So I read the article about the Special Ops Jeep a couple months back and thought it was most likely another one of those cool things the military is supposed to get but never does. Then I drove past my Jeep dealer and saw this being displayed... Looks pretty bad ass for a military vehicle!

I am shocked only being 160k. Used refurbished HEMTT motors go for 100k. I want to know what motor is in that not bad looking at all

Price tag is easily justifiable when it's for the government.

JKU -$40,000; Government price - $80,000
Mods - $20,000; Government price - $40,000
Selling to the government - $40,000 upgrade fee

I posted up some pics of these out here in the desert in the "cool jeeps you've parked by" thread.

Here's a website that tells some more about them http://motusworld.com/2014/04/commando-tactical-vehicle/

And here's the guys that I think build them http://www.hendrickdynamics.com/portfolio/

I believe the engines are built by Lotus.

yeah that sounds about right actually. it looked cool and all but it was nothing outrageous that would warrant that much coin in the real world. Kinda cool that the JK may actually see combat though. The REAL call of duty edition Jeep!

I wouldn't say easily justifiable.... more like someone is getting a cut for the contract and we the tax payers are getting fucked... as usual... :doh: :naw:
