The Stryker
Posted by Phil Ewing on April 19th, 2008 filed in Uncategorized

This is the Stryker Infantry Carrier Vehicle, or ICV, a super-cool armored personnel carrier. Top speed: 75 m.p.h. Rumored top speed: 90-plus m.p.h. I rode in one during Best Ranger. It’s a surprisingly smooth ride. My rental car, a 2007 white Ford Mustang, is also a smooth ride. (I ordered the cheapest compact car and this is what the rental car company gave me, I swear.)
