The M1 / IPM1 version weighs 60 tons -- 120,000 pounds

That means 60 lb/hp ratio -- not so good compared to a 370Z.

Yeah but the M1 has two guns whereas the Z has none. Did I also mention that the tank is a tank?

But who cares about hp/weight ratio when I can just run over any street vehicle? Even if they try to run, I have a 105 mm L/52 M68 rifled gun (55 rounds) or 120 mm L/44 M256A1 smoothbore gun (40 or 42 rounds) depending on the tank model. Bye bye either way

This is why I've always wanted a monster truck as a daily driver.

Although ... if I actually had one, I would probably be in a lot of trouble very quickly. Maybe it's better that I don't lol
