For $6,000, Cheetos Never Prosper
For $6,000, Cheetos Never Prosper-June 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:10:07

Cheetos are like cheesy and delicious little angel turds presented in a mylar bag. Today’s rolling advertisement Chevy Caprice could also be considered kind of cheesy, but will its price have you whispering, my lord!?

Considering that the U.S. Postal Service’s current dire financial straits has been artificially created by a , I’d say it’s high time we give our nation’s under-appreciated mail carriers a well deserved break.

Sadly, yesterday’s wasn’t going to help. In fact, not only did its price not deliver with a monumental 94% Crack Pipe loss, but it also incurred the ire of many of you just because of its dorky appearance.

Benjamin Franklin was our nation’s first Postmaster General, and the Postal Service is the rare…

Because of the response to yesterday’s kwazy kustom, today we’re going with something far more sedate, non-controversial, and totally anonymous in appearance.

Oh the hell with that, let’s do the Cheetos car instead.

Cheetos, the cheesy puffed corn snack, were first invented back in 1948 by Charles Elmer Doolin, and were sold regionally through the Frito company. Frito later merged with H.W. Lay creating Frito-Lay, and opening Cheetos to nation-wide distribution.

The tasty snack treats weren’t always called Cheetos, in the earliest days they were Chee-tos. Unfortunately that’s just one dyslexic away from toe cheese, and that’s not something any sensible person would want to pull out of a vending machine short of a bet.

While damn delicious, Cheetos - in their multitude of flavors - are one of the messiest means of relief when you have the munchies, leading some enterprising partakers to use chopsticks to eat them.

You know what else is a hot mess? Today’s , that's what. Look, do you remember , the sweaty betty who got the Microsoft Zune logo tattooed on his arm because mental health services in his state were lacking? Yeah, well this customized Caprice isn't quite that deep-tissue demonstration of brand fealty, but considering its size it’s a far more prominent one.

Zune Guy, who abandoned Zune because it abandoned him first, is considering crawling back to the…

But maybe you really like Cheetos? You do like Cheetos, right? I mean, who doesn’t? If that’s the case then it goes naturally that you’d like this Cheetos car. Just don’t try and eat it, stoners.

Sporting a wildly flamed and snack preference announcing paint scheme, this ’94 Caprice is all that and a bag of chips. That might not be immediately apparent as the pics in the ad appear to have been taken with a child’s pinhole camera, but you can check out the car in all its glory hole in the video below.

Yes, it once rolled on wicked big-ass bling rings, but those have now been replaced by a set of way-somber black steelies. That does nothing to detract from the Cheetos-infused awesomeness that is the rest of the car, however.

That includes custom red and orange upholstery that goes the extra mile by featuring yellow piping. Yellow piping! The Cheetos Cheetah represents on just about every surface here, and there’s even a frickin’ TV in the steering wheel. Man, I didn’t see that one coming.

What you might not see coming is this custom Chevy’s $6,000 price tag. It’s now time for you to wipe that orange crumbly crust from your fingers and hit the vote button for that price. What’ll it be, a Nice Price win for this Jumpin’ Cheetosaphat Chevy, or a Crack Pipe loss?

You decide!

, or go if the ad disappears.

H/T to Brian Maggi for the hookup!

The 2018 BMW X2 Actually Surprised Me
The crossover came out to mixed reactions from the enthusiast community, I still think the roundel badge on the C-pillar is a little much. But after doing a few hundred miles in one of these, I’ve decided the X2 is actually kind of awesome if you can appreciate what it...

For $17,950, Could You Become An Accidental Tourist In This 2007 Aston Martin V8 Vantage?
The nose on today’s Aston Martin needs a little work. More precisely much of it seems to be missing. While it’s true absence makes the heart grow fonder, will you love this absent nose Aston for its price? Have you ever dropped a deuce that made you particularly proud, or...

At $9,895, Could This Time Capsule 1980 Pontiac Sunbird Drive You Back To To The Seventies?
Yesterday we looked at a well preserved car you might want. With today’s Pontiac, we give you another that you might not. That might not mean its price isn’t compelling, however. Are you the reason people say ‘This is why we can’t have anything nice?’ I ask because 78-percent of...

The Honda S2000 Is Still Worth Worshiping
The Honda S2000 Is Still Worth Worshiping
I was so overwhelmed by the presence of this Montana sky blue 2009 CR that I first fixated on an oddly trivial aspect—“Is that a yellow trimmed interior?” Yes, and there are a few other details that make this special version of Honda’s roadster pop. But when you’re driving it,...

At $4,499, Could This 2004 Land Rover Freelander SE3 Set You Free?
Land Rover has a reputation for being one of the most unreliable brands on the market. And yet, people still drive them like they’re going out of style. Today’s Freelander is a Land Rover that has actually gone out of style, but will its price have you bringing it back?...
