Why get a toy? When there are real tanks out there for sale?

Who couldn't use their own T72? It would make the daily commute FUN! Of course with the price of gas these days, it would just be a pretty lawn ornament.

OH! I KNOW! Market it as a "Genuine Hurricane Evacuation Vehicle!" "No need to sit and wait in long lines, stranded on the highway with everyone else. Just point it North and GO! Nothing will stand in your way!"

Better yet, get several of the BMP-1's and run a Hurricane exacuation service.

What's even funnier is look at the 'what other people bought' on the Amazon page:

Today's grocery list:

Bananas, grapes, lamb sausages, fart bomb bags, stink bombs, and a tank

Priceless!
