Is that a control horn on the bottom of the aerofoil..... Its probably for when he cruises 260 kph, the wheels dont spin when he accelerates. He pulls a lever in the cockpit that increases its angle of attack.... What a machine.

The wing and side bits are not to my tastes but each to their own. The main problem I see is that there is greatly reduced room and access in the rear tray, defeats the purpose of having a ute when you could probably fit the same amount of stuff, if not more, in a sedan. :

It's a case of overaccessorising. They wanted cool, but instead got tool.

Some people should actually look at what they create and ask themselves, "does this look good?"

Man you guys are harsh.
The guy obviously owns a mobile clothes ironing business and that is his ironing board. Sort of like those mobile dog wash places and the bath in the trailer thing.

Agreed, he would have to be like 7 foot tall.

Well, he's at a shopping centre so maybe the thing is really a shopping trolley for gigantic people, and that's the handle?
