Separate rear wheels of the pair are located on either lateral side of the chassis in the central plane. One or more motors are provided and coupled with the rear wheels to selectively drive the rear wheels at least simultaneously in either linear direction, forward or rearward, or simultaneously in opposite linear directions. A support member shaped like a wing is selectively positionable on the chassis and can be fixed in any of at least three different positions, a first position juxtaposed to the chassis, a second position extending generally vertically from the chassis permitting the vehicle to be stably supported upright on the support member and pair of rear wheels with the front wheels above the rear wheels and a third position extending to the rear of the rear wheels preventing the vehicle from being stably supported on only the…
