The Car, which is also known as a
Whip, Hooptie, or Panda, is used both for transportation and to convey thr status of
one's standing within
society. The car has proven useful for picking up Ho's, sharing
one's
music with the world around them, compensating for undersized appendages, or heading to the
local drive-in for a
bit of nookie. Around the world, each nationality has imparted it's own strengths and uniqueness to various renditions of the car and continued to push the boundaries of innovation. Latin America continues to show us that the term 'vehicle capacity' is only limited by
one's imagination. The Chinese continue to
break the limits of vehicle safety features as they unravel the mysteries of the turn signal. Rural communities have redefined vehicle valuation practices by emphasizing ride height; limiting payload only to the size of
one's belt buckle; and producing black clouds of smoke in quantities that would make a power plant jealous. Inner city groups have advanced hypnotic, centrifugal
wheel configurations that may unlock the secrets of both alternative power and time travel; vehicle portability; and security features - all while creating an underground, secondary market where the price of a vehicle is often defined solely upon the valuation of its blades (or rims). The car is arguably one of the greatest modern marvels of our time. Since its birth more than 100 years ago,
one can only wonder what the next 100 years will entail.
