Anybody else see this? I spotted it in the parking lot of the Krispy Kreme in downtown Raleigh. When the driver hopped back in and drove down person street it looked like it was a decent ride!

For your viewing pleasure. Happy Friday!

Puts a whole 'nother perspective on "peeling out."

I know there's a tendency sometimes for cars to function in part as phallic symbols, but this is ridiculous!

It does have some a-peel, I suppose. Seriously, that would be pretty funny to see randomly. I once saw the Oscar Meyer Weinermobile driving down I-95 and was pretty amused.

Nice! Love those seats.

We have seen the Oscar Myer Weinmobile several times - once on I40 around the time we moved here and again at the state fair this year and one or two other times. kinda strange how much we've seen it, actually!

Anybody remember way back in the day when they used to do an airshow at RDU and you could walk right out onto the tarmac? They usually had the Weinermobile and other strangely shaped cars there as part of the entertainment.

I wonder how it's aerodynamic drag is? Probably pretty slippery.
I bet it gets good mileage too. 3 scoops of ice cream per mile?
