2010 was the last year for the 6.0 diesel from Navistar - you are correct - that one was 660 stock. 2011 Ford launched their own designed and built powerstroke- the 6.7, and at the same time increased the output a substantial amount - although the current Cummins is putting out 800 lbft as well now and the Duramax isn't far behind.
No. When the 6.7 in the launched in the F-series it made 735 lb-ft and shortly after launch Ford reprogrammed them for 800 lb-ft - and offered the re-program to all previous owners for free. This was to overshadow the Duramax, which launched with the same specs as the 6.7, but Ford knew GM had already milked for all it was worth (from a power pov) so offered the power upgrade to gain the "mostly marketing" advantage. Current specs on the 6.7 in the F-series are 400hp and 800 lb-ft torque.
Haha I like how Canada makes a armored vehicle more luxurious then anything America has ever done. Must be our closer connection to the European world then the US.
@diehardmercfan - I wonder how fast it could go with the Bentley supersports 612bhp 6L W12 engine, also removing all the luxuries and gadgets. But I'm sure they could've pinched Cadillacs or Chrysler's fuel management systems to bump down the MPG.
So you're telling me that I pay you 500 grand and you give me this monstrosity that can only stop up to a 7.62 x 39 round? for that price, you can go to Texas Armoring Corp. with a Suburban, Escalade, etc, get a comparably luxurious interior, have enough armor to stop multiple shots from a 30.06 with AP rounds, AND have the benefit of blending into your surroundings with a normal, production vehicle! I mean, if you really need this kind of protection, wouldn't you rather blend in than stick out like a sore thumb??
"ever dreamed of being a night in shining armour? Dream no more" wouldn't it just be cheaper to buy a suit of amour? i mean hell, it's on a show called 'worlds most expensive rides' for crying out loud
@rjones9864 I can't believe I have done it again. I have once again forgot that RU-vid is a spelling bee. Stupid me for thinking it was a place to watch videos. Thanks for reminding me pall, I will try my best to remember that people come here to spell properly.
i said it would be useless in zombie apocalypse because it usess too much fuel, fuel would be very scarce during zombie apocalypse and i've never heard of a "Tahoe" or "Escalade" are they SUVs?
@VanillaCokeIndianSty I knew that... No really, I did know the Veyron was double v8, I just wasnt thinking. Lol, and I did fail to pay full attention to what the engine size of this car was... But I didnt know v10's could only be 6.8 liters. Lol o.O
The Conquest Knight XV design for honest business people that are such as Bill Gates, Warren Buffett and others that represent a positive image. But I am sure neither one of these guys would purchase such as vehicle. It is an awesome vehicle. The price of 489k is rather high.
So it looks like custom made excursion with armor i would like to see them blow it up with same amount of explosive top gear did to Marauder, anybody also want to see that?
There is no 6.8 liter v10 desiel. the options are: V10 gasser or V8 6.7 litre turbodiesel two different options -- not one mishmashed option .. lol ;-)
It has an 80 gallon gas tank, which is well over 3x the size of a normal SUV. The gas mileage is about the same as an Escalade or Tahoe. So who cares how much fuel it burns, if you're paying $500,000 for a vehicle like this, fuel costs are peanuts. Good luck in your Prius.
@fatoni698 like i said civilians are only allowed to have certain types of bullet proofing. if its on par with what the militaries got then whats stopping a bunch of well funded terrorists using these for attacks?
@BlackWaterAgent This thing is clearly not for people who drive themselves around (it costs $400,000!). Anyone who was paranoid enough to need this thing wouldn't get out himself to pump his own gas.
This car sits 8 people and comes in diesel engine, but why not go with the marauder or the matador from paramount. This is luxury armored the has 400+ horsepower 600 pound feet of torque, while the marauder has 290 horsepower with 1100 pound feet of torque you drag anything!!! and it can deflect an rpg check of the marauder youtube video from top gear. Marauder is the clear winner!!!
One round from a 50 Cal Barrett will eat through that peice of shit like a soda can. An AK47 only shoots a 7.62 round wich is nothing nowadays. Maybe this would have been good 10 years ago.lol
