Doesn’t it seem especially cruel, it being the first week of March, for me to show you cars with surfboards, bikes and other outdoor sporting goods, just rubbing in the fact that for us, winter is just a summer with a sweatshirt? If makes you feel any better, I took most of these shots in late December.
So check this out: we Angelinos to get outside. But you still gotta get yourself and your gear to the beach, mountain, whatever magnificent place you’re headed to and that process can really separate the Dudes from the Douchebags. Consider this guy:
Classic surfer dude. Not only is his longboard safely snuggled in a board bag, but that puppy is strapped securely to the roofracks, it’s not going anywhere–unlike this nonsense:
I want to like you, because putting a surfboard on a late model Carrera is pretty bad ass. But when it’s all askew like this, I really wonder if this is your boss’ car and scratching his roof is your passive aggressive way of screwing him for not giving you health care. It’s unclear. Either way, you’re slightly douchey.
But not as douchey as this:
Watch out, Mr. Pedestrian, you might get whacked in the sack by this ding dong’s fin. Or God forbid, a motorcyclist decides to pull up on the left and get decapitated doing so. This is really bad. As if driving a Kia Rio isn’t embarrassing enough (yeah, I said it).
Let’s all take a lesson from my favorite, Mr. F100. This is old school sport transport at its best– calm, cool and collected and the Ultimate Dude.
