text: cant you take the bigfoot monster truck to mars to do explorin?   you can do it, but with some modifications:  1. you need to replace tyres... the ones with air wont work there. 2. you need to refit body parts of super light weight materials... the weight is crucial in space program, the heavier, the more fuel it will require to lift it off the ground 3. you will have to dissassemble the entire machine including the engine to fit it into the space shuttle. then you need an engineer to assemble it back 4. you will need to modify the design to withstand the air preasure in mars. it is not like earth. 5. you will need special fuel to run it on mars... the ones they sent ran on batteries. so another huge load of batteries required.  well from the looks of it... you already have a shuttle that can travel in space and withstand high preasure... you already have the fuel in the shuttle to make it run. you already have tyres that withstand high and low preasures.... you already have the heat shields in place... you already have people who know how to fly it.... you already have the material that will require to be remolded and refitted... well... all you need to do is modify the shuttle to look like a bigfoot monster truck.
