New Scope Ford F-650 XUV
Why: The New Scope Truck Ford F-650 Super Duty is very, very ridiculous. Between the zombie-smashing diamond plate front bumper, te six swingin' doors, and the giant diesel tanks running down the side, it's got apocalypse machine written all over it. Though it isn't bulletproof like the t...
Chevrolet Sting-Ray Concept
Why: The Chevrolet Stingray concept debuted here at the Chicago Auto Show, and aside from being a seriously badass Corvette concept car its Transformers alter-ego Sideswipe would be great in something like a robot apocalypse. Of course such a threat could come internally or extra-terr...
Suzuki Makai Concept
Why: If Al Gore is right (and he always is) pretty soon we'll be up to our necks in globally warmed ocean water when the Greenland ice sheet and the South Pole melt into the sea.

The Jeep Kid Zone
Why: This one is largely irrelevant and extremely esoteric, but these little PowerWheels Jeeps stationed in the "Jeep Kid Zone" are the perfect way to save you from the Chryslerpocalypse. You probably haven't read it anywhere, but a large majority of auto writers aren't exactly confide...
XBox Skateboarding Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
Why: Putting aside Ray's tussle with Chrysler for a moment, this Jeep Wrangle has been put together as a display which sickeningly panders to the x-treme kids showing up at the Chicago Auto Show. It wears a crown of fake skateboards and two Xbox stations mounted on the rear doors, which make...
1930's Era Supercharged Ford Madness
Why: The hipster threat is a real and growing problem. It is not inconceivable the world's disaffected annoying teenagers in search of an identity will lead to a global apocalypse. This displayed Ford didn't come with any information, but lets just say the engine in this car generated pudd...
