    "Have an old Volvo with a faded paint job? ...it's perfect."


    That is correct, Matt.

    Dear God, sweet, sweet Baby Jesus,

    Why could you not have taken the Sham-Wow guy instead?

    Billy Mays, now with angel wings for faster Oxy-cleansing ability,

    Had so many things to offer his car geek disciples.

    Like an aluminum vagina that,

    Once you slip it over your Willy,

    It feels like a New Camaro SS, or a ZR1.

    Or a Tiddy Bear Cam that would record

    Heavenly women and their blessed mounds.

    Imagine your DVD/Nav screen showing you and your buds,

    Hours and hours of material to fantasize about

    Motorboating those babies!

    Anyhow, Please Lord, God, Baby Jesus, Sweet Baby Jesus, Lord,

    If you could find some way to whack the blasphemous,

    Evil, Prick Sham-Wow Guy,

    Forever and Ever,


    Amen.

    I hope all you Jalops are wearing Blue for Billy today.


    I am kind of sad, I was going to be Billy Mays for Halloween. Now I'm going to have to be The Ghost of Billy Mays.

    As a world class introvert I was always amazed at the guy. He was annoying as hell but it was still impressive. You know he could do that shit in his sleep.

    Matt, this is a fail. You should have titled this as the FIVE greatest Billy Mays car gadgets. And then for the remaining three, given us a "BUT WAIT! There's MORE! As an added bonus..."

    I miss him so badly. I bought some Mighty Putty to piece back together my broken heart yesterday, but it dissolved pretty quickly after initial application.


    If only I was trying to reattach the handle of a coffee mug.


    Sigh.

    @engineerd hates hydrogen leaks: A neighbor lady has a Camry and backed it down her driveway into another neighbor's Chevy pickup. It did $3000 damage to the Camry and not a scratch on the Chevy. She didn't appreciate it when I told her she should have bought American.
