This thing is pretty cool. I think lemonboy is about to sport wood. Kind of like the crosslander but based on a chinese military design, is AMPHIBIOUS, has a diesel engine, and is available in a few different configurations (suv, truck, and convertible). oh yeah, and Ice-T is their new spokesman.



their website is pretty weak though.

That thing is certainly cool, but Ice-T as their spokesman? Apparently they have high hopes that there's still room in the Hummer H2/Chevy Tahoe 18" polished spinner rim market. They'll be pullin pimps out of the lakes and rivers everywhere.

So is that Crosslander basically a Defender knockoff?

it kind of looks like it. it's actually a romanian military vehicle converted for civilian use. at $25k i thought it had potential, but then they had to ditch the diesel engine for a ford 4.0l to pass epa restrictions.

Is this another attempt to get the ARO into the U.S. ?
