    The longest video I see is about 5 minutes. Why? Because that's about all the longer the batteries are going to power them! I don't see the batteries. Those babies are going to really suck up the power so huge batteries are a must. And then you use a lot of power hauling the batteries. I can see steering being a problem also since the wheels don't have a pivot point close to the wheel hub.

    Could be a lot of fun, and very interesting, but I'm afraid far from practical at this point. Maybe someday. After all, gasoline or electric supply are hard to come by 20 miles inside the mountains away from the nearest settlement of people, let alone town! Nope, they're not going to displace ATVs or UTVs or trail bikes for a looooooooonnnnnnnnngggggggggg time! Now if they would put a small gas engine powering a hydraulic pump and hydraulic motors on the wheels they just might have something!
