Uber would have been cheaper

When the sheriff had to haul Robert Dear off to jail, this is the snappy little vehicle he assigned to the task. But isn't Colorado supposed to be leading us down the eco-sensitive path? I mean, sure, I understand why Colorado Springs might shy away from the Prius hybrid, but this monstrosity looks more suitable for storming the headquarters of Islamic State than for transporting a solitary gun nut. It's a Lenco BEAR (Ballistic Equipped Armored Response vehicle), and according to the company website it can accommodate fifteen "fully equipped" members of a SWAT team. No information on its EPA gas mileage.
