Forget the H2, Here Comes The SMARTRUCK III
Beep Beep Dept: Gizmo.com has a great piece on the ultimate truck, the SmarTruck III. Here are some highlights:

"For the Air Force, it can be a command-and-control center designed to monitor airfields and their vast surrounding areas. For the Border Patrol and U.S. Marshals, SMARTRUCK III will detect the movement of personnel or vehicles in remote areas. For Homeland Security, it is configured to monitor both bio threats and personnel movements.

"For a war zone, it brings state-of-the-art communications and detection systems while offering up-armored protection to withstand terrorist and insurgent roadside attacks. The SmarTruck III was built for the NAC, the Army's official link to developing collaborative technologies with commercial and academic partners, by Integrated Concepts & Research Corporation (ICRC) of Madison Heights, MI, and Heart International of Grand Blanc, MI."
