How do you protect yourself in this new world of war and terror? Take an SUV with a rotating turret machine gun with you everywhere you go.

That should probably show the gangs over in Compton what extreme drive-by is really about.

Five years ago when I was in D.C., there were a couple of black GM SUVs (can't remember if they were Tahoe or Yukon) parked over some distance from the White House. I should've checked if one of them was equiped with this!

Are you sure this is a SS vehicle? I don't think it is. They don't go around showing off their vehicles. It's not something that they do. Discretion is the best security.

Several years ago in Car and Driver magazine, there was a similarly-equipped Chevy Suburban based vehicle profiled. It was called SVI Raptor and had the same rotating machine gun turret. It was said to be popular in the Middle East.

I had the priviledge of being out in the desert when this vehicle was tested and for the Small Arms Review 1998 . It was the coolest thing I have ever seen in a civilian vehicle. When the gunner popped up through the roof with the M-134 mini-gun and started wasting the target vehicles with 7.62 rounds, it was exhilarating, not to mention made my panties wet and all that firepower. Awesome display of killing power.

Well what we see as cutting edge is usually 20 years behind what they are reasearching currently. So whatever SUV they have cookin up now chances are it will blow this thing out of the water... But I'd still take one.
