CLAMULA. A doodle while I was bored at a biz meeting years ago. Might put it in my game. Boss or grunt?
Trick question. It’s an ancient.

The truck Tesla should have made.
This dumb joke came to me and I was compelled since the original Enterprise was one of the 1st things I made in 3D (mid 80's). I googled Star Truck and nothing close came up. So here you go (w/music by me).
