That was actually one of Ford's prototype cars. It was used as a Marauder "Preview" car. It was a mule car.

That car indeed was one of the 1st marauder concepts,and it is a shame but we will only see it in pictures I heard it was dismantled in 2002.

The concept marauder that was on display had a strip around the lower body mouding.

Had to gawk for awhile. Check out the right rear tire, looks FAT doesn't it? Nahh..its the front one too. Damn.

What's with the tiny burnouts? bicycles?

The exhaust pipes (not the tips) sure are shiny! My MM#1's exhaust system was already pathetically rusted by the time I got the car home, which put it at a total of about 60 miles on the odometer! (and the car was showroom-kept from the moment it arrived at the dealer a month before I bought it).

(I'm not exaggerating: the day after the car came home, I was looking underneath it just for kicks and was telling myself "sheesh, that's a rusty undercarriage for a brand new car!")
