It can lift 440 lbs.!

Can you imagine the things farmers and ranchers are going to be doing with this thang?  Not to mention Rednecks.

Put a mini-gun on it(or XM556 micro-gun), an ammo drum, and imaging AI to hunt down hogs... could be the Texas solution to the hog problem.

Hmmm... not much difference in profile of a human and a hog from an AI standpoint... easily altered...

Technology... gotta love it...

Yup I talked to a deer dealer about stuff like that the other day. He also said he installs more DVD and satalite System that you could ever imagine. Basically the driver is there in case is emergency now. The RPM speed and gps map tell tractor to do everything.

I want one that finds and shoots deer with more than 8 points.....  It would be doubly nice if it would field clean them too....  I'll just hold my own beer and watch, thank ye!
