Not really. Nobody said they had to work, though.

That Merak is designed as a road car, therefore it fits the criteria. A dogsled is designed for snow, so it too fits. The Merak will spend its time broken down, which puts it in the same boat as a dog-less sled.

There seemed to be a theme, and then you lost it at the road car. Not sure what road car would’ve been fun and gone with the rest though...

Other than being generally ex-mil, I dont’ know that there was much of a theme. There’s generally an ex-mil answer for specific off-road situations, but on-road? Wait, wait, I got this. Ike’s staff car garage.

This is my pick. Mountain, water, snow and sand are no problem. The roads will suffer and I should probably pick something different but too bad, I'm on mobile.
