The Australian SAS called these vehicle the Perinties 6x6 named after a desert insect. There are two company in Australia specialized in retrofit any 4x4 vehicle into all wheel 6x6, just Google it.

This is not a Perentie, and Perentie is not an insect, but a fairly large lizzard. But I know what you are talking about.

@296jayce So GMC went bankrupt because they made good vehicles? No, it's because they made cr*p vehicles that nobody wanted to buy.

[watchoutbush]

@xraycortina Almost! Almost! ...... you must have had the wrong tyres on her! ;-)

[xraycortina]

@watchoutbush My last one was a 1974 88" diesel, but it could still almost climb a tree.
