How does he drive that thing without arms, anyway?

That might work with a helicopter, but he has to use pedals as well as steer in a car.

Depends how prehensile his body is, could be pressing the gas with his... torso?

I imagine the further the yoke is moved the faster it goes.

Like the walk stick for an fps.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Driving a car with a yoke is completely doable.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago

With no fingers? Seems difficult.

You ever see that episode of South Park where Mr. Garrison invents a new form of transportation so he doesn't have to go through the airline anymore?

When you're trying to merge but they won't let you in: "Hey buddy! Give peas a chance!"

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago

Peas was never an option.

As a kid we used to go to the Beaulieu Motor Museum quite a lot, and I was always fascinated by the Outspan orange car, which is almost identical to this. But orange.

I’m assuming the Pea is also based on a Mini.

A bright orange car shaped like an orange, belting around a track at almost certainly dangerous speeds.

This is what happens when you fart in a smart car.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

At least it looks like you can get in and out of the doors at the side, rather than the BMW Isetta which amusingly coupled the front-only opening with having no reverse gear.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

Put a stem on top, call it Apple Car or iCar.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 days ago (2 children)

I legit want one, although at 6'3" I probably can't fit

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Looks like the engine is in the back, and seat is placed so you shouldn't have weight distribution issues, it shouldn't actually roll. Your head should have plenty of room. Now all we need to do is shorten your legs 🤔

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

Looks like it would scale well.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 days ago (2 children)

That's the first car I've ever seen that I instantly desired to own with all my heart. Maybe I can just get my honda repainted that color...would that satisfy the craving?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

I want one big enough to mount a recliner in it.

Maybe make it a short range EV....

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

Try to drive past a playground but the kids play soccer with your car for 20 minutes.

Autobots roll out!

rest in peas

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 days ago

I GOTTA GO PEE!!!

Viscous players (from deadlock) over the moon

Life is simpler in the pea

60mph in that? Someone felt suicidal...

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 days ago (1 children)

You just need a 5 point seatbelt and an helmet. Maybe a padded jacket too. And a mouthguard. Look, if you are not ready to really commit to the game you are better off not playing.

Also padded gloves and motorcycle boots.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

I wore flip flops and T-shirts on motorcycles when I was younger. Helmets not required... This thing looks super fucking safe to me.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago

It is. Sounds like it was made to be in an ad ad.

This is what happens when an isetta eats shellfish

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

They better put that in Forza Horizon 6 so I can at least drive it virtually

"Aw you two look cute, like a pair of peas in a pod, that it's also a pea. A peapod, if you will"

"I will not"

"squirrel!!!! ........... and we're rolling, and we're rolling"

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

I couldnt get in even if Anna Kendrick sat there in a bikini telling me to get in. Way to tall and wide for that thing.
