This piece brings together the simplicity of a traditional covered Conestoga Wagon and the audacity of a Dragster Racing Car. Conestoga wagons were built in a time for traveling with goods for a long journey. Now we live in a world where Dragsters are built and consume close to 23 Gallons of fuel to complete a quarter mile run. Ever wonder how efficient the pioneers would have been with that kind of gas mileage?
