re: Air bags.
It looks as though the solar panels would clear the partially deflated air bags:
However, I can see their concern. Have the airbags deflated enough for the tires to squish them 'flat' down to ground level? It's hard to tell. A partially filled airbag could still give friction to the tires and in some cases could make it harder to 'go over' than solid rocks (duh :)
It looks to me like it could make it though (gasp). Maybe by the time they have their travel maps drawn...
