We do not list electric chairs :wink:

Another one hard to categorize. Does it really fit the "tracked vehicle" class?
Meet the Tankchair :smile:

("Tankchair is for outdoor use only because it is so powerful it can ruin carpet and walls..." - Liz Soden, the person for who the Tankchair was first made)

Made at first by a husband who wanted his wife to be able to continue to hike with him and their kids after an accident...

It has know a "sibling": the Speedster

(motorcycle tires; speeds up to 30 mph...)

Which class for this one? 6-wheeler rocket? :grin:

eLMeR

Impressive, while "walking" in the street!
I'm sure it's a pal of Frank :grin:

It is taken from a short 3D animation movie. It is just a 3D (CG) object rendered over a background video layer.

The "Tractor-Spider-Crab" monster is a photorealistic digital character. Something of a whimsical agricultural urban nightmare, it actually looks more ominous and threatening than it really is. This hilarious mind-bending 3d animation was made by compositing a highly-detailed 3D animated model over actual video footage. The net result looks totally convincing and pricelessly funny.

This one looks like a nightmare of Mater.
I don't know if it real or a good Gimp or Photoshop work nor if it really works if real, but I find it a little creepy...

Bad click. Did first an "edit" instead of a "quote" to reopen the thread. And old posts cannot be deleted, even if modified later...

it works as motorcycle
like the Amphicar works as a car

And how do we list this ? Is it a car, a motorcycle or boat? Noone can tell. :oh:

antp

Good question.
We excluded the "snow bikes" as usually the criteria was that it should be useable on a normal road (i.e. wheeled or tracked)
But this thing matches that criteria despite not being wheeled nor tracked :figti:

eLMeR

The FAQ says: "we [list] cars, bikes, trucks[,] busses[,] farming vehicles, earthmoving equipment and warehouse/airport vehicles.
We won't include trains, trams, planes, boats or non-motorized vehicles."

How will this thing be categorized? :alarmclock119:
