GTE 696
« on: November 24, 2024, 08:02:53 PM »
"The U.S. Department of Government Efficiency, headed by billionaire Elon Musk, has just approved the purchase of 10,000 'budget-friendly' Mars rovers. The manned rovers (final prototype shown below) will be produced exclusively by a Tesla/Space-X joint venture and will cost the U.S. Government a mere $475 million each."

Please identify this vehicle and its builder for a point.
