6x6 Class "C"...?
I think this would be considered a Class C (chassis mount) but not sure. Regardless, I cannot afford one, but kinda' neat! https://autos.yahoo.com/news/zetros--2733-mercedes-6%C3%976-provides-luxu...

Ummm... a definition seems to be needed... from a Wikipedia article:
"Large American trucks with dual tires on the rear axles and two driven axles are officially designated as 4×4s, despite having six driven wheels, because the "dual" wheels behave as a single wheel for traction and classification purposes, and are not individually powered. True 6x6 vehicles with three powered axles such as the famous M35 2½ ton cargo truck used by the U.S. Army has three axles (two rear, one front), all of them driven. This vehicle is a true 6×6, as is the Pinzgauer, which is popular with defense forces around the globe." (emphasis added)
That's the way I've always understood it.
