You heard me right. Halo 3 should introduce a possible new human vehicle thats smaller, faster, and lighter then the warthog....and its nickname should be the hedgehog (you got a better name, post it).
The Hedgehog would be a one person vehicle approx the size of a Dune Buggy. In fact, its chasis would be based off a dune buggy. This would prevent tipovers (the main problem with the Mongoose ATV) since the base would be much wider.
It would feature a tradition dune buggy cockpit (with side armor rather then open) with two submachine guns mounted above where the driver sits that are controlled by the driver. It'll feature approx the same amount of armor as the ghost/spectre.
it could also be converted into a two person vehicle with a turret mounted in the back.
The gunner would be located facing backwards in a sitting position and in control of a mini gauss cannon, a full size mounted turret, or a new weapon that can turn 180 (so only left and right... can't face fowards). the gunner would have a small shield mounted behind him to protect his head, since that would be the only part of his body above the frame of the vehicle (this shield would be integrated into the vehcile to be aerodynamic). The shield makes up for the fact that the gunner can't turn 360 degrees
For enhanced gameplay/ tactics and fun, it will feature a boost system.. i'd say its NOS, but the warthog runs on hydrogen fuel-cell electric motors, so lets just say its got a flux capacitor (yes, I know, its from back to the future, but capacitors deliver massive bursts of electric charge in a few seconds... alright, lets call it an UltraCapacitor, UltraCap for short) that gains energy from regenrative braking, so you can give it a temprary boost of speed (unlike the shee and ghost which have unlimited boost). The boost will need to be used for jumps on certain campaign missions as well as MP levels, as well as tactics, such as avoiding rockets, and make up for the vehicles small amount of armor.
and for fun, it could be painted electic blue, and turn gold when you collect enough rings and emeralds... jk!
