jalopnik goes drag
What's an even cooler way to get around the pits than a
Saleen Th!nk? How about a miniature Ford Bronco. We saw a few of these zipping around

Remember the
electric Hummer H9T we found on Ebay? Well, during our review of the
Mazdaspeed3, we came across another, this one just chillin' in a University of Wisconsin parking lot up in Madison. Okay, so this obviously isn't one of the General's official

The cleverly designed mini-Hummer obviously takes advantage of the design heritage of the brand, but bucks at least two Hummer brand trends by making room for passengers and visibility a priority.
