Burning Man Transportation

The Dogsled

This hand-built, pedal-powered, four-wheeler was built by a father/son team as part of the Burning Man Festival - a festival described by its organizers as an experiment in community, radical self-expression, and radical self-reliance. Yeah: that sounds about right. It's called the Dogsled. Not sure why. It doesn't have anything pulling it and it seats four.

Implications - You definitely wouldn't go unnoticed cruising down the street in this sizzlin' automobile, and traffic would definitely part to let you through. This uniquely hot vehicle will inspire car fanatics and crafty engineers to create their own unusual automobiles. Check out this hot auto and get inspired.
