  This is a weekly posting with GURPS vehicles (and the like) to the 
GURPSnet mailing list. I grant the permission for all non-commercial 
redistribution of my work, but I would like to know if you put it on 
a website or the like. With a slight delay, old vehicles appear

ArcoTech Grav Cart v1.0 (GURPS Traveller TL10)
  Copyright 2006 by Onno Meyer

  Even in the orderly environment of an arcology, contragrav flyers have 
their place. They can turn in extremely narrow quarters and move between 
different floors without lifts or ramps.
  The Grav Cart has open seats for one pilot and three passengers. It is 
small enough to navigate residential corridors or to weave between heavy
transport sleds in the main tunnels. The cart has dual engines and power 
packs for safety reasons - even one engine can take it up to 75 mph.
  The two power cells last for 13 hours at top speed.
