Hey, if fratboys and tailgaters are going to have motorized beer coolers, why not an ATV toolbox? (Although I think the terrain is probably less than all with this mod.)
I was thinking this was created for a usefull purpose such as forestry/logging, linemen, pipeline, etc… But the actual all-terrain-ness makes me think that it would be better to make the toolbox an all-terrain trailer behind the ATV with air filled tires on it with a wide wheelbase. Neat; yes. Creative; yes. Practical; no.
Even more practical would be an ATV with tool boxes fastened all over it like those utility pickups.
