    Finally! A vehicle designed from the ground-up to kill unsighted pedestrians.

    Screw the Army having a quiet electric vehicle, why can't my milkman manage not to wake me every morning?

    And his Electric Vehicle can only do about 15mph and is armed with whipped cream.

    @beercheck:

    Rows and rows of disused milk floats
    stand dying in the dairy yard

    And a hundred lonely housewives clutch empty milk bottles to their hearts

    Hanging out their old love letters on the line to dry

    It's enough to make you stop believing when tears come

    fast and furious

    In a town called malice.

    Should have been efficiency instead of consumption, or lower rather than higher.

    That's what I want, a military vehicle that gets great gas mileage and provides no protection for the occupants! Why not just strap a machine gun to a golf cart?

    @Paul Y. don't drive too fast.: I'm not so sure, if they were going to add armor it would negate any of the bragged about gas savings with the extra weight. But this is probably not intended for direct combat zones anyway, more like sneak attacks.

    Anyone notice in the specs:

    * Miles per gallon: 21 (targeted across all drive circles) targeted is probably not a good choice of descriptor here...

    * Operational elevation before performance degradation: Up to 10,000 ft. ASL - ASL? = American Shuffleboard League? Or does this 10k feet mean that you can drop it out of the V-22 at that altitude?

    Isn't it cheaper to drop bombs on the baddies instead of this pedal-car? #militaryvehicles

    @HiramJahoovafat: Not really, bombs are very, very 'spensive. The vehicles (military aircraft) that carry the bombs are even more 'spensive. A dumb bomb can cost many tens of thousands of dollars. Smart or guided drop bombs can be hundreds of thousands of dollars, each. Tomahawk missiles are about $600k, each. Cruise missiles go up from there.

    If the military types could ever figure out how to connect with some 'eco-tail', as you so delicately put it, there might be a whole lot less wars. Then there'd be a whole lot more time for joyriding through the boonies, with some eco-chick at your side. #militaryvehicles
