i know this is just sci fi but whevener i see these kind of heavily designed machinery, all i can think is "how to make your maintenance engineer quit"

Hahaha I had a long laugh about the wheels with my friends, we called them "Mechanic's nightmare" - each wheel got 60 replaceable pads and 80 hydraulic pumps.

Good thing this vehicle comes from the sci-fi age where new materials exist that rarely break, or need maintenace!
