The Banana Car

Move over, Weinermobile… There’s a new phallic motor vehicle on the road — The Big Banana Car. Brought to us by The Dirty Brothers, Steve and Spade Braithwaite, the four-seater former pickup truck was designed and painted to look just like an oversized banana.

The Big Banana Car will hopefully go on a world tour soon, as the brothers are looking to take it on a ride around the world. Keep an eye peeled, as it might slip into your town. See it before it splits. Ok, I’m done.

How To Cook a Burger With Your Car Exhaust

We’ve all been there… Having to use our car’s engine block to reheat our franks and beans, or to fry an egg. Now, we could seemingly use the other end of our vehicle to cook up a burger, with the Exhaust Burger. The contraption hooks up to your car’s tailpipe, and using the heat from the exhaust, will cook your hamburger while you take a spin around the block.

And, passersby of your roadside BBQ will be none the wiser, as the Exhaust Burger will also add authentic-looking grill marks. Oh, did you want cheese on that? Pop the hood.
