Remember last year when little Cooper here Halloween'd as Marty McFly riding in his custom time-traveling DeLorean pushcart? Well he's back, this time as a Ghostbuster with a custom Ecto-1 pushcart. Shotgun! The push cart version of the Cadillac-based ghost mobile also is ma... / Continue →

These are the custom painted Spider Man and Venom (after the jump) motorcycle helmets made by DONY Custom. They're available on eBay for $430+ depending on the style. That's a lot of money, but can you really put a price on protecting your head and looking good at the same ti... / Continue →

74-year-old great grandmother Darlene Nestor was driving her 10-year old great grandson Gryffin and his 4-year old brother around at 60MPH when she passed out mid-sentence (typical great grandmother move!). So what did Gryffin do? Open his door and roll out into traffic like ... / Continue →

This is a video of motorcyclist Bossaucey cruising around in Utah (and wearing a helmet-cam) when he spots a SUV with a coffee mug on it's bumper. So what does he do? What any aspiring daredevil would: speeds up, picks it up, then returns it to its owner. I like how when he ... / Continue →

Remember when Kia and DC Entertainment got together to customize a car for each member of the Justice League? Well here's the Optima Hybrid Superman one. It, uh, it's really something. I'm just having a hard time believing Superman would drive a Kia. "Of course he would." ... / Continue →

This is a video of slingshot nutjob Jorge Sprave's chainsaw-javelin shooting slingshot. It fires a little chainsaw on a pole. Its actual usefulness as an effective weapon is next to zero but the RAD FACTOR, well, the rad factor is a solid six out of ten. "That isn't very hig... / Continue →

This is a video of a guy unloading his custom boat into the water from the back of his custom truck. Together they make one badass looking vehicle. Separately they make one badass looking boat and one awkward looking truck. Together and banging a helicopter -- now that's the... / Continue →

In other news, run over cats are up 400%. An animal adoption charity in New Zealand has successfully taught several dogs how to drive (including steering, shifting in and out of park, and pedal use) to prove to potential adopters how smart dogs are and how you could never in a... / Continue →

This is Peter Cooper's Warthog replica (photo documentary of the build HERE). But now it can be YOUR Warthog replica, because he's selling it. For how much? No clue, he just says "Reasonable offers considered." Unfortunately, apparently Peter didn't consider "Give it to me ... / Continue →

This is a video of Rickard Nillson and his tractor. Except his tractor is no ordinary hayride-pulling tractor, he stuffed a Volvo 240 turbocharged engine in the thing. Now it goes FAST. And does DONUTS. I can honestly say I've never wanted to die in a tractor related incide... / Continue →

This is reader Morgan's R2-D2 themed Vespa. He did it all himrself and, obviously, did a great job. You know, I modded a Vespa once. "What was the theme?" Wrecked! *waiting for laughter* Wrecked -- as in I crashed it! *crickets chirping* Come on, that one went over gre... / Continue →

This is a series of nude yoga experts bodypainted and posing to look like motorcycles. The shoot was executed by creative firm i.d.e.a. as promotional material for the Progressive International Motorcycle Show. No word how many MPG's the lady-bikes get, but I'm hoping a gall... / Continue →

This is a go-cart made by Eric Seenstra using nothing but LEGO pieces. It actually goes (although apparently it's a work in process and can't be steered yet), can carry at least the weight of at least that skinny kid in the picture, and probably won't win in a round of Mario K... / Continue →

This is a triceratops tractor. It's a tractor with a metal triceratops attached to it that can move its head and open its mouth. It's the opposite of a muscle car. Get it? Because it's only bones! LOLOLKILLMENOW. Still, I'd drive it. Probably on the sidewalk. I would al... / Continue →

Because I'm afraid I won't stop getting the tip until I actually post it, this is a licensed set of 'The Dark Knight Rises' motorcycle leathers from UD Replicas. I have the sneaking suspicion they're the exact same ones they were offering as the 'The Dark Knight' set I posted b... / Continue →

This is a video of the Batpod inspired motorcycle some engineering genius managed to piece together in Vietnam. It's pretty damn impressive considering it looks like it was built entirely out of parts that had fallen off other cars. Granted it's not something I'd risk MY life... / Continue →

Because regularly scaring the everliving hell out of your partner is the foundation of every solid relationship, this is a video of a guy driving down the road behind a tractor trailer being towed when he startles his wife awake and tells her they're about to crash. Man, her s... / Continue →

This is MIT grad student Charles Guan and his Chibikart, a 26MPH electric go-cart inspired by the ones from everyone's favorite N64 drinking game, Mario Kart. Now I'm not sure what 26MPH feels like when you're that close to the ground with nothing between your face and a wall ... / Continue →
