Which rover?

[quasarrgames]

I made two rovers, but i'm not sure which one to use for my upcoming Duna mission. Both are about the same in terms of battery life, weight, and torque.

I need you to help me decide!

Rover 1: It's two parts more than the other one, but i like its utilitarian-ness. Also, it's more durable.

 

Rover 2: Looks sleeker, like a rat rod.

If you see any design flaws or have any tips for improving them, please don't hesitate to tell me. 

otherwise, please vote!

Option 2, I'm a sucker for sleek and awe-inspiring rides.

I like no.1, seems more sturdy and stable than #2

I would like to see something on No.1 other than the white shell, like a cabin

there's a mk1 command pod behind the mk2 fuel tank

I understand that, but IMO rover 1 would look better if it had a crew cabin (like the mk 1 or 2 inline) sticking out of the top or so

Rat rod.

Rover 1 for SURE.

Rover 1 looks more like a rover that should be on a space mission. Rover 2 is a better option for Kerbin or Laythe. I don't think people realize it, but there's a reason windows on Dpacecraft are kept as small as possible. If they were made big like on planes or cars, they would create huge weak points in the pressure hull, making it easier for it to be breached.

TLDR: Although Rover 2 looks sleek and pretty, Rover 1 looks like it belongs on Duna.

Rover 2 looks like a helicopter cockpit on wheels. Rover 1 looks like something epic out of I Robot, with the addition of a large, handy cargo bay.

EDIT: I see it's a docking port. Replace it with a cargo bay and you'll have gold.
