Would "sobject" be an acceptable compromise?

Since there are still 12 questions left I prefer a further question to searching the website for spurious vehicles.

Is the vehicle meant to transport humans (as opposed to cargo)?

0) This object is primarily mineral but contains animal and vegetable components.
1) Is it ffordian? Yes
2) Would it fit inside a standard breadbox? No
3) Is it a vehicle of some description? Yes
4) Is it Thursdays red, blue and green 356 Speedster? No
5) Does it have fewer than four wheels? sometimes, but usually No
6) motorised? usually, Yes
7) Is it seen only in one book? No (If you only like yes or no, don't read this bit. As far as I know none of the books it appears in are written by JFf)
8) Is it a surface vehicle (as opposed to space/air/underwater/underground/ preterdimensional)? Yes, the object is a surface vehicle.
9) Is the vehicle meant to transport humans (as opposed to cargo)?Yes

(It is a land vehicle, so no need for any seafaring diversions and it is road-using to avoid any tractor diversions. It is only fair to clear up some of the summaries. The vehicle is 4-wheeled if we discount the steering wheel and spare. I have seen many examples on bricks, so less than 4-wheeled. I will accept subject, object, sobject & ubject since spelling is very important to this set of questions. That is as big a hint as I can give just now)

A deliberate miss just for fun...

Is it this one?

I know, I know, pick me, pick me.

That's cheating - but go ahead anyway.

My grandparents used to have a F(f)ord(e) F(f)iesta. I would have to say that to fit five people in it, the three in the back seat have to be rather thin...

Oh, well, here's a new one:

Is it bigger than a breadbox?

(ah, I feel much better now, maybe things are getting back to normal?) (whatever normal is?!)

With that question, things must definitely be getting back to normal (at least normal for the Fforum). Thanks, VM!
