There have been a few threads in the past, but no-one seems to have completed such a project (other than the Hyperrocket made by an auto engineer). Does anyone have an idea why?

I'm thinking of mating the rear 2/3 of a scooter with the front of an ATV . . .

It seems reasonable, and could be very fuel efficient transportation - a bit like the Elio, but a good bit smaller (maybe 96" length, less than 36" height, much lighter, etc., but still passenger possible).

Any thoughts are welcome.
