Iowahawk nominates himself:
As such, I realize the industry is not suffering from a lack of law professors — it is suffering from a lack of imagination. They gave us cup holders and electric seat warmers when we wanted angel fur and bubble tops. They pushed micro-clown cars and hybrids when the market was rife for chromed 8-deuce Chrysler Hemis. Well, Bucko, all that outmoded thinking is going to end during the reign of Czar Dave. Saving the American auto industry is going to be a big job, but I won’t be doing it alone. I have already appointed my own shadow Council of Automotive Advisors, a select group of successful auto manufacturers whose qualifications appear after the jump. Many are close personal friends of mine, and I can attest to their patriotism, integrity, ingenuity, and wonderful lack of law degrees.
Why not? We could do worse. And almost certainly will.
And as you can see, his advisory council is without peer. I particularly like the discreet tasteful town car to get him to important meetings in our nation’s capital.
Some real beauties there, but the rocket powered moped has to be the winner for this site.
No the Galaxie 500 Turbonique is the winner, hands down.
I’m partial to the crude-oil-powered F-250, though finding an oil well in my neighborhood could be a challenge.
Looks like a reunion for the cast (cars, dudes and babes) of The Road Warrior.
Explain to me one thing. The world has just gone to heck with some kind of nuclear or bioweapon war, the only people left are some goofy Aussies in some remote part of the Nullarbor Plain, there are no more oil wells and oil refinaries so the only way to operate a motor vehicle is with precious supplies of stored gasoline, so how come everyone is driving around in these outlandish rigs with “blown” eight-cylinder engines and nitrous oxide boost.
You would think that a better “road warrior” fighting element would be a pair of guys on a moped, one guy steering and the other guy operating an RPG launch tube. What I am suggesting is not so outlandish for an energy-conserving “technical” — the Iranians used such units in the Iran-Iraq war.
No kidding. I’m sure a US version would have that along with decked out hybrids and clean burning public transport. There would be a scene where our hero has to chose between a Prius and a hummer. He, of course, makes the right choice with a dismissive insult to the hummer. The audience cheers wildly.
Horses.
Horses.
That would be cruelty to animals. And we know that even bestial, subhuman, post-apocalyptic types only kick the dog once or twice in a movie.
