Armored Truck - Cash Truck
OK, I got a wild hair this morning...
Took the wife out shopping, and at every store we stopped at, there was an Armored cash truck or "Brink's" truck.
I' got the crazy idea that this would be a perfect vehicle for me. On a daily basis I only drive 4 miles combined back and forth to work, and if we're going out, we take her Hummer.
I want something big and obnoxious, and this would fit the bill.
So, my question is, what can I expect one of these things would be able to tow?? Other than the 2 miles back and forth to work, I'd only use it for towing.
Any leads on where I can pick up a use one??
Am I just nuts??

Re: Armored Truck - Cash Truck
I like the idea. And a fridge, sink, microwave, porta-potti and register it as motorhome. Cheap insurance and you won't have to stop at scales. A mini toterhome.
Don't they come with bulletproof or run-flat tires also?
They may only be geared for a top speed of 55-60 mph though. Grandpa would be blowin' by ya.

Even if it's only geared for 60 mph, that's fine with me. My 2 mile drive to work is in a 45mph speed limit.
I also thought about being able to park up front
Just after something a little more unique. And come'on, the damn thing's "BULLETPROOF"
