Doesn't look terribly effective... [Bang]

.....well interesting to say the least is right. I never understood comic con and the weird things people do for the shows. I love my sci fi but a little silly unless your 10.

Why do people always name things "proof" I would say "Zombie Resistant" definitely not proof.

If it has the same plastic thin arse material for the doors and such not very tough. Zombies bashing in to the side will render the doors inoperable and then you are stuck behind the BBQ grill window guards.

How many here attend the COmic con? [Coffee]

Not exactly Zombie proof but I wish someone would make a Real Warthog for use.

Amen! You'll find this cool... if you ever played Forza 4, this is in the Autovista section featuring Jeremy Clarkson of BBC's Top Gear:

Spikes? The last thing I want to do is go pull zombie body parts off my plow.

That's what I was thinking, but if you just "stuck" some zombies, they would add lots of weight and resistance, and that little hyundai would be bogged down so fast...

And what the hell are the wheel spikes good for? honestly?

Eeew, imagine the blowing zombie chunks being blown to whichever direction you choose. Definitely a good zombie horde clearing device.

My favorite fictional zombie removal vehicle is The Juicer. It's a garbage truck with a scoop attachment that dumps only dead once zombies into the body of the vehicle where they're compacted by the garbage truck mechanism. Dump the truck out and repeat as necessary.

Looks like a slap together job to me. Zombies would tear into that car within seconds.

What a pathetic excuse for an assault vehicle...you see those hunks of scrap littered all over the battlefield.

How many Makos have you seen disabled?

Apples to oranges, MAKO assault vehicle and the Warthog are from two different universe's. Besides I blame the drivers of the warthog, it is a fast attack vehicle and they drive it like they stole it, why they are always wrecked.

MAKO is a designed to be on other planets. I hope there is no Human Zombies in space................

Ohh, I drive a Warthog like I stole it and keep it in one piece. I was a complete Halo 3 nerd for a while.

I used to think those things were terrifying...then I met the Asari version.

a well wrecked Warthog will launch you a great distance, if I could get my hands on a HiLux i think thats what I would use

Dude. Hyundai is awsome.
I drive a Hyundai.

My mom went from M3 to Santa Fe on 2002. She said it was a good move.

Yeah, I'm not knocking Hyundai, just saying that the Elantra is pretty tiny and lightweight... My wife has a Tucson and loves it. The ride is a bit stiff for me (I drive a 12 year old truck) but it gets good mileage and is a good daily commuter. It's not my cup of tea, but she loves it.

That being said, when the Zombies come, we'll take my truck and leave the Tucson in the garage with the keys in it. Maybe someone else would get a kick out of it before becoming some zombie's lunch. [Awesom]

Technicality those are not "human zombies." [Tooth]


Zombie resistant vehicle needs to be taller drive over all the carcasses you hit, thick body and not a lot of windows. hyundai doesn't meet any of the requirements. What quick access vehicle locally can you hijack? :)

Don't remember the first Halo do you? That thing was indestructible!
