Many, many moons ago my band practiced next to a garage filled with speed freaks. Three dudes, who shall remain nameless, sat inside all day, every day, chain smoking, blowing lines and building stuff. One day I showed up for practice and my formerly 600 watt bass amp now pumped out 6,000 watts. Sure, it sounded like a lawnmower attacking a raccoon, but that wasn't necessarily bad for my band's sound. They also made a remote control ashtray out of zip-line toys and last I heard they were working on a "force field." Then the DEA showed up and raided the hell out of the garage and there was some sort of stabbing in Florida. But pay no mind. Even if those boys had freebased an entire '56 Harley gas tank full of Modesto's finest, they would have never been able to top this masterpiece.

Now That's Class: 6-Wheeled Olds Toronado Limowagon!
Commenter ECNIV sent in these photos last week and I totally spaced on their presence in my inbox, thanks to the flurry of emails I received in the aftermath of the Murilee Is A Man post. But his fine limo-ized Toronado needs to be shared with the world, because it stands for all that is good and true and right about this country.More »
