Juan Ponce de León should’ve accessorised. Apparently all you need to achieve eternal youth is a bit of chromed bumper.
How did I come to this realization?
On the ride to work. I’m following a we’re-too-cool-for-a-minivan Chevrolet Trail Blazer decked out with what looked to be either an inline 6 engine (?) or a Eddie Bower package (too many dead bugs on the windshield) when I noticed it has a horrificly chromed skull attached to the trailer hitch.
Now, I’m all for skulls as decoration. Czechs can do wonderful things with nothing but a few skulls (okay, maybe not a few).
But throwing one on your newly minted “I’m a mom” mobile so that you’ll still rock is a bit of a stretch. This travesty of design wouldn’t look good on a boss GTO.
And do you really need a huge 8 cylinder engine to haul your weight around? If so, think of changing your diet and getting something a little safer for the kids.
Maybe one that gets more than an 18mpg average.
Just a thought.
