Hmmn, their website seems a little OTT, but I like the form factor of the car/truck.

Looks like it might be a useful combination of capabilities if it works. Sort of an offroad buggy with good on-road capabilities.

I guess that is really what I was getting at...the dream/fantasy factor rather than the concept.

If the guy builds it then good luck to him.

it's not even a vehicle it's a CAD model

Hmmm. Looks to me like one of those things that push airliners back off the stand.

Maybe he's sponsored by Tonka

It might have one of those completely chrome V16 engines with the massive exhausts................

at least it runs on proper fuel

I don't often slag off other peoples creations, but what a total unutterable pile of excrement, it almost makes a Hummer look good & as already said, is nothing more than a clever bit of CAD manipulation - awful long way from being a vehicle!
Let's just hope it never gets further than fantasy

If those are 15" wheels and tyres then the cabin is very small


Confused but excited. - 9/11/09 at 07:14 PM

They are 40" wheels.........Dear Santa

Don't mind the looks personally, but "titanium monocoque" on its own means it's unlikely to ever get to the road in that specification.

What's the transaxle all about though? sounds like the guy is building a vehicle to show off his patented design.

no doubt the modern version of the Roadless Forestry Land Rover

Imagine what it would be like to drive,if the wheels were out of balance, or the power steering failed?......

Production od 1 car per month with the mentioned specifications?
I would be very surprised if they make even a running prototype.
