London, Mar 6 : The world''s heaviest man can''t walk, but he will be able to go for a ride in his new 1989 Chevrolet Astrovan, which has been outfitted to support his record-breaking weight.
Manuel Uribe said that the vehicle would give him mobility after more than six years confined to his bed.
Uribe earned the Guinness World Record as the world''s heaviest man in 2006, when he weighed 1,230 pounds (560 kilograms.)
He claims to have since shed more than 500 pounds.
Uribe, known as Meme to friends, said his new ride would be called the `Meme-Mobile'.
"My friends call it the Meme-Mobile, just like the Batmobile," the Telegraph quoted him, as saying.
