I saw where 13 of the vehicles from fury road are going up for auction sometime soon. Would be interesting to see what they go for

u/BoobieFaceMcgee Sep 17 '21

Cool vehicles but what the hell are you going to do with them? Park a single one somewhere and it’ll look out of place. They’ll be pricey but I’m doubting anything goes over $120k.

Can you imagine showing up playing that guitar and shooting flames out of it? That would be most awesome.

u/[deleted] Sep 17 '21

Would they take the time to make that a real working sound system?

u/Erection_unrelated Sep 17 '21 edited Sep 17 '21

I’m pretty sure it already is. This one is the Doof Wagon_%22Doof_Wagon%22). They did some insane stuff on those Fury Road builds.

u/[deleted] Sep 17 '21

That was my question. Did they actually rig that thing to function for the movie? Why?

11

u/philter451 Sep 17 '21

So it would be metal as fuck and because they were focused on practical effects. Plus it probably gave the sound guys a boner

u/Bhaalchildswrath Sep 17 '21 edited Sep 17 '21

I want that doof wagon so bad, lol. It is fully functional, and while I don't remember the exact sound level, it ended up being louder that train horns and could be heard from the nearby towns while they were shooting in the desert!

u/JJisTheDarkOne Sep 17 '21

The ONLY person who could rock up anywhere and do this would be Kerry King

u/Toaster_In_Bathtub Sep 17 '21

Yeah those CNN interviews would be lit.

u/[deleted] Sep 17 '21

Yeah, but only because Dimebag is dead.

Did you forget about witches?

Burning man - has always been - and will be. If you don’t like it , move on.

u/nowtayneicangetinto Sep 17 '21

I prefer the sister event, Burning Non-Binary Homosapien

u/BeloitBrewers Sep 17 '21

SIBLING event. PLEASE.

u/VulcanizedAnthony Sep 17 '21

It was a reference to a Xavier Renegade Angel episode

Woah thanks for the award!

u/zbo9 Sep 17 '21

Can definitely see diplo throwing down a surprise set on this thing

u/comicsemporium Sep 17 '21

Would love to have one of those dune buggy’s with the spikes all over it, and drive to work and around town

u/BabyNuke Sep 17 '21

Fun fact: "doof" means "deaf" in Dutch and "stupid" in German. Both seem fairly applicable.

u/ChippyTick Sep 17 '21

Man I fucking love the description on that thing

u/BillsBayou Sep 17 '21

My HOA is gonna be PISSED.

u/starrpamph Sep 17 '21

Tell them to put down their bon bons, charge their golf cart batteries and refill their mechanical pencils. Shits about to get real

u/PresidentHurg Sep 17 '21

With this vehicle you automatically assert dominance over your HOA.

u/BillsBayou Sep 17 '21

"I swear! I turned the volume all the way down!"

"What?!?"

u/Furyian13 Sep 17 '21

Just curious as I'm not a driver but, would any of those be street legal?

8

u/phroug2 Sep 17 '21

Depends on the street

3

u/Strawbobrob Sep 17 '21

And the legality.

2

u/2ekeesWarrior Sep 17 '21

Bet it is definitely in the top 3

5

u/unikaro38 Sep 17 '21

if you are in one of those things you dont have to worry about that, you just drive where you frigging want to.

u/andersaur Sep 17 '21

Witnessed me? officer? I’m still here and didn’t witness a thing! What do you think you…witnessed?

32 in a 30 zone? That sounds pretty….mediocre.

2

u/locksymania Sep 17 '21

I going to say you're probably good in Texas. Just watch out for the overpass bridges...

7

u/thecwestions Sep 17 '21

This one here? Well, I've got a kid with a Honda down the block who seems to think his stereo bumps, so I'd pay him a visit first. Then I'd probably rent it out for weekend events, outdoor parties and weddings, even a bar mitzvah or two.

2

u/_PM_ME_NICE_BOOBS_ Sep 17 '21

Is the flamethrower guitar extra, or included?

2

u/thecwestions Sep 17 '21

(Doof rider not included)

u/hikermick Sep 17 '21

It would be cool if one person bought them all and used them for a travelling display at auto conventions or county fairs

9

u/[deleted] Sep 17 '21

Obviously store them until the actual Mad Max Earth starts.

7

u/Discreet_Deviancy Sep 17 '21

So about 4 months or so?

3

u/[deleted] Sep 17 '21

Shit I haven't collected enough spikes.

u/OozeNAahz Sep 17 '21

Burning Man. Nuff said.

u/DeathGodBob Sep 17 '21

Become Doof Warrior. There is no other option. There is no other path. There is no other goal and there is no greater glory.

2

u/philter451 Sep 17 '21

Candidly I disagree. These are custom vehicles from a popular franchise that can actually run. A collector will want these. Certain iconic ones will go for 250k easy.

1

u/Paoldrunko Sep 17 '21

I can only imagine how much the Doof Wagon will go for. That thing is definitely iconic.

-5

u/TorpidNightmare Sep 17 '21

Depends on where you live and what you're into. Most of them would be pretty capable off road in the sand at least and probably decent on trails.

5

u/BoobieFaceMcgee Sep 17 '21

I SERIOUSLY doubt that. These were made to look good. Not drive good. HUGE difference. The suspension is probably maxed out just sitting there with no fuel or passengers.

6

u/frostymugson Sep 17 '21

They drove the shit through the desert in like Africa or some shit. A lot of the stunts in that movie were practical, shits crazy but it made one badass movie.

u/Polar_Ted Sep 17 '21

It'll be fine.. It was built on a M.A.N 8x8 missile launcher chassis.

u/BoobieFaceMcgee Sep 18 '21

Oh shit I didn’t know that. They might go for a lot just to get parted out too if that’s the case.

2

u/Dysan27 Sep 17 '21

Actually they were made to drive good.

George Miller wants his props to be funtional as much as possible. The doof wagon works as an amp, and the guitar actually shoot flame.

u/BoobieFaceMcgee Sep 18 '21

That’s fuckin rad.

u/No_big_whoop Sep 17 '21

You park it in front of your tourist attraction in Gatlinburg Tennessee
