Let's say you've got a team of people and equipment and you need to get them somewhere inhospitable to work. You can't fly, it's too far to walk, and no regular 4x4 is inclined to go there. You might just want a Fat Truck. Fat Truck. Honestly, what a great name. The Fat Truck, made by Zeal Motor in Canada, is a go-anywhere all terrain vehicle for the most difficult of terrains, thanks to its massive balloon tyres that can be inflated and deflated on the move. It can do 25mph on land or, get this, 3mph on water, as those big tyres paddle it around. It can also basically turn in its own length, because the wheels on each side can turn in opposite directions to give it amazing manoeuvrability. Its power comes from a modest-sounding 67bhp 2. 2-litre Caterpillar diesel engine, which drives a hydrostatic transmission, so it's dead easy to drive. How easy? And how unstoppable?

Folks it-s like saying a Rincon is copying a KingQuad. The Taiga and the Canadian Shield place similar unique demands on a vehicle. A buoyant skid-steer that can climb ice edges is pretty awesome as the thick bush precludes penetration and suggests a rivers as roads solution

Cool. I want one. next Christmas! Lets be honest though, for a lot less money, and almost just as cool, a Suzuki Jimny fitted with mud terrains, a locking diff, and a snorkle would get you to the majority of places you'll ever need to go. I propose a head to head!

Hmmm, the -unstoppable 4x4- and they give you a lightly rutted field and a 3 inch deep stream to show it's amazing capabilities, they've CERTAINLY got 100% faith in their product ---

I think the Sherp is better, with the more mechanical approach.
The electronic systems on this is are a point of failure.
The Sherp would outlast this I think.

Agreed, it is a Sherp. The old one anyway. Sherp likely licensed or sold the design to these guys while they concentrate on building the new one.

They literally mentioned the sheep in the video. You fan boys defend this thing like it-s your child. It-s called the free market
