Oscar Meyer Wienermobile replica owner regrets purchase, selling it on Craigslist

Buying a novelty car to use as a “daily driver” is like a non-Juggalo going to The Gathering of The Juggalos-- it sounds like a fun idea at first, but if you actually try it you’ll realize you’ve gotten yourself into a nightmare.

It appears to be underneath a giant fiberglass wiener.

While a hilarious idea, I think you will find that teenagers given a cool and an uncool car will do most of the same dumb shit in either car.

Teenagers and the dumb shit being done in/with/to cars are less crimes of passion, and more opportunity.

The Cap’n Crunch whistle wasn’t the only toy whistle that could blow 2600 Hz. Makes me think “hmmmm…”

It looks like it seats 6 and has some sort of rear area access, probably for storage of event displays and such. Honestly, this would make a badass tour bus for a small band.

I think it’s finny you made some sort of assumption around my motives.

I HAVE teenagers. I know full well what they will do. I am under no delusions otherwise.

The hilarity is around watching them flounder between “I want/need a car” and “I WILL NOT drive THAT!”

My buddy was actually in a Ween/Weezer cover band called “Weener” once.

Kinda surprised at how many friends I can sarcastically (yet appropriately) send this to …

Serious question: what would a clause look like to prevent a working means of transportation? I can see “no keeping of cars on blocks on lawn”.

My friend heard that wasn’t allowed on CL anymore?

So, um, I’m throwing my name into the ring:

It won’t be my daily driver.

UPDATE: It was a PRANK! The original listing turned out to be a prank :sob:Prank lands victim hundreds of offers to buy Wienermobile he doesn’t own | Driving

Sounds more like a sausage party.

Yup, I don’t think “Hey, Baby, want to ride in my wiener…mobile?” is really going to be much better than if they want to ride on it. Better that a true fan like Rusty has this. It will keep it out of the hands of men who can’t be trusted with it.

All I can say is that thing better have a back up camera, looks hard to see out of :open_mouth:

Also, maybe too commercial to really be a burning man car without some sort of treatment that takes a swing at its original intent?
