This truck might look like your average pick-up, but inconspicuously attached to the truck’s pick-up is a General Electric J85 Jet Engine. Wouldn’t have even noticed unless I pointed it out, huh?

The jet engine boosts the trucks horse power up to a massive 7000 hp, allowing the truck to hit a max speed of 200 mph. Believe it or not, this monster is technically street legal.

If this thing can be street legal, so should a Boeing 747.

When the volume of a gas decreases at a maintained pressure, the temperature of the remaining gas falls. Such is the law the defines the concept behind the Jet Engine-powered Beer Cooler. Using a LPG cylinder and a jet engine to cool his favorite brew, the designer of the beer cooler is never without an icy cold one.

If you can get your hands on the beer pouring robot, you have the makings of a BBQ of epic proportions, and a side-note to the manliest of the bots. All we need now is a robot to properly later our ribs in sauce. — Andrew Dobrow
