well one ride is over, and a new one has started,
Lol nice Disney references!
Sadly, I can’t seem to guess a real version of Eliza. She seems to be some mix between a combine harvester and a mining auger of some sort. And the 6x6 she has sounds like a six wheeled, windshielded version of a Stryker APC.
And as for Ping; is it accurate to guess that he is like the Synths, from Fo4?

So, Eliza and her rover is actually a few references to the same movie all wrapped up in one! The movie in question is a highly underrated movie called Moon, that takes place where else, but on the moon. She's supposed to be the same design as the helium-3 harvesters in the film, while her rover is the same as in the movie as well. Eliza herself is based off Gerty, the machine intelligence of the moonbase in the movie.
Ping however, isn't so much a reference really, at least not to any one particular machine. The chip in his head however, as I'd said before, is a reference though!
And hey, as always, I'm glad you enjoyed the chapter!

Ah yeah I never would’ve guessed those vehicles as they are unique to that movie lol
And as for Ping...he could also be a Disney reference. His name is also Mulan’s cover name for when she joined the Chinese Imperial Army to fight the Huns.
Bering in mind that in the Fallout games IIRC it was USA vs China. Equestria was USA and the Zebra nation was China for the FoE version. Interesting concept yeah?

I mean, I hadn't intended for it to be that way, but yeah, I hadn't thought of that. It does match up pretty well!
Ouroboros. The snake that chases its own tail. I just made the connection.
So, Night better not let Ping take any drugs. The last thing we need is a high ping. Also, where's his brother, Pong?
"My CPU is a neural net processor. A learning computer."
I can't help but imagine the excursion vehicle as a Sunderer from PlanetSide 2, even though I'm certain that isn't it.
Yeah, I really don't want them to give the train to Mr. Wizard. That won't go well for anyone.
Piqued is the word you wanted here. Easy and fairly common mistake to make though.
Oh gods the Moon references I love it

It really is quite the underrated film, and I love leaning more into the robotics and machine side of Fallout/FoE lore. I'm glad you enjoyed the reference, and I hope you've been enjoying the story!
