  1. Grantski says:

    Looks fun to roll down a hill

  2. Dwayne says:

    For when you just can’t avoid bringing the in laws along.

  3. Dogmeat says:

    I don’t understand why you’re so upset all of a sudden. Earlier this week when I asked, you said I could hitch a ride!

  4. Thadius says:

    “Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are-”
    “IF YOU ASK ONE MORE TIME I’LL LEAVE YOU HERE!!!”

  5. dono1 says:

    Sure your parents can come along on vacation with us. But there’s a hitch…

  6. bob_super says:

    I was just tired of listening to the backseat drivers

  7. Blackmoore says:

    Talk about “separate comfort zones” this is the best option yet!

  8. SpaceFairie says:

    This is an almost elegant way to add seating without taking another car.
    Daisy chain it enough and you got yourself a snake bus with first class seating.

    • Unpro says:

      carries spare tires too.

      the whole thing would probably carry a tonne of load. But I bet there’s no braking on the wheels…yet.

  9. NM says:

    My man said he needed a little space…. so I gave him one.

  10. Serge says:

    The rarely seen American rickshaw…..

    • bob_super says:

      from the white line on the road and the style of the buildings behind, I wouldn’t say American.

      • Númi says:

        It´s taken in Iceland actually.

        • bob_super says:

          Insert narrow-minded “the volcano blew the front of the car” comment here, since we all know you all live in huts on the side of volcanoes after your banks went belly-up… Not sure if it’s better than ignoring you exist as was common last year.

          • You asked for it says:

            OK, Fine…

            Whatsa matta? Did the volcano blow the front of you truck off? But you were too drunk to notice? But it doesn’t matter ’cause that empty bottle o’ booze is the only thing you got left after your bank went belly up??

            Happy now?

    • waldo says:

      …previously owned by the Griswald’s.

    • Luke says:

      Looks like it from Australia

  11. Grantski says:

    For some reason I always hear banjos in my head when I look at—-YEEEEEEEEEHAW!!—this kludge. Anyone else up for some mud-trucking?

  12. Fluffy says:

    I don’t know.. I think that vehicle is trying to go to Narnia through that white portal.

    • Grantski says:

      Sorry, the entrance to Narnia is through A Wal-Mart freezer door :)

      • fluffy says:

        But.. this is a kludge website.. wouldn’t this constitute as one?

      • TheAntiCat says:

        Aslan the Noble Lion said that Narnia is everywhere. An entrance could be anywhere. However, Aslan also declared all portals to Narnia null and void in the seventh and last book of the Chronicles of Narnia, “The Last Battle.” *TheAntiCat bites his own tail and snaps out of daydream* What were we talking about again?

  13. Paigeygirl says:

    Why tell the kids “don’t make me pull this car over!” when the far more effective threat is “don’t make me pull this car apart!”

  14. Karma says:

    “Honey the kids are being loud, can you hit the big red button please?”

  15. surrealfarm says:

    There isn’t much room to sleep in there, or any privacy. Nor does it have any of the standard amenities required for a camper.

  16. Jim Beans says:

    Can’t wait to see what’s become of the front half…

    • Karma says:

      a chariot…

      • N3vermind says:

        hell yeah, a Chariot where the actual driver of the car in front sits in, and gets to control the car in front from the chariot ou back with the pedals and breaks and clutch and steering wheel, however standing up like back in the days with the horses. Of course rigged with a camera in front of the front car and a huge flat screen panel in the back window so that you can see wtf’s going on

  17. Church says:

    If you have a power cable from the hitch for the lights I’m sure you can jury rig power for a small air conditioner, or space heater. and power a computer or something for a laptop. I wouldn’t mind sitting back there, no one to yell at you either.

    • dono1 says:

      Or, since we left you at the curb, you could run an extension cord to the neighbor’s house.

      • fluffy says:

        … and you can go to the bathroom in their house while they’re at the marriage counselor.

        • TheAntiCat says:

          Why are you assuming the neighbors are at therapy? You always assume the worst when everyone isn’t acting perfect! You never listen to me! *throws vase at fluffy* Get the hell out now!!!

  18. Rollyn01 says:

    And in this instance, the van was cropped instead of the picture.

  19. MANACO says:

    Still 2WD…

  20. Am I freaking out? says:

    I feel I have seen all of these before.. maybe I spent too much time on the voting page? I need to lie down, or go chose the lotto numbers.

  21. Rollyn01 says:

    “When she said she was taking half of everything, I thought she was just kidding.”

  22. kunkmiester says:

    This looks shopped. Metalshopped.

  23. il rubi says:

    21 bad ratings on THIS? HOW THE HELL CAN YOU RATE THIS DOWN!
    the guy who made this is a GENIUS.

  24. Puddletater says:

    Don’t make me disconnect the hitch!

  25. Kenan says:

    Why didn’t I think of this before selling our old Honda Civics =.=”

  26. ann says:

    Considering that my family criss-crossed the country by car several times way back in the dark ages (yes, kiddies, there really was a time before iPods, DVDs in cars, cellphones or hand-held video games!), I’d have to admit my father would probably have LOVED one of these!

    Instead of getting red in the face from yelling at the bunch of us kids to shut up, he, my mother (and the luggage) would have a calm & peaceful trip in the lead car as we kids practiced our guerilla warfare skills on each other in this…..

    • Trippi Bongstalking says:

      Yelling? My mom packed a flyswatter and would just smack the crap out of whichever one of us uttered a peep with it.

      Now I get to drive my mom halfway across thew damn state every Thanksgiving and get my revenge for those endless hours of Captain & Tenille on home-recorded 8-tracks, Oh, you don’t like Rancid? How about some Minor Threat, then.

  27. Alleycat says:

    I’ve seen people do this with old trucks, but not an SUV.

    Epic win would be an El Camino

  28. Ron says:

    Nice mother – in – law seat!

  29. Ron says:

    This way we won’t have to smell them stinky dogs of yours.

  30. raahk says:

    this aint a v6 anymore

  31. vickie says:

    Oh, man, I would totally park this with the front facing into a brick wall, with some trees and shrubbery to camouflage the chopped part. Get a suitcase full of clothes and a cooler full of food, throw it around on the ground, and get your hidden camera set up for hours of stunned observer-fun!!

  32. BJ says:

    I walk past this everyday, it’s so close to where I live. I was even going to take a picture of it and post it here. Looks like you beat me to it, good for you.

  33. mandij says:

    We had a Pajero and the entire back converts into a queen sized bed, we had the leather seats which is good for Australia but not for cold places I’m told.
    So, if you were wanting a cheap alternative to a tent and I mean over here (Australia) you can pick those things up non working for under $400 bux, then you have comfort and shelter far superior to a tent.

    • Kenan says:

      We’ve got a 1985 Hilux with 2 small singles (I don’t really know what size they are, they’re just wider than a sleeping bag), great for camping

      Hopefully that Hilux will soon be mine

  34. Jeovi says:

    That’s probably the most believable off-road caravan I’ve seen to date….although I’m curious as to where the front is now?

  35. Jbeans says:

    As you can see, this is the wonderful, brand new kid-storage unit. Simply hook onto your car, put the kids in the back, insert a movie into the small tv, and you are off.

    I call shotgun… Hey, wait a minute…
