The Mark Six Smoothride was a model of Smoothride hoverbus. It was known throughout the galaxy for its quality and speed abilities. Okadiah Garson, an inhabitant of the planet Gorse, owned one such bus, though it was so old that its famous capabilities were severely diminished. Okadiah allowed his friend, Kanan Jarrus, to use his Smoothride to carry miners from the Moonglow facility the bars and cantinas in the area known as the Pits.
