For me, it's not just a stripped down car that would be of interest, but a car built to last forever because every single part was designed to be easily repairable. Nothing proprietary. Made 100% from open source components with full instructions that can easily be made by sourcing the stock components globally. This may sound too good to be true, but it is happening with tractors. And if you think about it, tractors and agricultural equipment grow our food and should not have vendor lock-in and proprietary parts sourced from only one supplier. Looking at you John Deere.
I recognize that tractors are usually driven on private property sidestepping a lot of regulation that apply to cars. But it seems like a step in the right direction.
Came across the LifeTrac 6 and I love the concept.
The LifeTrac 6 looks very cool! I like that the japanese companies support a lot of their older vehicles. Tractors have been taking a hit lately. I remember the Deere scandal about updates and stuff, making them inoperable.
