What kind of garbage truck is that? I was expecting an actual garbage truck.
In reply to EvanB:
Yeah, I think it is actually an expeditionary vehicle more than a garbage truck.
Unicat

That's one of those Dakar trucks. That one is the Unicat
I don't know what Draco started life as, coulda been a recycler.
I have had smaller apartments
If it hasn't hauled any garbage, ever, it's NOT a garbage truck.
In reply to 914Driver:
IIRC, it was an airport fire truck. I remember either a TV show about it years ago.

I wonder if you would ever be able to get the smell out of an actual garbage truck (as I frantically search Craigslist for garbage trucks...).

There are a ton of these over on the other board I frequent. (expeditionportal.com)
where did somebody get the idea that it was a garbage truck?
The one in that video is for sale at the Unicat site.
Asking price is a cool $1.1 million US.
Ok if I ever get rich I am buying a Unicat.
