Looks like one hellava good vehicle to transport your entire clan in. It may be concept art that never made it to FOT, they may even try and include it in FOT2.

Choochookillmabob is the only word that describes that fine piece of machinery.

That wouldnt do much good except out in the wasteland with wide open areas.

All I have to say is, that's a bad-ass phat ride.

It was cut from FOT due to being too long. It looked pretty goofy when it rotated, and there wasn't much point to it, considering the APC could hold a full squad anyway. There was also a taxi that never made the final cut.

There was talk of it being a gate for Mission 15 (Junction City?)

It reminds me of the "Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome" power plant/vehicle.

That would have rocked.

It's the only thing that's missing to reconstruct the oil refinery from The Road Warrior. Hell you've even got the oil pump tiles ("Ka-chung-ka-chung-ka-chung!"), exploding barrels, the whole nine yards. Oh, and a metal boomerang for someone to get their arm crippled with.

(Too bad there's no children in FoT...)

Imagine that ride across the wastelands. then, a your squad comes across a whole shitload of radscorps or bots. Imagine that drive by shooting.

Man, that would be so, so messy. It should go fast, and it should be really powerfull, so it can beat the Hummer, because the hummer holds all of yout people, and its nice and small. And this bus is like a 30 person seater. Maybe, if you can get hostages in FO:T2, then it'll be sweeet. But, i dunno what you are gonna do with a bus in FO:T.

P.S. The_One-1, nice avatir.

I'd love to see that taxi that didn't make it into the game...

Wouldn't that be a nice mission: some raiders get that bus, load it up with a shitload of barrels filled with kerosene and are on their way to propell it through a BOS outpost like a stake through a jellyfish. The guard that bus with their own buggies and the bus itself is quite heavily armoured. It's up to you and your squad to stop them before they crash the gates and wipe out that outpost.

Surly you mean Mad Max: The Road Warrior? The gate vehicle to the fuel refinery.
