For Sale


"For Sale: Stretch Hummer with wooden flooring and fireplace"

This small ad, found in a magazine, epitomises what I term "Only in America". After all, where else would someone take a military vehicle with fuel consumption of at best 17mpg (13l/100km), make minor adjustments like air-conditioning so that it's more pleasant to drive around town, add enough legroom to accommodate even the tallest NBA star, lay wooden floors and then - to make sure you leave a really meaty carbon footprint - fit a fireplace as well?
