Rising Hegemon
Fred Keller and Judy Foster of Wasilla, Alaska converted their 1976 Mazda pickup truck into a giant Radio Flyer wagon. It took 11 months to build. Keller says, "you kind of get the sensation of driving a sports car."

How the "sane" and "rational" people of Wasilla operate
They don't twitter, or farm out their facebook page, but they do this:

" ...you kind of get the sensation of driving a sports car."
I don't know what kind of sports car they drive in Wasilla, but their new ride is about as aerodynamically similar to a sportscar as a toaster.
Wouldn't want to be in a crash in that thing, especially with the giant javelin, er, handle in front.
Dude ... I don't care WHAT you say, that is a sweet ride! Just don't take it around the corners too fast ...
think they'll think "sports car" this winter when it's raining buckets and dumping snow at a foot an hour?
That's actually pretty cool. It does more for the world than getting wasted on meth, or grifting and spewing ignorant, bigoted stupidity in the political arena.
These are clearly the coolest people in Wasilla. Maybe the only cool people in Wasilla.
And yes, up north our convertibles go into the garage for the winter. But we still like our ragtops the rest of the year.
Fucking retarded fucking fucks. Let 'em secede and send their former federal aid to Detroit, Flint and Cleveland.
it does seems awfully impractical. what is in the water in wasilla?
Ah, well, it's rather impractical, and probably a waste of money, but, it still falls into the category of American whimsy, in the vein of art cars, which makes it more benign than, say, picking the pockets of the confused, vulnerable and stupid of the country, like another Wasilla resident has gained a reputation for doing....
They've got my respect. Anyone who shows that much imagination and creative effort is worth a 1000 Twitterers (Twits?) or Facebookers.
looks like it was made in china. needs some nice rust spots to be american.
