When military officials, diplomats and other VIPs in Iraq go out for ice cream, they don't just jump into the nearest hatchback and head on out to Route Irish (i.e., the "Road of Death.") They pile into Labock Technologies's Rhino Runner — a heavily armored bus that comes in two colors, gray and off-white — and form a convoy. Each bus weighs around 13 tons, largely of steel and bullet-resistant glass, and is equipped with 12 gun ports. [Thanks to Noah for the tip.]

Let's hope this little AC unit is military grade.
