sandcrawler
Dune-traversing vehicle
A sandcrawler is a large treaded vehicle used by Jawas in the Star Wars universe to traverse desert terrain and transport scavenged goods.
The word has entered general use for any massive, lumbering vehicle designed for harsh environments: The mining sandcrawler crept across the dunes.
Sometimes applied humorously to oversized recreational vehicles or trucks.
