    This would have been totally awesome for the Fourth of July fireworks.

  2. Jason says:

    And it’s even in an El Camino, nice.

  3. GabachoMike says:

    gots to wonder how long his rear shocks will take the abuse.

  4. Adam says:

    The funny thing is I’ve actually seen this before in Gatlinburg, TN in a light truck. It was quite entertaining when his axle broke when driving down the road. Arrests ensued.

  5. squidwish says:

    that is awesome lol

  6. angelone says:

    hehe, we did this some time ago, too.
    as long as you don’t drive the rear shocks can stand this.

    but never ever try to drive with 1000 litres of water in the back.
    i did and the water nearly broke the rear window when i braked.

  7. MAK says:

    Put a surfboard in the water , let the wind push you and save fuel!

  8. hattrick58 says:

    What a bunch of cheap bastards!! Have they never heard of Rhino Lining? Sheeesh….

  9. Just run a hose up from the tailpipe for that “jacuzzi” effect.

  10. Gsos says:

    why didn’t you call it a car pool

  11. David Moisan says:

    10 years ago, some college kids did this in Salem, Mass., driving down Lafayette St. from the college in normal traffic. It was a pool of water or at least we hoped so. I always wondered what happened to the truck.

  12. ashlee says:

    EPIC WIN

  13. Tay says:

    stereo type warning! i do not mean this

    but can you say redneck or trailer trash?

  14. mossy says:

    This is brilliant

  15. kingseez says:

    hahahaha! saweeeet!

  16. Travis.t says:

    would make for some fun at a fest!

  17. CB says:

    A few folks did this in Texas not that long ago, while waiting for the grand opening of a new hotspot. The night was muggy as hell, and the only ones who were comfortable were the ones with the port-a-pool!

  18. paul says:

    We did this when we were kids, only we used the inside of a boat in our backyard. Daddy had to drive the El Camino to work.

    I’m not kidding.

  19. Eddie says:

    Total Win. Period.

    I did that in one of these a year ago

  20. Deathwish says:

    we’ve done that before. Except it was an ’83 Chevy S-10 instead of an El Camino.

  21. Ben Alabaster says:

    I’m just wondering how he explains his misuse of the car pool lane… because you know it’s only a matter of time.

  22. The Cat says:

    This HAS to be tagged “carpool”.

  23. Hoppurr says:

    yes people often do underestimate the weight of water (about 8LBS/gallon)

  24. margot says:

    It must smell like hot dog water… so gross…

  25. Phear says:

    Dude take a pill of the chill variety :3 nothing better then a redneck pool x3 this things made of win all around~

  26. schjlatah says:

    Does it make me a redneck because I’ve done this?
    Only difference is I used a blue plastic tarp and did this to a Chevy Silverado Longbed.
    Looks awesome from inside when you stop after having filled the bed with water; it just washes over the cab like a tidal-wave.

  27. KrisKozey says:

    where are the Cigarettes?

  28. This makes me think a whole lot differently about a recent new york times article about a dumpster that was turned into an exclusive hipster party in ny – http://www.nytimes.com/2009/07/20/arts/design/20pool.html?_r=2&em

  29. Thee Partee says:

    “Hey ladies, wanna join our car pool?”

  30. Toonkee says:

    It’s fitting that it looks like they used a giant “trash” bag.

  31. WarDog says:

    Did the water suddenly get warmer?

  32. shorty says:

    haha love this my cousin did this once. redneck swimming pool. drove around town. idk if anyone took pics…

  33. valkyrie says:

    I did this when I was a kid. When in Iowa, this is what we called a ‘pool’.
