Old military mobile missile launcher?

Pretty cool and nicely done interior, but I can't imagine the logistics involved with that thing.

In 27,000 miles it has used around 8,000 gallons of fuel. 600 fill ups. But, it has probably only need 2 oil changes at 7 (?) gallons each.

Like the 22 gal gas tank for the toys. Driving area looks rather uncomfortable

That thing really needs a custom buildout to have it make sense. Something big and luxurious to really capitalize on that GVW and off-set the driving comfort.
