Honey, I just bought a tank

A lot of folks have been feeling the fuel hikes and credit crunches. But not this eccentric man in Germany.
Joachim Schoeneich wanted a nice family car, something spacious for the shopping trips and other errands. Plenty of ideas come to mind, right?
Bet the last thing on your mind is a hefty military vehicle.
That’s right; Mr. Schoeneich told his wife, “Honey, it’s time we got an auto” and came home with a “British-built Fox tank“.
Wonder how the Mrs. took the news?
I was gonna make a flip remark about speed cameras and tickets but just how hard will it be track him out for traffic offenses. Everyone in Germany who owns a tank put your hands up… I meant the none military… or those currently shooting a Rammstein video.
And get this - the fuel consumption is £24,000!
I take it he’s not on the “go green” updates list.
