Ths has been bugging me all day today.. I'm thinking of a bootleg/hack/clone of Moon Patrol that seemed to have slightly better graphics and your moon buggy actually had something like three sections to it so you had to jump over and clear the craters making sure that your third section also makes the jump.

I really need to remember the name of this game. I have Googled ad nauseam and can't come up with anything so my last desperate flail is to bring it to the collectvie minds of everyone here. hopefully someone else has played this.
 
At first I thought 'Silkworm' but that's just a one section look-alike jeep.

I took a look at gameplay video of Silkworm just to make sure... and no that's not it although thanks for the suggestion.

I should mention, I played this game *one* time only in the arcades in the late '80s and then never saw it again, if that helps.
 
You sure it wasn't just Moon Patrol, but under a different name? How about Moon Ranger?

Yes quite sure... and now that I'm thiking about it more, I'm also fairly certain that your moon buggy was green; if that helps some more.
 
misfit mame indicates there was a title called Sponge Patrol by Gatinho, but I don't have the roms so don't know what it looks like.
