I was just watching a commercial for this show and could swear I saw a shot of a Panzer Mk. IV being repossessed. I wasn't aware any of these tanks were privately owned in the U.S.
I don't watch this show, but if someone does and happens to see this episode, I'd appreciate it if you could clue me in about this tank.

Yeah, I saw that promo to... it also had a shot of a flame thrower.. and that Sonia quit... I'm going out on a limb here and say the tank isn't involved how they lead you to thyink... it's all total BULL SPIT... they should stop calling this crap "Reality".. and call it a SitCom.....

As a former guy in the business, I know what you mean. This show is silly. I watched one episode and that was it.
But I am interested in the panzer...

Here is a video of them repossessing a tank. Not sure if it is Matt or Froy driving. Couldn't be Sonia, she couldn't fit through the turret.

great video, worth loading for anyone who has ever carried vehicles on tandem trailers or low-loaders, but thats a Soviet T34/85...much more common than any genuine PZKW would be..
who would they take with them who even knows how to drive one?
they would have to find someone with practical intelligence...
where the hell are they going to find such a person in latino LA?
Haven't seen the episode, but I was a radio repairman assigned to a Tank Company in the Marine Corps using M60s. Basic operation is not that difficult, but due to limited visibility, they usually have a "ground guide" to help maneuver, and when operating in a tactical situation, you have the vehicle commander in the turret that provides directions to the driver.
