One of our vehicles was used in one of the Robocop movies.

You have to be in government or military to purchase one because of their potential. After all they are "bullet" proof. They had to do a test on one where they drove it over 500 miles on the run-flat tires, even though they have central-tire inflation. The driver can adjust the air pressure when needed for better traction in sand or mud. Yeah, at 10 tons they also float!
