      Cybermation does make a nice "Syncro-Drive" (tm) robot.  They offer
a video of their robot, which is a heavy, solid machine.  Their video shows
it towing a truck.  Their "Synchro-Drive" is done with bevel gears and 
concentric shafts; no wimpy belts like the RWI guys.  They also offer some
useful electronics, such as two-way radio links, megahertz-frequency
high-resolution ultrasonic rangefinders, and battery chargers.

      Expensive, but looks like it would hold up well.
