That probably has something to do with the fact that the M1 Abrams was not intended as an overpriced status object designed purely to make spoilt and privileged suburbanites make themselves feel superior to anyone walking in the street.

An M1 probably has better range and usability, storage etc.

Does it have android auto though? I'm not paying the army a monthly subscription for my navigation.
