There's one about "Mr. Enormous SUV Driver". I think Hummer's and Excursions fall into that category.

That reminds me of the Excursion I once saw doing 55...in the left lane. I mean, it's great to improve your fuel economy, but come on...that's what, 10 to 11? Might I suggest...a smaller car?

Yes, i saw the "mr enormous suv driver". I also like the one you did with hypermiling, verry fnny. I just thought this guy earned a category himself by advertising his shortcomings.

Sorry - the CXT is even worse, but let's not inspire him to do so.

....Mr. low mileage man
Real men of genius
Bud Light presents Real Men of Genius
Real Men of Genius...

Today we salute you, Mr. Really Low Mileage Guy.
Mr Really Low Mileage Guy...

Jacked-up suspension? Check. Chrome plating? Check. 26-cylinder engine? Check. Loan application for fuel? Check.
Let's check it all out...

You advertise your extremely bad mileage in every way you can. And you don't give ten tons of truck what anybody else thinks.
That's right, motherf*cker...

Nevermind that you never actually take your dreadnought off the road. You're a proud patriotic American.
Land of the Free...

So truck on home, Mr. Really Low Mileage Guy and crack open a Bud Light. While you're at it, crack open a gas can to get home. In fact, feel free to crack open ten gas cans.
Proud OPEC Buyer Everyday...

Bud Light beer, Anheuser-Busch, St. Louis, Missouri.

I'd have to win on lyrics alone.

When I'm singing, I'm either singing or I'm scratching on a chalkboard with hundreds of finger nails.
