Arnold Schwarzenegger gets the keys to a $250,000 Mercedes Unimog | Motoramic - Yahoo! Autos Pretty cool I think. I hope he uses it for its intended purpose

Good new for those of you with 250,000 USD burning a hole in your back pocket if Arnold sets a precedence then it will be easier for you to import one too.

Don't leave that there - I'll take it to bits!

Far more classy than a Hummer. Infinitely less likely to get you cut off in traffic.

Gut fur you, Ahnald

What are the mileage statistics of the HMMV H1 vs this UNIMOG model? I'll bet the UNIMOG gets better mileage per weight.

Likely MUCH better, they can't afford to go around getting 5MPG in places where Unimogs are used. The H1 is rediculous.

They probably have a similar fuel burn, and who gives a crap?

I have heard the Unimog gets around 15mpg

The fifth thread about it --it dosent look like a normal U1300, i kinda doubt 15mpg for this thing.
