What is that thing? Why is that thing? It looks like the vehicles from Aliens. On the windshield, there's a decal that reads "Apocalypse 6x6."

Mine is in fact a 700hp smoke monster. On stock 195 tires.
Hey, no judgement there. I just would prefer my daily to be reliable and not roll coal.
Currently have a 3.0 tdi Audi that someone seems to have remapped while drunk, so it uh... rolls coal, but not the way you'd expect. It produces too much soot when driving quietly, and then after a long drive at steady speeds, when you let the engine live a little, it generates a cloud.
Being an Audi it's also not reliable like my Mercs have been, but it has ISOFIX which was my only requirement at the time. Also is a wagon.
It's been remarkably reliable actually, but yeah if I had built it myself I'd have gone for a reliable 250hp setup.
I got the car for a bargain from the guy that built it, because he had let it sit and rot, so the floor had to be replaced to pass safety, and he didn't have the time to take care of it because of getting kids and working offshore.
