    I particularly enjoy 15. I tend to do that in the driveway when we have a foot of snow overnight, and it doesn't get plowed until noonish (I work at 8, of course).

    As a fan of Team Eyesore racing from LeMons I see nothing wrong with #3.

    #4 & #12 - what the...? Is there an epidemic of mini-sinkholes stalking the planet all of a sudden?

    #8 - That's what Tony Hawk gets for taking that dare: "Yeah, but I'll bet you can't stand on top of a CAR & make it do a kickturn!"

    If I were the restaurant owner in #7 I'd keep that truck there and rename the place "Dakota Grill."

    I really like #3. The old fella with the walker has to be thinking something along the lines of:

    @zukes-of-hazzard:

    Agreed.

    There was a book, not coffee table-sized, but it was one of the top 30 or 50 worst cars.

    I neglected to buy it, unfortunately, 'cause it was at a Half Price Bookstore, they had a few, and they'd have made excellent gifts for a couple of people I know.

    Plus, the humor was truly great.

    Un/under-employment is not fun.

    Based on the above gallery, drivers of trucks/vans/buses/SUVs are most likely to be involved in an TWBO incident (50%) and water should also be avoided (42%).

    Therefore, it would be smart to avoid driving trucks/vans/buses/SUVs anywhere near water. Unless you're looking to get yourself on the internet.

    I think TBRO, but a new windshield is definitely in order. It's also likely that the inside of the car will have to be shoveled out.
