"Actually you can make a Sherman Tank street legal so the answer is yes"

Really? I thought the metal treads would tear the roads up too much. If this is true, that will be the next big thing, now that Hummers are becomming commonplace. :)

You use rubber padding on the tracks and the Sherman tank is below the weight limits for a lot of roads. Abrams tanks on the other hand are way too heavy.

Actually, there is a company in West Texas making high priced street machines out of the new FMTV troop trucks the Army is using in Iraq. They are called the BAD BOY HEAVY MUSCLE TRUCK and run several hundred thousand bucks each, depending on options.
