Deploying the Kids to Soccer Practice

Just as the military Humvee spawned General Motors' Hummer, it will be interesting to see what sort of mass market, consumer motor vehicle products emerge from the Army's new "Smar Truck III" homeland security concept vehicle. This behemoth "showcases the latest in armor protection, and detection and deterrent capabilities. Smar Truck lll is equipped with a weapons station module featuring a remote controlled .50-caliber machine gun which rises from the back of the vehicle and has sniper-detection directional sound capabilities." I look forward to seeing one of these rolling down Flatbush Avenue soon.
