Ok, so I need some cheap transport ideas that are FUN! Yes, I know that bicycles are cheap and efficient, or use a scooter or a wagon, but those aren't fun! My idea of fun is being stupid and difficult. 3nodding We need something that will hold one teenager in it, plus some luggage, or a roof to tie the luggage to. It needs to be cheap too. We need it to also be able to steer, because our neighbor's Cozy Coupe does not steer, and that causes frequent crashing. sweatdrop

Here are some examples of what we have done so far. I blurred out my friend's face, and yes this is my friend NOT ME. xd In these pictures, we are lugging kindling for our fire pit, and her luggage to stay the night.

get a smart car!

if you're going to build your own car, make sure you get a permit first.

there's nothing so sad as working hard to build your little motorized overgrown soap box derby racer and then having the evil government tell you its a no go. sweatdrop

edit: also, tell your friend to eat a sammich. she's far too thin! eek

Permit? Damn! Is there an age limit? I'm not 18 yet. sad

Yeah, we were hoping to try and modify a Little Tikes car from a yard sale or something, but that's all we've come up with.

Actually she just lacks muscle, but she is perfectly fine according to her BMI. She just needs more muscle, and to grown taller. She is also younger than me.

Ok, how about I clear this up. I just want a little thing that will be fun and easy to use. I don't want a real car at all. I was thinking something like a streetcar or a Go-Cart or something. Like the Cozy Coupe, it just has to be easy to use and fun, but it needs to be able to hold us. xD

Three words:
Dog plus skateboard.

3nodding

If my dog wouldn't try to kill me, I'd try it. I would suggest sitting on the skateboard at least until you and dog have an agreement.

Great ideas ya'll! xd

@ jfm: Aw, you're no fun. xD
@ Egga: We tried my wagon, and it can't steer unless somebody's pulling it, and that's no fun.
@ Mika: lol, we searched Google, but we can't find one that will fit one of us and luggage without breaking.
@ TSN: Hmmm...never thought of that. Might look into it...
@ Bikki: LOL! OMG that would be perfect. Now I need to find it in a store for cheap... xD
@ Noodles: 1) I don't own a skateboard, nor can I ride one. I have a scooter, but where does the luggage go? 2) Yoko is a small dog, and it hurts her to pull me for too long even with her harness.
@ Icon: lol, but somebody would have to push. xD
