    AI really doesn’t understand anything. You could sneeze in the general direction of that thing and it would tip over.

            No it was a project back in the 1950 I think and it was this big mobile lab but because there was this belief that rounded tires preformed better in the snow the builders sanded the tread off the off-road tires they got also the engines while they had plenty of torque the fastest the artic explorer could go was 2 mph and when it finally arrived at the artic it got stuck immediately and moved faster in reverse the scientists got soo fed up with constantly digging the 70ton paper weight free that they just gave up and started using it was a small stationary base until the ice under it broke then 20 years later vw sent a bone stock Beatle that managed be the first car to drive across the artic with 0 issues

              Yeah, I was conflating two different Top Gear specials; one where they drove to the North Pole in pick-up trucks and another where they drove across Botswana and were out-performed by a stock Beetle.

      Also the mirrors are unusable by the driver, and the right side mirror isn’t even connected.
