Last year, the Freedum States of Murica built the Roadrunner, the pinnacle of their light assault vehicle technology. It's used by their special forces, the Alpha Force, in lightning raids and blitzkrieg attacks.
Image
Image
It's armed with .50 cal machine gun in the a passenger's seat and a Gatling gun with attached grenade launcher in the back. It's also got some space for operators to store their gear. For an assault buggy, it's almost perfect.
Image
What it lacks however, is the space to hold the fourth operator of the squad. They either have to walk or call an uber.
Image
This year, the Freedum States of Murica decided to re-release the Roadrunnner in HD.
Image
The HD stands for heavy duty. While similar to the original Roadrunner, it's built with a somewhat larger and heavier frame. The Gatling turret has also been upgraded to fire special OT tipped rounds.
Image
It also features increased cargo space and room for a 4th or 5th passenger in the bed.

Yes! Perfect! High-Def Heavy Duty Buggies are the best!

Thanks, I made the infantry first, and then figured they needed some vehicles to drive around in.

Nice use of green and nougat pieces. Blends in well with the Kashyyyk and Geonosis cloan torsos.

Thanks. I used basically every nougat piece I had, most of which came with the Geonosis battle pack. It wasn't many, but I wanted to use them up for something and figured there were just enough to make one vehicle. I've also done this with dark green, lime green and purple.
