You could fit a PMV on the roof rack with the help of a friendly troll to get it up and down.

What about the Ford-Canada Buffalo? It's an RV, so it has living amenities (Middle quality) and it's big. Not sure if you could fit a whole car in it, but motorcycles and drones should be possible.
  Real-world RVs can fit actual cars into storage compartments.  Some real-life examples:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s50qsu9wKlg (aftermarket job, built from an old city bus, with space for a whole Jeep / Landrover thing in the back!)

So yeah, I woudl say a Large Landing Rack shoudl be able to handle a PMV (which is going to be motorcycle sized or less).

Alternately, "Special Machinery (Garage)" should let you park a very small car (like a Honda Spirit) in the back of an RV or bus.

Those are all definitely awesome...

Personally, I'd say you get automated doors with the Large Landing Rack and a manual hatch (like in the last one) with Special Machinery. That's just me, though.

Nice links there Pax!

If you did a city bus conversion I'd even say you could get a mid-size car in one. It would be tight but doable, but not a fast load up..... Like that last vid.

And an external speaker system that plays the Knight Rider theme whenever you deploy or park the car.  ;D

Call me odd, but you know what I felt was missing?

 An illustration/picture of the venerable Chrysler-Nissan Patrol-1.  I've been running from the damned things for years and have no bloody idea what they look like.

Thanks to Used Car Lot, everything I thought was missing is back! Now just for it to be added to Hero Lab!

Used car Lot does fill in a LOT of gaps.  I don't think it covers everything, though.  :)

No, it doesn't...but it gave me back the Eurovan, the 4201, the Blitzen 2050, Phaeton, and Praerie Cat.
Now, just need those in Hero lab, and I will be happy!

Now just give me the Medusa, Bumblebee, and Spider drones, and I'll be happy.

Thank you. Blue was the new thing going when I got them, so I figured what the hell?
