InitialDave posted:Maybe the promo cars are run by an agency of some kind who do lots of different brands. Exactly. It was a local promotion company that did all sorts of live events. They currently have a fleet of H2 Hummers with various drinks emblazoned on them. I did a few events with him and they gave me so much free poo poo. Monster had an energy shot a few years ago and after an event where we gave them away he let me take about 200 of them home since we were supposed to give all of them away.

Years ago on these forums someone posted a series of images of a car they found that had been adorned with logos printed off and taped to the car along with a coffee tin slid over the exhaust.

 Some more car pictures:  There were two more behind that guy also with student driver signs. I'm wondering if they just didn't have any wide load signs so put those on because they were at least yellow? Or maybe it was an actual convoy of student truck drivers.  For some reason that kind of damage and repair job looks almost natural on that car.

That's because the cube was never symmetrical to begin with.  I've always loved the look of the cube, but I heard it's terrible car underneath the neat looking body.

If it looks bad from one side I don't loving want it, there are plenty of cars that look great from either side because they aren't vast swathes of lopsided plastic. (I'll stop bitching now)

That thing has all the bells and whistles for offroading too and he hasn't taken it yet (he's had it for like 2 years) as far as I know Wrong thread, if they aren't actually student drivers. If I had a CDL license that'd stay on my truck

Saw the Weinermobile in the expo hall of the hotel I was working at a while ago. The expo team finished setting up for the day and we climbed all over it. Sadly, it was locked.

You're missing that there are six total wheels on the thing, and one is on the tailgate.

Are his front rear inner fender liners (Did I do that right? The front set of rear wheels, not present) his fuel tanks? That can't be good for suspension articulation.

That thing is either one of the biggest trolls ever, advertisement for some kind of wrecker or the owner is seriously mentally ill. I'm leaning toward the latter. Part of me hopes it had / is going to have dual duallies. Good luck turning at intersections.

The Bozuko craze, or whatever they call it in Japan, ends up creating some of the weirdest looking automobiles I've ever seen. I kind of like them more then a stanced out civic. At least they are creative and have absolutely no illusions that they are making their cars faster or more furious.
