1991, bright colors, but with a repaint job these vehicles aren't that bad. Battle Copters not included.
Let us know which vehicle you like best and please explain why!

Ice Sabre. Not bad, and certainly not compared to the rest of the bizarro stuff.

What an awful year for vehicles. I can't say much more than that.

Ice Sabre - The only thing even closely resembling a decent vehicle in this group, so it gets my vote. Still, for as large as it is, it can't hold a candle to the Snow Wolf.

Paralyzer - Ugly orange tank that can "tiptoe" on its treads.

Night Vulture's Glider - Not really a vehicle in my books, I'd only want one of these for the figure.

Sky Creeper's Glider - Same as above.

Septic Tank - Almost want to vote for this, only because it has become a legend over time for being so bad.

most of these were so bad ,.. Ice saber lamost wins by default.

However, I own 3 Ice sabers,.. and I have to say, they plastic doesnt hold up over time... the vehicle is falling apart, and replacement parts are almost impossible to find.

Night Vulture's glider for the same reason I voted for SKymate's glider. These things are still fun.

Gliders.

Night Vulture is a better figure, so his gets the nod.

Okay look at 1985 and look at 1991 and you have to ask HOW in five years could the toys devolve into this crap? How could a designer present any of this crap to a planning meeting without being laughed out the room.

What was going on at Hasbro? I can't imagine that it was a completly new team of kids from the copy room put in the 80's designers place. Did crack just reach Pawtucket in 1990? It's like they replaced the GI Joe staff with the beach-toy design staff from Ja-Ru.

Absolutely NONE!

Now if you had the mail-in reissue Ferret on the list, I'm sure it would win.

Ice Sabre.
Grey instead of the orange and it's OK!

None of these are particularly great, but I went with the Paralyzer. The Ice Sabre is better from an aesthetic perspective, but it's total PHAIL because it is so fragile. The side turrets broke on two of my Sabres without any assistance or pressure.
