I'm not advocating capital punishment for stupid people.
I'm just suggesting we remove all the warning labels
and let the problem solve itself.

That is cool, now just imagine that with a pop up camper roof like the old VW bus.
For God's sake, let us sit upon the ground and tell stories of the lives of Kings, Those that drive an AMC of course!

Well....I have been to a funeral or two in the middle of nowhere that could have used the 4x4. The Caddys don't always have the best traction, but its a wee bit short and well....I think a little more sporty than most mourners would go for....interesting though...

There have been a few times at work when that would have been better than what the funeral home used.

A few Funeral Homes in the area use Suburbans since some cemetaries are hard to get into in the winter months.

I don't think anyone riding in the back will have use for the back doors.

That is a nice job.  I also like the idea of the camper version.
