Meet the MRAP

If a tank and a Bugatti had a baby, it be an MRAP. Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected. 9.3L, 330 hp @ 2,100 rpm. 18 tons. 9 feet high. $1,000,000 dollars. Made by Oshkosh. Made to withstand missiles. The MRAP is the baddest whip in the Air Force. What could be done with one of these monsters for a day?

Me

If I had one day with this thing, I'd start nice and end mean. I would first strap in a car seat. Then take Amanda and Graciana on a date to Swensons. Afterward, I'd pick up my grandma. We'd floor it through a corn field because she needs excitement in her life. Finally, I'd drop everyone off at Chick-fil-a so they could have lunch. I'd go drive by myself to human trafficking hot spots and plow down the buildings where stuff like that happens. Ohio ranks fifth in the nation for most human trafficking. An MRAP can fix that.

Conclusion

I've seen some sweet vehicles. But this one's chief. You just read what I would do with an MRAP. What would you do? Turf a lawn? Knock down a stop sign? Drive to Canada through Lake Erie? Let's hear it.
