2015 Tartan Prancer, The Affordable Family Truckster

It’s billed as the All-Star Albanian Automobile, and it’s the Griswold family’s ride in the new summer flick Vacation.

You remember the Griswolds, right? The family that starred in the popular National Lampoon Vacation comedy film series, with Chevy Chase playing the role as the patriarch? Well, they’re back, sort of.

Son Rusty Griswold is all grown up, and now he wants to take his own family on a road trip to visit what is America’s favourite family fun park, Walley World.

And to get there, the vehicle of choice is the 2015 Tartan Prancer, what the Albanian manufacturer calls “a perennial heavyweight in the Mid Range Family Mini Van Sedan Crossover segment.” Thanks to the Prancer’s sleek design, people won’t know if you’re coming or going, and it’s also equipped with what Tartan calls an Auto Adaptive Over Compensation Steering Differential. Patent pending.

It’s got three rows of seats for the whole family, dual battery-charging stations, a functional CB radio, door-mounted martini glass holders (on the outside), a detachable steering wheel, ashtrays and even a console-mounted water fountain for a fresh drink on the go.

Yes, quite a family vehicle for an affordable price of 300,000 lekë.

The movie Vacation, starring Ed Helms, Christina Applegate, Leslie Mann, Chevy Chase and Beverly D’Angelo, is in theatres and drive-ins now.
