One thing I like about Hitler

He had fabulous taste in cars. The Mercedes G4 is to die for:

You sooo crazy! OTOH, many people forget that he was a 5th degree master of Austrian slap dancing. His performances were not to be missed and if you were lucky, you'd get to see the SS grab his partner and shoot him on the spot - it was a great shtick!

Personally I rather have a fast and beautiful Duesy or a V-16 Cadillac of that era rather than that tank of a Mercedes. At a curb weight of over an amazing 4 tons, it was a tank. :-)

Well, yeah! The G4 was optimized for cross-country travel on 1930s
roads. Ergo the six wheels. Probably the smoothest land cruiser ever.
But of course if you just go for flash and good looks, then the Duesy
is your girl:

The choice turns on whether you value curb appeal, or a smooth ride
into the Sudetenland.

Well OK then, I'll take a Duesy AND a Kübelwagen for when my shiny boots
might touch some mud. The idea of something like a Mercedes luxury
half-track is just plain nutty. Funny, they're pretty practical folks
otherwise.
