ABSTRACT:
The vehicle of the present invention has an ovular shape and is supported by four wheels which are arranged with one wheel in the forward position, one wheel in the rearward position, and two wheels at the lateral sides of the vehicle. A flexible bumper surrounds the vehicle and is rotatably mounted by bearing means to the vehicle so that the bumper can rotate with respect to the vehicle. The vehicle includes a folding shutter roof and seats which can fold up to form a bed for sleeping. The vehicle includes a tow bar which is retractable, and further includes means associated with the front wheel for minimizing the tendency of the vehicle to dip adjacent the forward end thereof whenever braking occurs.
