What is that thing, Joe?

It's a Critter Gitter!!! Based in League City of Texas, they have built Critter Gitters for game ranches in the southwest to a prince from the United Arab Emirates. Each vehicle is a custom build based on the customers needs, from the frame to the cab, and the electrical.
Just a few of the options are: seating for large parties, custom crocodile leather upholstery, custom sound system, pressurized water, toilets, beds, air conditioned dog boxes, and 50 caliber gun mounts. They look as good under the hood as they do from the outside. Great pride is taken in routing and securing wiring, fuel lines, and hoses.
A prince from the Middle East ordered a Critter Gitter with 24-karat gold sinks and rosewood inlays. Another customer needed a dance floor and stripper pole. My favorites are the air conditioned dog box, poker table, and wet bar. After talking to the guys at Critter Gitter I quickly learned, if you can imagine it, they can fabricate it.

Or there are the Florida Swamp Buggies seeing as you want to move there....  Based in Florida, they have an impressive line of swamp buggies, and they are built to sling mud. As you can imagine, elevated hunting in the bogs for hogs is much safer than stepping over alligators and snakes. The swamp buggies come with 54-inch tires to help keep you out of the swamp. The custom chassis, drive train, and rails have over 300 pounds of steel. To prevent you from getting stuck in the swamp, you can order up to a 1,000 horsepower engine. Special care is made to place safety rails and bars to keep you away from gators. Rust can be a problem in the wetlands, so Swamp Buggies of Florida use a special orange epoxy primer. Mike Cox and his team are producing high-quality buggies and are now used by law enforcement and state agencies. |

I'd visit too, and bring my own models to work on too.
I think I rode in a version of one of these at Disney in their Animal Kingdom park. That first pic looks like the one we rode in. I was watching a lioness that was eyeing us from 30 feet away. She had that look in her eye that made one feel like a buffet and she was trying to decide which of us 'entrees' she wanted.
Cool info man.

High enough... We were only about four feet off the ground the way we were sitting. The Vehicle looked a lot like that first one you posted. We were there for awhile too since a white rhino had decide to stand in the middle of the road. Disney has a policy that you don't honk at the animals or leave the road so we had to sit and wait until she moved off on her own. I guess she was waiting for her calf, as she eventually followed it off into the wilderness.
