Default Hot Car for Pete & Allan

You've all seen how Pete and Allan continually one-up us all with photos of some of the most desirable, hottest race and road cars ever built. But a bit after 6:00 AM Friday morning my chance to forever one-up them presented itself as I walked to work. Ladies & gentlemen, I give you the Oscar Mayer Weinermobile!

Pete and Allan -- You’ll never top this! Ha!

Stuart, what a brilliant photograph. Truly the most bizarre thing I have seen in a long time. Looks like a giant orange turd laid on top of a yellow E-type.

Stuart, great photo! You certainly have one upped them. I remember being terrified one afternoon as a child in Chicago as this turned a corner and headed toward me ...the front view is menacing.

Big & Jonathan -

Thank you. In NYC we always try to take our largest orange turds, polish them, name them, and then drive them to a neighboring state for burrial.

Default good to see a Weinermobile

I haven't seen one in years
these used to be fairly common sites & it looks like the new model has been a bit streamlined
I guess folks on the other side of the pond aren't all that used to seeing these
fun capture

Arthur -

Thank you. The reception of this little joke has been so positive that I think I'll add it to one of the NYC pages on our site, titled, "Midtown Street parking," or some such.

Now all of a sudden I'm hungry again.



Thanks.

Stuart,

With an appendage like that, is it a 'stick-shift' or automatic? Could even count as a high sided vehicle.

Best wishes,

Charlie

Allan & Charlie -

Between yours and Big Louis's comments we seem to have a wide range of organic interpretations. It's clear we should be careful not to confuse them.
