an offroad beast. So easy to drive, full air lockers and power divider locks on all axles. Unstoppable. Palfinger knuckleboom behind the cab.
Mind you, that was a late 1979 truck. No a/c but air ride seat. Optimized for offroad but could be whipped to 110km/h on the highway.
I can only imagine what the later KAT trucks from the German Bundeswehr are like.
Would I want one? Yes, please!

Really? I thought it was pretty darn neat. The interior could indeed be erbrechen compared to @chucky 's truck for example. I like the dark glossy wood...
