The Dragon Wagon was purchased by Ford Sierra after the loss of her first spacecraft. It's a waved Bullit Green Ford '03 F-250 Superduty, equipped with a modular rear bay. It can be equipped to carry cargo, people or towing equipment for Ford's salvage business. Otherwise, the truck is pretty unremarkable as far as Fen vehicles goes. Ford loves it.


Attributes

Do it all: Modular cargo-area, capable of being fitted with towing equipment, storing tools, a basic cramped living compartment or for prisoner transport.

Road Ready: Still has the full road drivetrain, and can drive and carry and tow loads up to the manufacturer's rating.

Ramming Speed: Crashbars on the front, coupled with the truck's mass and velocity, are the spacecraft's only weapons.

Brotherhood of the left foot: It's a manual. It still needs to be driven as a manual.[1]

Quirks

American Iron: Navigation, speedometer, near every system aboard uses American customary units.... frustratingly so at times.[2]

Bullit Head: Loves car-chases. Loves bouncing over things.[3]

Dragonheart: With the speed drive engaged at full power, the exhausts belch smoke and slapstick flames at full throttle.

Powerjoker: The powerstroke diesel engine needs a good joke first thing in the morning to start every workday, preferably without re-using the same joke twice in a month.

Willin' to be movin': Towing a big load always goes better when the pilot sings along with a copy of Linda Ronstadt's cover of Willin' . It goes even better if someone aboard the towed object joins in in unison over the radio.

Notes

Has appeared in:

  1. Yes it can still stall in space
  2. There's a sticker with basic conversions somewhere in the cab
  3. As seen on Genaros
