[VHFcontesting] Why don't they make...?

I'm going to change the subject somewhat and still stay on the Rover topic.
My current "why don't they make?" concerns a variant of the 706G or 100D 
that would include 222, 902, and 1296?  When I operate Rover I have the 
"easy" bands, 2m, 6m, and 432 but could use a way to get on a few more 
bands.  I realize the potential market would be just a small fraction of the 
ham group as a whole, but I'd rather bite the bullet for one expensive rig 
than buy 3 transverters plus assorted extras. Mainly to save room in my 
already cramped truck.
A rig like this plus a conventional rig would allow 6 bands with only 2 
rigs.
To my thinking, this would be a Rover's dream set-up.
Oh well, I'll go back to dreaming.
