      The Unimog is cool in a lot of ways. Big trucks are just plain cool and Mercedes making one for 60 years is cool in of itself. Here is a modern take on the 1951 Unimog. It is an open cabin design, just like the original. This concept is based on a modern chassis with modified suspension and some giant wheels. The color was inspired by the green poison dart frog. It's different, it's attention grabbing, and we like it.

        It's weird and cool at the same time. If the chrome on the wheels spun we would see huge demand for them here I bet.

        Interesting design though..... I wonder if there's any word on the price range for it, as that will determine it's popularity in the future.

        Nah, no price range, the Unimog will continue to be as it is.
