In theory yes - but without the thumping or rattling. I'm sure D could pull it off in a nice way.

I do think the MkVIIs look neat with their interior:

I think that this fits DL nicely (retro), but not so sure about how it would fit in at WDW.

Would be nice to get some tunes on the Monorail.....

Like any art, some are crappy, some are really impressive. The pimp mobiles always seemed to be well beyond over the top in their implementation.

The last thing we need on the Monorails is underglow or glowing stripes. Know why? It's because where I'm from, vehicles with "racing stripes" that max out around 46mph (downhill) are called ricers.


Stupidity is not a handicap, stand elsewhere.

Not me. I always thought eh blue deltas looked awful.
Really? I never knew that they had different colors until recently. I guess little things don't catch my attention. Green, yellow, sky blue pink...why does it matter? I just use it to ride from one spot to another.
