Gotta watch those Amish; just when you think they don't embrace tech, this crops up. Actuall,y it is a very valuable [race horse trainer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/health-monitoring-solution) that allows three people to ride behind the horse and study its every movement, yes even #2. ROUSCH Technologies came up with the [mechanical mustang](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/corleo) that is actually powered by a [Volvo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/volvo-xc) engine and uses a modified pickup suspension. The company developed this vehicle with the idea of mass producing the ultra odd gizmo.
