    Default Armed SUV is designed to defend, protect.

    The sport-utility vehicle that rolls out of the Ibis Tek shop looks just like those driven by millions of soccer moms.

    But with a flip of the switch, out of the sunroof pops weaponry ranging from a .50-caliber M2 machine gun to an MK-19, 40 mm grenade launcher.

    An Ibis ride with all the trimmings -- including options like armor plating that will stop a 7.62mm armor-piercing bullet -- will set you back about $500,000.

    And that's without the actual firepower: the company outfits the cars with defensive systems including the hidden, laser-guided gun platforms, but the clients themselves must buy their own guns, which are mounted only upon delivery.

    Gas mileage is another matter. Ibis Tek vehicles can weigh as much as 11,000 pounds and miles to the gallon can dip into the single digits.
