Mercedes-Benz G-Class
The Mercedes-Benz G-Class was originally developed for military use back in the 1970s as a heavy-duty four-wheel-drive conveyance, but it has been updated over the decades and given as many luxuries, conveniences and refinements as possible. Not that there's any denying the G's utilitarian roots: At nearly 3 tons, describing it as an over-engineered, leather-lined rolling bank vault would be an apt portrayal.
