Roddler – The Hot Rod Pram That Makes You Wanna Make a Baby

by Jay Garrett on December 22, 2009

Yet another one of my friends is about to become a dad.

Now, I’d like to think that if I became a parent I’d be more about what’s best for the kid rather than getting a trendy pushchair, or all-terrain buggy…….

But then I saw this on Kid Kustom USA’s site – it almost made me want to procreate!

Meet the Roddler.

Designed with obvious hot rod-styling cues with “high-end materials” this is a must have for any new father surely?

It has chrome wheels, fin-shaped fenders and white wall tyres, colour-coded brakes, and chrome grips for pity’s sake!

There’s also an ultrasuede seat insert for comfort and carbon vinyl leatherette for the seat and top for added durability. See – it is practical ;)

It costs $2000 but for an extra $500 you can get a model that transforms into a trike when your child is old enough to propel themselves :)

So – it will just carry on being useful.

Zap Alias – Electric 3 Wheeler On Sale Soon

by Jay Garrett on June 30, 2008

Zap Alias FrontZAP mentioned this green vehicle at the Detroit Motor show earlier in the year and it looks like the company has now finally turned out a prototype.

Looking like an American retro-rodded version of the Grinall Scorpion it apparently isn’t capable of moving off the parking lot on its own just yet.

That should soon change as it was reportedly on its way to California where it’ll get fitted with a motor.

The company is apparently promising to have its first cars on the road next year when the Alias here is expected to sell for about $33,000.
