Right, but the Cheetah is about the size of a pick up truck. I'm talking if you were to take a VAMP, measure it, multiply that by 18, you'd get at least a mid-size pick up. Not enough OOMPH to tow the large towed weapons platforms of the Joe team. I guess you could drop a larger mill into, beef up the suspension, axles and gears, but the VAMP is supposed to be fast and the trade off would be the speed for power.
Granted, if the Cheetah copied the drive train from the LM002, it'd be powered by a V-12; all kinds of power and speed, with a fuel economy that'll get you to the end of the drive way before you need to fill up again.

Some people, when trying to avoid thinking about those things that cause them pain, turn to drink, or perhaps food, or drugs... I turn not to any of those... I collect action figures, turning my mind to the hunt, so that I might find a mote of peace... Over the years, I've found that alcoholism is much more socially acceptable by far.
