1. That thing looks post-apocalyptic.
What an absurd vehicle to have sitting in your driveway.

2. And they wonder why they are losing buckets of money and Toyota is taking over
I bet they spend hours in boardrooms contemplating this. :banghead:

13. I am a Toyota owner myself but they
are guilty of making their vehicles larger too. Compare the Camery's of today to the ones a few years ago. They have also made the Tacoma, Tundra, Rav 4, Corolla etc. right on down the line larger. I don't get it the higher gas prices go all the manufacturers foreign and domestic are making their vehicles bigger and the American people buy them. I think the only thing that will stop them is if the gas goes to $5.00 or more per gallon.

3. Can't wait to see the cell-phone jockey try to park one.
Or better yet...back one OUT of a parking spot.

Hope you've got good damn insurance, fucker.

11. Isn't there supposed to be
a medium range nuclear missile or battleship size cannon attached to it somewhere?

GOOD LORD!!! Aren't the Hummers bad enough!! They have to come out with this thing!

Question: You're an American automobile manufacturer. You are being outproduced, outmaneuvered, outsold, and out-innovated by foreign competitors. Your answer has been to put out vehicles that make the Cadillac El Dorado look like a "Hot Wheels" toy. A move that does not seem to make zero sense given that petroleum resources are becoming harder to find and there is increased demand from certain developing countries which is in turn driving gasoline prices up into orbit. OR you put out cars that guzzle more gas than beer gets guzzled at some frat party. Yeah, you've putting some effort into those(What are they called again?)...Oh yes...hybrid vehicles! However, the competition has got several years jump on you. You also spend millions lobbying the Congress of your federal govt. to prevent any sort of fuel efficiency standards from becoming law. Money that could probably be used for R&D, but heck, every big company of similar size does it. And then there's this pesky Global Climate Change/Greenhouse Gases thing-we'll let the P.R. boys handle that one. Well you're also facing an economy that appears to stagnating and quite likely going into recession. Not only that you've moved your manufacturing to Mexico to take advantage of lower labor costs and not have to deal with those pesky unions but you don't pay them enough so that they can afford to buy the cars you make anyway.
WHAT DO YOU DO?

Answer:
Step 1-Find a reeeallly sharp knife.
Step 2-Place the sharp edge of the blade on either side of your throat. Left or right, it does not matter. End result will be the same.
Step 3. Apply pressure to blade and run the blade down and across throat effectively severing the artery that feeds the brain.
Step 4. Allow blood to gush out unimpeded.
Step 5. Loose consciousness in seconds and die shortly thereafter
SEE! ALL DONE!!

12. This Ford is also very effective at screwing up the climate
It's not the object itself, it's how the object is used

14. Heh
Edited on Fri Feb-08-08 10:20 AM by sleebarker
whenever a huge-ass car of some sort flies by me doing 20 over the speed limit, I hold two fingers up very close together and hope they get the message that their penis is really small.

Actually I do that no matter what the size of the car, because anyone who drives like that is compensating for something.

16. A train horn?
Edited on Fri Feb-08-08 10:27 AM by DS1
Drivers using that to honk people to pick people up at home should be dragged out and shot.

17. Nobody's dick is that small
Now, on the other hand...if this particular penis extension had a body made from half-inch armor plate and windows made from 2" Lexan, it'd make a decent MRAP. The Cat engine in it would move it pretty well.

18. It says "Work Solutions" behind it on the wall
OK, I can see it as utility vehicle.

But for Bob and Suzy Homemaker who are tooling around between the country club and back... Don't be ridiculous.
