Not really a gadget, but truly, not a motorcycle either: the Big Toe, as it was named, is a huge motorcycle, standing at 7.5 feet high (2.3 meters). And, what is more important, it can be used on public roads.
Big Toe is powered by a 1975 Vintage Type E Jaguar SOHC 2 valve 60 degree 300HP 5.3L 12cylinder engine. Intake comes from 45mm twin choke Weber carburetors and a custom stainless muffler system handles the exhaust.
A mouthfull alright: Vulocity Automatic GPS Mileage Logger. But the idea behind is quite ingenious and interesting: you can register your mileage. It can be good for business, for personal finance, any option that requires recording the distances you drive around.
The Vulocity automatic mileage logger logs your commuting and business miles while driving your personal vehicle. Mileage is calculated using GPS technology and complete trip information is sent to the Vulocity web solution over cell networks. Just keep it fully charged or plugged into your car’s cigarette power socket. No software or other special items are required!

Oh, yes, you have to be lazy to want one of these things: a mini remote controlled forklift to bring our beverages closer to the hand. Yes, it is easier and less time consuming to actually go and pick up the drink, but it isn’t nearly as much fun as this method. See the movie below to understand what I am saying (or go and buy it, if you want to):
Did you ever drive a Saab? If yes, did you ever drive a Saab Aero X? If yes, you are among the few ones. But for the rest of us, we can now “drive” the Saab Aero X inspired skis, by Salomon.
The price of the above ski set is at around $1000 in UK.
The only problem I have (the guys at carscoop have it also) is I fail to see the resemblance to the car whatsoever…
Benoit Saint Venant, Head of Design at Salomon said, “This collaboration is testament to the fact that Saab and Salomon complement each other perfectly and understand each other’s independent-minded target audiences. Both brands are celebrating their 60-year anniversary this year and together represent cutting edge design when it comes to sporty, activity-related products.”
Sure, why not?
It’s a good time to be a kid today. And I am not talking about those that are young at heart, but about real, up to 10 years old, kids.
If I ever wanted a red Porsche when I was a kid I can’t remember, but I am sure I never thought I would actually own a Porsche when I was 10.
Yes, in the picture above is a Porsche Sled. Yes, designed and built by Porsche.
What more could you want? Details? You have to be more than 3 years old and be less than 60 kilos. Now, just wait for the snow.

Control the air suspension of your car with the XBox remote controller? Now that sounds interesting.
First, get your air suspension in place. You might think you don’t need an Air Suspension, but you sure do if you want to use the XBox controller.
AutoLoc’s™ Air Command™ air bag suspension controller unit gives you complete control over your air bag suspension system. Featuring fully programmable settings and up to 8 user-defined presents as well as built-in relay technology to control the air compressor, the Air Command™ unit gives you total management of your air bag system. Control each individual air bag, front and back separately, or all four bags at once! Viewing and adjusting your settings is a breeze thanks to the unit’s large LCD screen which features backlit illumination for easy operation at night!
Now, all you have to do is use your remote controller with it and that’s it. You still have to be careful, though, that kids don’t try to play Carmageddon with it… You can find the complete kit here
He he, this is cool. Lemaster63, a user from instructables.com decided to build a Flintstones car, after his grandchildren dressed up as Pebbles and Bambam for Halloween. So, if you want to see how he did it, click HERE to see full instructions.
The official description of the 2000XR Motorboard on the Roth website starts with “The lightest, most powerful Personal Transportation Device on the market just got a lot lighter, and whole lot more powerful!”. And at first sight you’d think this is some crazy headline to get the product’s sales up. But actually, they’re for good. I mean, the thing reaches a top speed of 15 mph lbs and, at a weight of only 16.5 lbs, it’s easy to fold up and carry it around. Oh, almost forgot, all that comes at $799.99.
