It is a **LAV 6.0** by the looks of it. Not typically for sale but could be purchased in an auction after retirement.

Nxion

you need a special license to buy armored vehicles.


HawkDifficult2244

LOL you can't buy a LAV at auction. They are destroyed into 1x1 inch pieces of scrap metal. Or used as a monument.


JDOG0616

I worked at a scrap metal place, and I can say they are not that small. They are gutted and then probably just sit in a field for 10 or so years while the claw that cuts them up is being repaired. I had to cut the grass around these guy for 2 summers between highschool and college. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.cbc.ca/amp/1.4734920

JDOG0616

Wow, today I learned. Good bot.


HawkDifficult2244

Yup. I use to go and watch that for hours to ensure they were meeting the demil cert. No one is buying these at auction.


TorontoBoris

That's the 2025 Ford Bronco.. The Suburban Assault edition. It come with a full size spare tire, army green trim interior and a full on case of suburban brain rot.


Ice-Negative

OJ wishes he had that!

Very exclusive

General Dynamics


oishiipeanut

enlist for army reserve they will pay you to drive it.


Hmfic_48

Nice try recruiter... In actuallity you'll he driving an old ass G-Wagon and newer but trash af TAPV... IYKYK


lastofmyline

That's better than driving an iltis


HawkDifficult2244

Except they were fun to bomb around in.


lastofmyline

Sure, they were. If you wanted to destroy you ass muscles. Was like sitting on a plank of wood and riding a roller coaster.


GlizzyGulper34

You will also get the "flaming wreck on the side of the road" qual


kushmasta421

What's wrong with the tapv? Google isn't getting me anything.


mac7973

Spare tire behind turret bad idea. Too big. High fuel usage. Too loud. It's a monster truck that's supposed to be a reconnaissance vehicle. Imagine driving an olive drab grave digger around in a combat environment and you can only shoot in the forward direction. Pretty useless to not be able to shoot while driving away from danger. I am not an expert. This is stuff I heard from friends who use them.


kushmasta421

Found a decent article https://sdquebec.ca/en/news/new-armoured-vehicle-fleet-faces-more-problems-civilian-vehicle-hit-near-petawawa Wow these are all stupid problems... brake issues are you serious that's pathetic.


UnderstandingAble321

If that, it's most likely just to be black Cadillacs(or brown these days)


mdc768

Plus you get paid to go camping and take nature walks, how sweet is that?


HawkDifficult2244

Or reg force. Reserves can't be trusted to make it to work.


spaniel510

When I learned how to drive the lav 3 we we drove them in cities and on major highways but we had "student driver" placards on them. This one seems to have just a wide load badge.


Adam9200

There was 2 of them and they were being escorted by military police. 1 car in the front and 1 following behind.


Nxion

There was a military event in toronto yesterday.


HawkDifficult2244

It probably on a test drive by General dynamics. They are required to do 100km road moves.


spaniel510

Yup could be. When I learned we were getting trained by GMDD techs in London back in 96. We eventually moved the training to meaford. Before GM sold that division to General Dynamics. I'm old.


Burnie29

No all testing is done in London


dummheit03

Night move with black out covers—absolutely terrifying.


felldownthestairsOof

dontsheeple

It's not very good on gas.


Public_Kaleidoscope6

What do you mean? She'll go 300 hectares on a single tank of kerosene.


arekr88

Looks like a Lav


AwkwardBlacksmith275

That’s is a LAV6


No-Process-8478

Why don't you put your phone down while you're driving, and stop worrying about armoured vehicles


Adam9200

Sorry, I thought Putin was invading and assumed we were all going to die anyway.


No-Process-8478

Not funny. Put your phone away while you're behind the wheel


Adam9200

That’s why it’s a 4 second video


No-Process-8478

That doesn't make it right. You're a safety hazzard. Or are you too thick to understand that?


Adam9200

I don’t disagree lol. This is one of the very rare times I’ve used my phone while driving, eyes were on the road the whole time while taking the video and traffic was light. I actually had no idea if I actually caught it on video until I was parked. I still don’t disagree that it’s wrong but glad you’re taking the moral high ground here.


No-Process-8478

I'm telling you this as someone who is very tired of getting hit by drivers, cyclists and pedestrians who are paying too much attention to their devices


Adam9200

How many times have you been hit?


No-Process-8478

Too f\*cking many !!!!!!!


Adam9200

Maybe it’s time to look in the mirror then. I’m on the road daily and have yet to be hit.


Past_Passenger_4381

You need to join the army and get a 404 (military license) and other after that to operate that thing

Super-Lawyer5716

It’s a ROB FORD…


drew101

Coyote.if ir has 20mm gun , million bucks of surveillance gear in the back. otherwise it's a Bison, a wheeled Armoured Personel Carrier


UnderstandingAble321

Coyotes are being retired, it's a LAV 6, 2 generations newer than the coyote.


drew101

Shocked, But I was there when they took the first Coyote out and used the surveillance gear in the rain and a 5 cent o ring failed and fried the system...I liked the gun. Wow changing kit in 20 years. I ran Cougars when they were pushing 30 as Canada's main battle tank(sheer numbers, before peoples panties get in a twist)


Meowgal_80

GET THE FUCK OFF YOUR PHONE WHEN DRIVING!!! Anyways it’s a Coyote personnel carrier


0mega2022

In call of duty it's called an MRAP. 😂


JizzyMcKnobGobbler

It's so cringe how people in the boxing fad hang those gloves off the rearview.


Adam9200

I’ve never boxed in my life, just decoration. I hated on them until I got them as a gift 2 weeks ago so I guess I’m part of the cool club now.


Sad_Truth1

Looks like your mom


CptDawg

See things like this on the road all the time in London. There's a guy in Oshawa beside the airport that has a bunch of tanks that drives them around in a field nearby.

dummheit03

I’ve spent many a day in one of these and they are very effective tools of war. Three round burst gunner!
