Since it is chemically powered, but not able to move under it's own power, yet somehow is also a form of transport, I have to assume it's something that is towed.

I can only think caravan, but that would be larger than a pickup and would come in a selection of colours.

I'm out of questions, so I'm going to bed and I'll check again in the morning to see if the object has been revealed.

Hm...not a full recap (I'd like to post that between answer 20 and the final guess), but here are some big points:
chemically powered
doesn't move under its own power
transport for more than two people
no selection of colors
definitely can not buy a new one for under $15,000
between the size of a smart car and a full-size pickup

It seems very odd to me that something designed to transport people has no selection of colors, and I'm having trouble thinking of what fits all the criteria. My closest thoughts are some sort of car, (seems unlikely, unless it's highly specific) or an elevator (only possible if the 'no selection of colors' only applied to the outside of the thing...and elevators are rather monochromatic, as I'm guessing).

(not a numbered question since we are at the last possibility and it would be a shame to waste it on a hunch) I wonder if it is the Q of Es horse drawn carriage or something like that? Probably something unique and well known I expect.

Well I think that the carriage might be excluded based upon:

As to the second half.....?!?!?

The carriage is electronic? :huh:

A Popemobile, perhaps?

(that's just idle speculation; I'm not going to waste the last question on that, so I'm just bringing it up as a discussion point.)

A horse drawn hearse wouldn't come in a choice of colours, and it would be a form of transport unable to move under it's own power.

Santa's sleigh?

[QUOTE=Oddball;234735]A Popemobile, perhaps?[/QUOTE]There would have been no need of clarification on chemically powered.
[QUOTE=lavalamp;234761]A horse drawn hearse wouldn't come in a choice of colours, and it would be a form of transport unable to move under it's own power.[/QUOTE]The answer to question 6 would seem to eliminate that.
[QUOTE=bsquared;234779]Santa's sleigh?[/QUOTE]Answer to number 15 eliminated that one.

BTW, I was not trying to get tricky with a bizarre choice or something the I expected none of you to have knowledge of. To the best of my knowledge no one on thing forum is ignorant of this. Some of the details maybe.
