The Rosenbauer Panther 8X8

 I don't know if I would trust the large windows on this vehicle, but it's definitely pretty bad-ass.  :)  I think it would make a great transport for tools, equipment, and meds -- and a few personnel.

The sliding flat panel storage units don't give a lot of footholds for attackers to hang on to and it features a large platform on top for crew to defend the vehicle.

Also note the angled cab which would make running over "debris" a little easier.

You can watch the videos below to see a computer simulation (the top video) and the other video which shows a different configuration.





The Critter Gitter

Like an ATV mixed with a Hummer and given a healthy dose of steroids, the Critter Gitter ($340,000) is an unstoppable force of oversized awesomeness. Weighing in at 13,250 lbs., powered by an 8.2L big-block V8, measuring 30 feet long, and sporting 64-inch tires, these crazy hunting vehicles let you go pretty much anywhere you need to get off the shot, whether you're hunting wild game, wild hog, or large packs of the undead.

You can also check out some of their products at the Critter Gitter web site.  :)  This is definitely the kind of vehicle you want to use to take your team into an infected area to scavenge for supplies.
