They are often called housewife tanks in Germany.


"Hausfrauenpanzer", pronounced somewhat like "House-Frown-Pun-Tser". In case anyone was wondering.


As a bit of a WW2 historian/wargamer, that is the most hilarious thing I've heard in a long time... thank you from my particular context :)


Interesting. I’ve never heard that before, but I have heard them called Einkaufspanzer (shopping tanks) several times. The implication being it’s the tank you use to do your grocery shopping in.


That's brilliant.


Brilliant.


Hilarious - my family and I joke and call the inevitable massive chevy suburbans "Mom Tanks"


Chelsea tractors
