When flipping through the pages of Paleontology books or watching documentary shows on television that tackles on dinosaurs, the T rex is always given special notice since it is labeled as the “king of dinosaurs.” You might certainly agree that it is indeed the scariest-looking and the most fear-causing and deadly creature that has ever existed in the earth’s entire history. But have you ever heard that a number of T rex have been spotted on the streets and major roads? Well, if you’re thinking about the dinosaur, no it’s not. The one I am referring to is actually a vehicle called the T rex car.
Though it seems to be a bit odd having been named after a super large and fearsome dinosaur, the T rex car is indeed nothing to be scared of. It has a unique design which sets it apart from the traditional cars, and even looks quite futuristic due to its features and details. Built by the brilliant minds that compose a Quebec-based auto/bike builder company, the Campagna Corporation, the T rex car can actually be considered as half motorcycle and half car. It combines the handling capabilities and the look of a race car with the fuel-economizing features of a motorcycle. It has a 4-cylinder 1.4 liter engine which can accelerate from 0 to 97 kilometers per hour in just a matter of 3.5 seconds. It has an amazing top speed of about 253 kph or 157 miles per hour. Though it is classified under the motorcycle market, the interior of a T rex car has two side by side seats, a foot pedal box as well as seat belts which ensure safety. It is equipped with a manual transmission which resembles closely to a motorcycle transmission than those of cars.
If you want a wacky and untraditional kind of vehicle which is street-legal among the fifty states and in Canada, then the T rex car would be a great choice. The inventors as well as some of the owners of this particular kind of vehicle reiterates that it can really give you the thrills of riding a motorcycle but in a way that is much safer and more practical. Though the set up of the steering wheel and the foot pedals may be conventional and pretty familiar, the lack of windshield or doors (which is optional) makes it incredibly lighter than the average cars. If you happen to stand in front of it, you will think of it as a muscled up and customized race car vehicle but once you take a peek on its backside, you will notice that there is a large motorcycle wheel which makes the design even more interesting.
When it comes to riding in style without sacrificing the comforts that one can get when riding a car, the T rex car is something worth considering. As you drive this baby down the street, it will surely turn heads and get the attention of people because it easily stands out among the others.
