Rides of Maker Faire

The highlights of Maker Faire for me were (1) getting to ride in a 1967 Cadillac Hearse, powered by propane (James sez, "I get 20 mpg and propane costs $2/gallon. The speedometer read 105 mph on the Dumbarton Bridge on the way here!") and (2) getting to drive the MAKE Fire Truck home. Luckily, I got photos of both. Click on the fire truck photo for more of those (thanks Steve!)

MAKE Fire Truck

I finally got some good photos of the MAKE Fire Truck during setup for Maker Faire this weekend. Click on the photo below to see more!

It was purchased via ebay motors, so you can see all the detail about the truck here (the page takes a while to load).
