'No, my cars are good enough that I can be a Nazi!'

It can't realistically tow heavy loads cause the hitch breaks off, and it can't travel far with heavy loads. Definitely not the king tiger of trucks.

    Wasn't the king tiger notorious for breaking down constantly? Or was that a different German WW2 tank?

    Also dangerous for crews. Sherman tank crews had a 75% survival rating when their tank got bust. I think the tiger had an 80% death rate or something.
