The Patty Wagon.
The Patty Wagon is a vehicle that is shaped like a Krabby Patty, and it is shown to be built with layers of ingredients like a real Krabby Patty. It is said by SpongeBob that Mr. Krabs uses it for promotional reasons.
History
This appeared in The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, where SpongeBob and Patrick rode it to Shell city. It was stolen as they crossed the country line. It was then brought to the Thug Tug (a rough biker bar), in which SpongeBob and Patrick were able to get back. They then rode it through the abyss. After they landed on the road after a jump while dodging the fake ice-cream vendor, they separated from the Patty Wagon, which was then eaten by another fish, then that fish was eaten by a larger fish. It is presumed lost.
Features
Almost every part of the car is designed to be food or food related. The car has:
- "Sesame Seed finish"
- "Grilled Leather Interior"
- "Steel-belted Pickles" (tires)
- "Fuel-Injected french fryer with dual overhead grease traps"
- The Shifter is shaped like a Soda Drink.
- The Accelerator is a Fork.
- The Brake is a Spoon.
- The Key is a Spatula.
- The only un-food realated part of the Patty Wagon is the KK flag that is on the back of the wagon.
- The Plate and the Headlamps on the front.
Trivia
- Both Patrick and SpongeBob know how to drive the Patty Wagon.
- The Patty Wagon was eaten by a frogfish, but in the game, Mindy can get it back by having SpongeBob give her 50 G.G. Tokens, which means Mindy does have Mermaid Magic.
- The plate on the Patty Wagon says "2-GO".
- According to SpongeBob, he doesn't need a liscence to drive it
- The ingredients on the Patty Wagon are not connected to each other (seen when SpongeBob and Patrick bashed the Wall of the KK2 and the ingredients/parts fall down to each other). It is Unknown how the PW works.
- It was revealed that the patty wagon has a manual transmission. SpongeBob is seen making an "S" like shifing maneuver seemingly shifting from reverse to first. Also, while SpongeBob's driving away from the Thug Tug we can see a 3rd pedal, most likely a clutch. Both these features are exclusive to manuals.
- Also the fact that it runs on fry oil probably means it's a compression-ignition (Diesel) set up. As Diesel Fuel isn't volitile enough to burn in a spark-ignition (Petrol/Gasoline) engine
- This is a particularly interesting joke on SpongeBob's driving skills as he is able to drive a vehicle (that's not a boat) with a manual transmission (which takes significantly more cordination to drive) on city and country roads while failing miserably driving an (presumably) automatic on a closed course
- Mr. Krabs probably chose a vehicle to run on fry oil because he is extremely cheap (as the fuel is waste)
- It is likely all KK eployees know the shift pattern by heart (there are roughly a dozen types of shift patters on manual transmitions) as SpongeBob was able to (presumably) shift effortlessly despite there being a customized shift knob. Patrick probably watched SpongeBob shift (atleast enough to know where reverse and first are) as he was seen backing up and driving foward to save SpongeBob. It could also be it's a common shift pattern like:{| border="0" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1" class="article-table article-table-selected" style="height: 50px; width: 200px;"

- There is a Lego Patty Wagon in the set "Krusty Krab Adventures".
