This thing is a disaster.  The concept is marvelous, but it’s a little bit to similar to banging a fat chick.  The air car has no gas costs.  A fat chick; you don’t have to buy her any drinks.  The air car looks like it might be fun to drive.  Fat chicks are generally a lot of fun to have sex with.  The air car is blocky, horrendous on the eyes, and will get you laughed at by all your friends.  I won’t make the obvious parrallel to a woman of larger carriage to spare feelings, but you get what I’m driving at here.  Pardon the pun.  It looks like the thing might actually need a little gas here and there, but for the most part yer cruising around on compressed air.  Yahoo finance has the ugly ass details:

The air car can tool along at a top speed of 35 mph for some 60 miles or so on a tank of compressed air, a sufficient distance for 80% of consumers to commute to work and back and complete daily choresOn highways, the CAV can cruise at interstate speeds for nearly 800 miles with a small motor that compresses outside air to keep the tank filled. The motor isn’t finicky about fuel. It will burn gasoline or diesel as well as biodiesel, ethanol or vegetable oil.

They gotta put a lot of financial lipstick on this pig to get me to drive it.  First of all, the fucking car costs 20,000 dollars.  It’s a third of the size of my car, which cost me 20,000 dollars.  That’s not attractive.  Second of all, it sounds like you are still going to have to buy SOMETHING to make this car run.  Be it gasoline or Mug rootbeer, I dont know.  You still are going to have fork over some cash to keep this air car fueled.  The main issue I have is you’re going to have to pull a Death Race to keep this thing on the road.  You’re going to have to attach machine guns and spikes and roll bars to this tinker toy piece of shit to keep from getting run off the road every five seconds.  That being said, I think even Jason Statham would have trouble making this car look manly.

Jalopnik is a cool car blog. When they compile a list of sweet rides that show up in video games, they become even cooler. I’m a little upset that the Junker from Gears of War did not make the list or the Warthog from Halo. Perhapse a list of the best ATV’s or trucks should be compiled as well. Maybe people can start the list by commenting on THIS post on The Fukerton. If we get enough ideas, I will post the results on Monday and give the appropriate contibutors credit. Have at it.

Well, it’s kind of back.  And don’t punch your wife; just shake the shit out of her.  Marti from VIP Garage in Sterling, VA sends this story over to The Fukerton.  The 2010 Pontiac G8STExt seems to be the heir to the throne of the swingingest dickest car/truck of all time.  Who wouldn’t want one of these things and can of Budweiser to drive to church in? Jalopnik has some pictures that tightened up the front of my pants.

Is this a redneck thing?  A car that’s also a truck or a truck that’s also a car???  I say NO!  Am I gay if I want a chick that ALSO as a set of balls and a penis?  Well, maybe, but we’re not here to talk about that!  I want  a set of longhorns on the front of my Caddy!  I want to shoot flaming arrows at Roscoe and Enis while hanging out the window of my Dodge! In my humble opinion, THIS CAR BRINGS ME THAT MUCH CLOSER TO MAKING THESE DREAMS REALITY. 

*Raises 2 X 4 and tugs on his blue speedo* HOOOOOOOO!

Autoblog.com has some interesting shit. Looks like the new Corvette is going to appear in Transformers 2.  Maybe TWO Corvettes.  It’s actually the only time I would consider looking foward to my midlife crisis. If the Vette I bought when I turned 45 turned into a big fucking robot with machine guns, I wouldn’t think it was so lame. 

There seems to be no confirmation on whether the thing is an Autobot or a Decipticon,  either way it looks like the Camero is in good company.  I’m sure GM botched this shit too. The car won’t even be availible till 2012 I’m sure.  You STILL can’t buy Bumblebee.  Why would you want people to be able to buy it when the biggest movie on the planet comes out?  AMC would never fall into that trap.  Gremlens and Pacers for everyone!!
