Heh heh, I think I'd prefer a hover chair though.

One day you will need a license or a permit for those things. LOL, they will probably treat them as those lame Mopeds and not allow them on the sidewalks either.

Pfft, forget that, real men get one of these.

Note: I'm not terribly surprised that this is the most viewed item for people who looked at this.

What yanquish prize, I could hear them say "only 19,999.95 dollars!"

But nah, I'd take them both and store them into my russian nuclear powered submarine, along with my abraham and three comanches...

This Hummer-replacement is at home anywhere, from the swamps of Dagobah, to the Jundland Wastes, to the driveway of my McMansion! As a proud owner, I want to share some of the pros and cons to Badonkadonk ownership:

PROS
-----
* With room for five, it easily accommodates my 2.5 kids, as well as our new R2 unit (though, R2 does have to be secured externally on long family road trips).
*The centrifugal clutch is a dream, giving you easy and confident access to all 13 gears. It's a transmission built for every Wookie.
*The pivoting joystick is a blessing in disguise. With a small boy still in diapers, it can get pretty ripe in the crew quarters. No problem, just pop the hatch and drive from the exposed standing position. It's a breath of fresh air, literally.
*With a small upgrade to the repulsor lift I no longer have to parallel park...now I just park OVER everyone else!

But, with awesome power comes awesome responsibilities. Some of the JL's drawbacks...

CONS
-----
*The destination charge (from Tatooine to Seattle) was over 25,000 credits!
*6hp is good for everyday driving, but you ain't completing no Kessel Run in less than 12 parsecs with this bad boy...
*Our R2 unit is new because I ran over the old one. The JL421 DOES have some blind spots: do watch out for blaster fire from 4 o'clock.
*The only good Badonkadonk mechanics speak Jawa.

So, if you're willing to tackle some of these challenges, than I would say you should consider the JL421 as your next Outer Rim transport!


As for the item itself:



I've got Wagner's the Ride of the Valkyries stuck in my head after seeing that.
