The wind-runner was a vehicle used by the Chubbits for traveling on their desert homeworld of Aridus. It resembled a wooden ship with four large wheels and two massive sails which it probably used to trap the wind.
In 0 ABY, Luke Skywalker, C-3PO, and an Imperial actor disguised as the Galactic Republic Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi used it to travel to Darth Vader's Iron Tower on the planet.
