Kanye West's $500K luxury tank from the 'Jesus Is King' era was rumoured to have been sold to a reality show duo

The Diesel Brothers, a reality television pair comprising of Dave "Heavy D" Sparks and Dave "Diesel Dave" Kiley, have apparently purchased a luxury tank owned by the rapper formerly known as Kanye West.

According to TMZ, Sparks and Kiley originally contacted Ye several years ago in regards to preparations for some truck-related work. While those intentions never materialised, "someone from Kanye's crew" contacted the two in October of last year to assess their interest in purchasing the $500,000 Ripsaw EV2 owned by the Donda 2 musician.

The vehicle, which has been dubbed a "luxury tank," is hard to come by. While Sparks did not reveal the specific amount of the purchase from Ye to TMZ, the transaction was described as a "great deal" of indeterminate sizes in Monday's storey.

The news of the luxury tank sale comes two years after a Business Insider analysis of the Ripsaw EV2, which was described as a vehicle with militaristic antecedents and a final price tag that is believed to be depending on the unique needs of a certain buyer.
