Tritan A2DescriptionTritan A2.The 1985 Domino’s Pizza delivery car looks more like it was designed to shoot down invading alien spacecraft than to bring you a hot delicious pepperoni pie. But back in the ’80s, Domino’s founder Tom Monaghan ordered 10 Tritan A2 cars and customized them with warming ovens in the back to deliver pizzas around Ann Arbor, Michigan, where Domino’s is headquartered. Just a few survive today. The Tritan A2 was designed by engineers James Amick and his son Douglas. It’s similar to a series of other vehicles they designed with large arch-shaped rear wings. The wings were designed to capture crosswinds to help provide forward propulsion, like a sail, along with electric motors or gasoline engines. It’s unclear if this particular model, with its relatively modest rear wing, benefits appreciably from wind propulsion. Detailed Information
