Seriously? What the hell does this have to do with Jalopnik? The only automotive related theme here is that George Zimmerman was in a truck, and got out to follow Travon Martin. The events that followed are highly contested, and again, have zero to do with anything Jalopnik-like.

And after the incident... (Edit: go to 57 seconds)

Like you, the SVX was a bit of a curiosity for me too... so I bought one back in February for $500. The transmission only had 3rd gear and the car looked like it had seen better days - the paint was messed up, the interior was worse, no radio, multiple electronic parts were only half working, and mismatched tires (a

Every special occasion (holiday, birthday, stars aligning, etc) I always felt the "need" to get something nice for my girlfriend, namely everything

But - unlike a lightsaber - once you build/rebuild one, you'll never want to do it again! Of course, mine was an old Quadrajet... you can do a Google search to find out just how much of a pain they were if you didn't know what you were doing!

Reminds me of an F-117 canopy

Love it or hate it (I'm sure someone else has already mentioned it), I have to nominate Rusty Slammington

Nononononononono, THIS is how a rotary engine works:

Anybody who ever watched Dukes of Hazzard as a kid knew exactly how often "dipstick" got interchanged with "idiot"

A real commercial? Sadly, yes. First heard about it from a local morning radio show; and no jokes were spared about it. I think that's why I thought to post it here - one of the jokes was "really? do you see her teeth? do you really want that as advertisement?"

For some strange reason, this was the first thing I thought of (and it's almost just as bad!)
