The Tumbler?

Or the Warthog?

My money is on the bat. But IIRC the warthogs are pretty damn tough so it could be a good battle.

I'm going to throw a wrench into my own thread here and add a third candidate.

The Mako

It was only ever destroyed twice in the game. Once when it got zapped half way across the galaxy and landed upside down, and when the ship carrying it was blown up. And then it still landed right side up on the planet below.

The Tumbler would win. But only in a fair fight. If it was prison rules, than the Warthog.

Tumbler is from The Dark Knight
Warthog is from the HALO games
Mako is from the Mass Effect games

Somebody actually built a real version of a Warthog? Or is that just really good computer graphics?

Awesome. I'm obviously not much of a video game guy, but the rockcrawler in me wants the stats on that build and being a gun nut I need to know what's sitting on top of it.
Got any info on the thing?

the gun is a prop. not real.

I doubt that thing would really take being offroad either. sure, it drives, but it's just for show.

Excellent movie.

It's one of my favorites. My wife and I saw it on our first date.

I couldn't see much of the suspension but that front axle looked like a Rockwell. Also when it turned around the car in the lot it almost looked like it had rear-steer, which is entirely possible given the Deuce in the front but I don't really expect that out of this thing. Looks to be set up for mud rather than rocks, but I could be wrong.
Or it could be built entirely for show.
Either way I'd love to see a build thread or something on it. No idea where one would put that though.

I literally laughed out loud when I saw the post. It's an obscure movie that people don't seem to know a lot of quotes from, especially the more mature amongst us. [Beer]

Forget who would win, where do I get the Warthog? I want one! I'd go through the necessary headache and paperwork and get a Mk19 to mount on that bad boy. That would be super cool, let those morons at Moab deal with my 8.0L Twin Turbo Diesel powered HALO badassness.

Its early for me and my sarcasm meter hasn't been turned on yet.
Was that a serious post? Those seem to be the build specs for the one in the Halo game, not the real one.

Ridge

Yes, that is based on the fictional game version

There is a real one- with a different engine and all, and Forza 4 has this new Autovista where you can view (but not drive :( ) vehicles like the Warthog. I just wish it was drive-able in the game.

The Warthog's mobility is far superior. The machine gun can be swapped out for more serious fire power too.

I wanted to post a photo of one of those huge armored houses on wheels from the movie Soldier. couldn't find any pictures online.

This one gets my vote.
Best part is its a real vehicle one could buy (there's apparently 11 of them).

This is probably the closest thing you can get to a warthog out the gate with no modifications. Not really any standing room in the back for a gunner, but I'm sure something could be added to suffice.

Jeep Hurricane Working Concept:

2 V8 engines (front and rear). Cylinders are selectable all the way down to 4 and all the way up to 16 depending on what you are doing and pretty much a zero degree turning radius.

And a green one for the Halo fans.
