Friday marked Chrysler’s last production of the PT Cruiser. And my question is, what took so long?

First brought on the market in 2000, the PT Cruiser has had a surprisingly good run. I’m shocked it lasted a decade. People actually continued to buy these cars for TEN years. Damn.

So, here is my favorite PT Cruiser video:

And did you know there was a convertible version to this monstrosity of a car?

I mean HONESTLY people.

Nothing makes a PT Cruiser cooler than flames:

Or, wood paneling:

Wait, a scenic beach view may top the wood paneling:

Can someone PLEASE tell me why anyone thought these cars were cool?

Apparently there is some big to-do about the new Erykah Badu video “Window Seat.”  Well I watched it and after the first few seconds knew what the buzz was about– real parking meters still exist?  The ones that take coins?  And celebrities actually pay them?  Yeah right Erykah Badu, it’s gonna take more than that to shock me!

And while we’re at it… same to you Ricky Martin.
