Jeff Stembel: (...) It looks like I qualify for the "Darth Vader" title. My minifigs drive ten-wide (and eight, six, four, and two wide).

(...) What about 3, 5, and 7 wide? I'd like to see how others solve the problem of odd-width cars. (Actually, I've only used 5 wide for the bed of a pick-up truck, and 7 wide for my AT-ST, but I think other vehicles would be interesting (3 wide golf (...)

Lego reuses good ideas. The Maersk set sleeper cab is also 5 wide. Also, I believe one of my favorite tow trucks has a 5 wide equipment bed: (URL) recall getting a bunch of these when S@H was blowing them out in early 1998. Aspiring builders of 5 (...)
