Actually I like it. The rear of a vehicle should either have an engine or a truck bed. This makes a 928 into a complete vehicle.

Would be the first pickup where you can drive down the road and watch your stuff at the same time!

ROFL.

Seriously guys, this isn't the first 6 wheled sports car. F1 car's sued it in the 70's. Williams would use it today if they could, 4 in the back, two in the front.

Definately takes some time messing with springs and shocks, I've messed with 6 wheel cars in simulations, and finding a nice setup is a bit harder then 4 wheels.

Briggs & Stratton

Known primarily as makers of small air-cooled gasoline-powered engines, Briggs & Stratton commissioned the construction of an electric hybrid utilizing one of their engines. The base chassis was a Marathon C-360 van, which is clear when you see the unique 6-wheel layout. The custom body bore a strong resemblance to a station wagon, and the demonstration vehicle received considerable media attention in 1980. Briggs & Stratton claimed the vehicle was capable of travelling 85 miles on a gallon of gasoline. The vehicle is held by the Briggs & Stratton museum.

Cool, but those cars are just not racy enough. Here's mine. I figure I can carry more students around the track and my wife would probably prefer a four door anyway.

Not bad looking with four doors. :)
