As someone that has contemplated it about 340 of the last 365 days, allow me to speculate wildly.
Wife is hot, guy is a dork. Good chance wife's family has the money. Regardless a divorce won't be good for business so they keep it together for show. She spends her nights on the prowl for younger guys while he sleeps on the couch in the dealership because that's all he has left. But she finally found somebody she wants to settle down with and now he'll lose that too.
@Silvrt01: I've been Bill, twice. I'm so burned out if there's ever another relationship it will have a time limit and be a straight cash transaction. #carpocalypsenow
@Ralph Wiley Is Poised: I did qualify that I was speculating wildly. Maybe he could no longer live with hiding that he was gay and got infected by some tranny hooker in Tijuana. You know you've seen too much drama when you start making up back stories. #carpocalypsenow
@Maxichamp: To back up my point that these journalist types know nothing about cars, did anyone read the NYT Sunday Magazine language piece about how Cadillac has not built a decent car since the 60s? Clueless morons! #pickuptrucks
@skaycog: I had a friend who blew his brains out this summer. He was very well liked and respected, and his problems didn't seem any more severe than the average person's.
Some people can't see themselves they way other see them.
Toyota dealerships should print this article and put it on coffee tables at dealerships. + 1 also for the tongue in cheek digs on the NY Times and Chrysler. #pickuptrucks
"We take you live to the scene where insurgents calling themselves the Jalopean Radicals, have taken the grounds of Laguna Seca using early model Toyota pick up trucks, and are holding the weekend shift track workers hostage...." #pickuptrucks
@FrankGrimes: You know, I have a vague suspicion that it’s not unintentional from Toyota to have all their truck destined for certain markets marked with giant corporate logos on their tailgates. #pickuptrucks
@H. Mushman: "Speed limits have been abandoned in Jalopean strongholds. Several Toyota Camrys and Dodge Stratuses have been reportedly burned. The insurgency is reportedly led by a Walter Röhrl..." #pickuptrucks
@bzr: Does anyone remember the South Park episode where they kept saying "the Simpsons have already done that". I feel in the automotive world this applies to Top Gear. And as the video shows, "Top Gear has already done this." #needforspeed

Now that the limo variant has been done, I need to find a track-rat DeLorean with a Ford Eco-Boost V6 in the back. #limos
