I've so got to get me one of those.

The thing I don't get is, how is an 1100 pound "vehicle" gonna do 40mph with a 6hp motor?!

1. badonkadonk
An ‘ebonic’ expression for an extremely curvaceous female behind. Women who possess this feature usually have a small waist that violently explodes into a round and juicy posterior (e.g., 34c, 24, 38). Other characteristics would be moderately wide hips and a large amount of booty cleavage (i.e, depth of butt-crack).
Her badonkadonk made a brotha pop mad wheelies
I thought I'd heard that word before, probably on Chapelle's Show.

Luke Loses his hand in The Empire Strikes back, Not Return of the Jedi.

I think it might be a hover craft. If so, you can get some serious speed with little HP. But they are not easy to drive.

It says the rubber skirt hides the wheels. I want to know how it hits 40mph with 6hp, a 10spd tranny?

1100.00 pounds, thats pretty light for an armored vehicle..

Ah, ok, i didn't read the page, I just looked at that pick. Having driven and help bult hover crafts, I could see how it could gain that speed. But with wheels, I dunno.

"Another plus is the fact that Wookies cannot fit through the tiny hatch and take over the land cruiser. I had an aftermarket anti-theft system installed, due to problems with Ewoks and Jawas running off with it"

I'll let you in on a secret, it's not really armord, a crossbow could take that out. I like crossbows they're nasty :)

if it was a hovercraft like before mentioned it would be uber-cool, thats just semi-cool

a really low gear ratio.

1:1?

1-1? That motor would never in a million years push that without a tranny. Even then it would have to be on a long smooth track.

this is pretty neat but why would amazon be selling it? weird stuff. I think what was being refered to was that Luke is shot in the hand trying to deflect a blaster bolt with his sabre. I wish i was a jedi going all crazy on some dudes flying sand yacht and hacking people up and raising heck!

actually 40mph wouldn't be too hard for that motor to push, the pictures make the vehicle look alot bigger than it actually is, its actually about the size of a go-cart. look at the cockpit pics once.

At an SAE student competition, one team reached over 55mph in their off-road vehicle.

It was comletely built by the university team and was powered by a Briggs engine (5-8hp).

So, 40mph can be done.

yeah my school is involved in supermileage competitions and they got theit car up to 65 at about 3/4ths throttle on a 2 hp engine, so that thing could definitly do 40
