i love those guys....and they are right american cars are cheaply made crap....and though we were the first i would rate our cars in design quality and build quality, under the korean cars. 99% of what comes out of the factories here is trash. makes me proud to be an american....im going to mcdonalds to pick up some fat chicks in my bus with 40in spinners that i bought off Jayz

then im gonna repeatedly switch lanes without signalling while talking on my cell to absolutely no one....

Because it hasn't been posted before, some people haven't seen it, and it's funny.

Points from the vid that I'd like to reiderate.
  • The Cadillac brand is dieing. Probably not, but I won't miss it if it does.
  • The Escalade is poorly manufactured, like all American cars. Bit of an overstatement but it stresses a point.
  • The concept of being a balling blinger is to spend as much money as possible on an automobile that isn't worth the original purchase price. A friend of mine linked me to a a website store that rents rims. RENTS RIMS! Think about that for a second.
  • Old, fat, rich, white men from England just don't get it. I have to agree, it makes no sense.

I think basically this is saying that as a global society we are achieving higher levels of monetary value at a faster rate than we are achieving the knowledge, common sense, and planning to make the best use of our new financial status.

But people can do whatever they want with their money. Perhaps it's the people who gave them the money in the first place that I am most irritated with.

Great video.
"At first she thought no one was driving the thing, then the window rolls down and she sees a tiny little white man standing on the seat."
Those things are rediculous: horrible gas mileage, yet horrible perfromance, pointless huge, and I think they look stupid as well. Oh well, to each their own
