    I thought it said "Melody Balloons" and was thinking, "Ooh, new internet porn! Wait, shouldn't that be on Fleshbot, or does she do gadget erotica?"

    Great for ethereal music, or mp3s of Limbaugh's show.

    Either Apple or Google. You'll know which when you either get laid all the time or find yourself trapped in a room with no doors with a lit fireplace and carpeting.

    Also, if you replace those water cannons with miniguns you've got a bitchin' Humvee replacement.

    Most importantly, it's got white walled tires. It needs some spinners though.

    Total badass-edry is this concept. I'm sure the firefighters of Los Angeles wouldn't mind one or two of these.

    It's a cool looking concept but I can't imagine that the specs and the appearance could actually match up. First, where is all that water going to fit - 580 gallons would take up about 80 cubic feet,which is about the same size as a six person hot tub . It would weigh about 4600 lbs. Add to that the weight of the vehicle and you'd have to have an engine at least as powerful as a 6.7l Cummins. Where does that fit in this design?

    @weatherman: It doesn't. That's why people who design concepts like these are artists, not engineers.

    @weatherman: aaah but you see, it was never started as a design for a fire fighting vehicle. This was clearly pitched as a concept for a NOD buggy, the cannons even look like machine guns.

    But then EA went and changed C&C and the artist realised there's no market for a cool NOD buggy anymore, now its a firefighting vehicle.

    The person who designed this definitely does not have a baby of their own. Or, it's scathing social commentary in the form of a 3-D rendering.

    Replace "fire" with "zombie" and you've got a real use for this thing.
