This is the first (surface) vehicle you see after you land in Antarctica. Kress is a company that mostly produces major mining vehicles like coal-haulers, but their basic design also can carry a red box that you can fill with scientists for shipment to McMurdo Station. The inside looks a little like the gate waiting area at an airport put together by a self-taught handyman. It is comfortable to ride in, but you can’t see out when you are sitting down. It is very slow. And the way from Pegasus field is very long (at least it feels like it....did I mention it is slow?).
