Then again, when I was watching Predator I didn't think two members of its cast would become governors, either. So you never know.

Wow, that's a real CatDog. If it had a hatchback it would be even better. But it would have to have the truck suspension as well.

$2750 - that must just be the labor invested at $1.65 an hour, and parts are free.
That's the combustion chamber of the turbo shaft. It is supposed to be on fire. You just don't usually see it but the case and fairing fell off.

Can't be serious .... Some people like to have fun with Craigslist, and it doesn't cost anything .... and you get some notoriety.

$150 scrap by the pound minus $75 to haul it to Metco Recycling = net $75.

When a trailer park wants to see it go it's REALLY bad.  Most places would use it as a landmark:  "Go about a minute east and turn right at the catdog car.  We're the second lab on the left down from the one that blew up last week."

I have a vague memory of seeing that thing for sale a few years ago, in the same condition.  Anyone else see if before?

We had one of those Imperials when I was a kid.  I thought it looked big, but I don't remember it being THAT big.

Even if they're freewheeling, at least two rear wheels have to skid sideways in turns.

  Things like the half truck when up on blocks are considered status symbols in North Idaho,
  Almost as much as having a wife that's not a blood relative.

I get a kick out of how some folks use the word "invested" like they expect a return. I say to young carpenter "how much did those tattoos cost", young carpenter says "I've got $700 invested in these" proudly I might add.

Maybe the young carpenter does expect a return, related to cool factor and the resulting benefits from his social circle.

Yeah, come to think of it he did say he had a memerable time in the hay as one of the tattoos had his girlfriends name in it, later covered over I might add. Each to their own... My "investments"? 26 motorcycles over the years "invested" in my sanity. Works for me!

Ridiculous.

I think that thing's shown up over on Hooniverse.  There's usually something cool & always something goofy on there.
