Good morning.
Speaker A:It's Haystack.
Speaker A:And of course, gas prices have gotten kind of ridiculous.
Speaker A:And one guy in Georgia took one look at his $90 fill up for his Mercedes and said, you know what?
Speaker A:I'm going to switch to Barbie.
Speaker A:No.
Speaker A:Not getting a hybrid.
Speaker A:Not public transportation.
Speaker A:A Barbie Mobile.
Speaker A:This 30 year old contractor found a discarded Barbie Dream Camper on the side of the road and thought, finally my financial windfall has arrived.
Speaker A:You know, that's the difference between truly creative people and the rest of us.
Speaker A:I see a giant pink toy on the side of the road and I think litter.
Speaker A:And he sees it and he thinks transportation.
Speaker A:And he mounted it on a Go Kart frame, added brakes, lights, a horn and a sound system.
Speaker A:I mean, this guy gave that old Barbie camper an upgrade package and now it goes 55 miles an hour.
Speaker A:50.
Speaker A:It'll do.
Speaker A:55.
Speaker A:Now, I don't know what's scarier.
Speaker A:Seeing a Barbie Van doing 55 on the highway or realizing that it's passing your car.
Speaker A:Can you imagine getting in an incident and explaining it to your insurance company?
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker A:Can you describe the vehicle involved in the accident?
Speaker A:It was Barbie.
Speaker A:Was the driver okay?
Speaker A:Well, he looked embarrassed, but he was incredibly fuel efficient.
Speaker A:It costs $3 to fill up the Barbie van.
Speaker A:Go Kart.
Speaker A:The Barbie camper.
Speaker A:Go kart.
Speaker A:$3.
Speaker A:Suddenly, every dad in America is out back measuring old power wheels.
Speaker A:Honey, don't throw away the kids toys.
Speaker A:Daddy's trying to beat opec.
Speaker A:People, of course, are questioning whether it's street legal.
Speaker A:It's probably not.
Speaker A:But if I saw a grown man folded up in a hot pink Barbie camper at a stoplight, legality would not really be my first question.
Speaker A:My first question would be, why is this guy having more fun than all the rest of us?
Speaker A:That's the real story.
Speaker A:Everyone else miserable at the gas pump.
Speaker A:This guy cruising around in a Barbie Dream Camper with a sound system.
Speaker A:We're paying 90 bucks to drive back and forth to work, and he's living in what's essentially a live action toy commercial while saving money.
Speaker A:I love it.
Speaker A:I guess we need to make Ken the Secretary of transportation, don't we?
