In its natural habitat, the elusive and nearly extinct 1967 Impala assumes the prone submissive mating position, while displaying its vibrant coloring, in an attempt to attract a suitable candidate for maintaining the viability of the species.

... but in reality it is not there for mating but looks for sources of spare parts. It crashes its victims with the raised tail . . .

The attempts of one CR4 member to solve the problem of what happens to a helium balloon in a car go drastically wrong.

As that Johnny Cash song goes... "One Piece at a time"

"I got it one piece at a time
And it didn't cost me a dime
You'll know it's me when I come through your town
I'm gonna ride around in style
I'm gonna drive everybody wild
'Cause I'll have the only one there is around."

Tired of pushing his glasses down to see out his bifocals, Joe decided to change the 'angle of the dangle' on his car instead.

Having to haul Mom and Dad Lardaz around required extensive modification to the suspension to compensate. Bobby couldn't complain. After all, it had more class than the flatbed.
