According to the Onion. It hits close to home, but in a funny way.

Might be a repost:

That's actually how the Hummer H2 was conceived.

I don't understand. Was there a joke there?

The yellow car was cool. I bet it goes really fast too.

cute. mildly funny, and it probably does capture what most outsiders believe about car guys. There may be some who think that way, but I think GRMers are a little different with our focus on DIY, weird swaps, and anything that is cheap, old and floggable. Others may spend time thinking about the latest offering from Ferrari, most GRMers are more interested in how this was done

And about 300% too long to be funny. I got the joke and it was a good one... The first half dozen times. Not up to usual Onion standards.
