Roll out some sweet rides

Over the years there have been some pretty sweet vehicles in various media. I'm gonna show five of my favorite rides.

Eagle Five from Space Balls
When I was little I thought the idea of a house van was the coolest thing ever. You can have a bed and tv and stuff and you can drive it around. A Winnebago is like a house van except it's bigger and better. They got toilets too! Even better than that though is a Winnebago that can fly in space. And it's fast too. It can go to plaid!

Punisher's GTO from The Punisher
Classic car driven by a cool dude. Plus it has the pull down bullet-proof windshield cover. That would be nice to have some times.

Cyclone Armor from Robotech
Motorcycles are cool. I don't ride one or want to but I have to admit that they are still cool. What's cooler than a motorcycle? One that can turn into power armor. I would totally rock that out.

The Slave 1 from Star Wars
This ship is pretty cool. I feel like we were denied seeing it in action. There was that scene in Attack of the Clones but that wasn't really I battle. Come to think of it, The Slave 1 is a lot like its owner Bobba Fett. Really cool, but not presented as such in the movies. Fett gets made to look like a tool in Jedi. Am I right? Yeah, I am.

The Batmobile from Batman
Seriously, how could this not be on the list? It's the frickin batmobile! The Tim Burton version I think is the best. The show one was lame, the Schumacher versions were lame in the other direction, and I felt the Rumbler didn't have the coolness factor that this one had. The batmobile is a sweet ride and anybody with a heartbeat would love to drive. Driving it is the cool thing, not riding in it. Women who get attacked and Robin get to ride in it. Driving = cool, riding = not cool.

So these rides are cool and all but what about something a little more real? Ok, I got something for ya. It hasn't come out yet but when it does it's gonna be awesome.

Scion Fuse
Normally I don't dig on two door cars but I will totally make an exception for this one. Supa awesome. I would totally have mine painted black and add little wings on the back. Can you say mini-batmobile? To put it simply, I wants... this car.
