This Isn't A Joke, You Can Drive A Tank!

May 06, 2024 in Uncategorized

Few things cross my email in a day that makes me stop and say, "What the heck?!" And I have to say, this email is insane! Now, I haven't had the opportunity to chat with the company yet, so I don't know all the details, but here is what I know:

What I Know

Drive a Tank, located in Kasota, Minnesota, has taken adventure travel to a whole new level by offering civilians the chance to commandeer real military tanks. The experience promises more than just a joyride; it's an adrenaline-pumping journey into the realm of military might.

Imagine steering a British Abbot, navigating the colossal 90-ton NATO Forces Chieftain, or operating an ultra-rare WWII Sherman Tank. Drive A Tank's fleet is nothing short of impressive, catering to a diverse range of tastes and providing enthusiasts with a tangible connection to history.

The adventure doesn't end with tank driving. Drive A Tank offers an array of unique experiences, including the opportunity to engage in historic military shooting within a controlled range. Participants can unleash the firepower of these mechanical beasts in an environment designed to evoke the intensity of a military operation.

But that's not all. For those craving a more unconventional thrill, Drive A Tank provides the chance to crush cars beneath the colossal treads of these armored giants. The car-crushing experience is not only a testament to the sheer power of these machines but also a unique way to channel one's inner action hero.

Questions I Still Have

Now, the details remain a bit mysterious. Can you shoot something? Do you actually drive, or is it a ride-along? How much does this cost? How long do you get to drive around? These questions are still unanswered, but once the information lands in my inbox, I'll be sure to fill you in on all the exhilarating details.

For now, let your imagination run wild, akin to a 12-year-old boy playing G.I. Joes in the backyard. Drive A Tank is at the forefront of a new era in adventure travel, where the pursuit of unique and immersive experiences knows no bounds. It's not just an adventure; it's a journey into the extraordinary, offering a chance to step into the shoes of military commanders and experience the raw power of these formidable machines. So, buckle up, gear up, and get ready for an adventure like no other!
