Ford Super Duty Transformed Into Armored Narco-Tank

We know Ford trucks are tough, but Mexican drug lords have taken this 2011 F-Series Super Duty to an all-new level. Police in the west Mexico state of Jalisco found this so-called "narco-tank" abandoned in a rural area.

As you can see, it's a one-of-a-kind armored upfit. The front bumper has a folding battering ram — which we call the "man-ram" — and sloping metal plates have been welded to almost every surface. The cargo box is fully enclosed with gun ports and a protected turret that can rotate to spot rival drug cartels or Mexican government troops.
