They should outlaw those assault vehicle !
No civilian needs a motorized battering ram that big in a civilized world.
I bet it holds more than an acceptable amount of highly explosive fuel to improve its
impact potential,
while at the same time funding terrorists somewhere somehow.
If road defense or protection from random road rage is the goal,
than dump that modern windows based battering ram and get a nice clasic jeep and a [semi,
automatic]
weapon before it is too late.
Bartlett makes a nice 50 cal that will stop anything on the road with a nice [head, block]
shot if you insist
on a modern solution to the problem :-)
In keeping with the classic tone of this group,
my I suggest a nice Willys more like the one pictured here.

model has a 3/8" thick shaped steel bumper on the front and back, none
of that "cover it over with a piece of flimsy plastic cosmetic bumper
crap that cracks and caves in if you look at a car bumper the wrong
way" it also has a 5/8" thick skid plate underneath - very important
so as not to damage the undercarriage when going over another vehicle ;-)
