Sourcing its vehicle design from a community of contributors and using micro-factory retailers to build and distribute them, the Local Motors concept is a new take on car development, sales, and construction. The Rally Fighter is the first product out of the company, and as this video shows, it's pretty insanely awesome.
Sure, there are other vehicles that can do more or less what the Rally Fighter does (like Ford's F-150 Raptor), for more or less the same price. But the Local Motors business concept means it will be like no other ownership experience. So far about 70 of the vehicles have been reserved so far. For the full details on how and why Local Motors does what it does, hit up their site at the link below.
But before you do, check out their video of the Rally Fighter bombing through some vicious off-road terrain, getting explained by its creators, and then wreaking even more havoc. And watch to the end for a special chainsaw-wielding remix of Rick Ross's "Hustlin'."
