Well, I think thats probably among the silliest things I've seen, but at least they picked a good base for their indestructomobile. Seriously though, foam filled tires??

Perhaps in NC you can shoot from a vehicle. Illegal in Oregon - and rightly so.

Assuming the owner is a bird hunter (as in "quail"), the idea is to have a moving perch that can see and follow the dogs. When birds are found, the hunter dismounts to flush and shoot the birds.
If it was a really good version, it would have a dog box mounted to the rear floor and the bench seat would be above the box.
A super specimen would have a padded and secure gun rack mounted in a good spot for quick-draw after dismounting and some nice gimballed cup-holders, a locker for shooting glasses, another for extra ammunition, a GPS receiver for tracking the dogs - with a display for the driver and a repeater on the rear of the cab for the riders -, a ladder for climbing up/down and a combo cooler/bar with bottle and glass racks (for after the hunt, of course <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />).
To get really spiffy, you'd want a trailer to carry the firewood, tent and camp supplies, but if you have all that, you might as well buy a large farm with a nice cabin and pay someone to tend the fire and do the cooking. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />
And after you've done that for a while, you get smart and go out to eat at a nice restaurant, spending $100/head, but saving much more. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Wow. That would be good for hog hunting in TX though.

And I was having visions of Hatari... I was having visions of Ishtar, myself. Oh, and I like how Frank thinks, too. Add another 6 pack cooler for me. John B.

I'll go to the restaurant with Frank, especially if he's buying.

In Alabama, we used to hunt road signs from something like that, but then they started putting them up with the bullet holes already in them, and all the sport went out of the hunt.
