Say Hello To My Not-So-Little Friend

The drink that can get you into the HOV lane.I call him Gulpy. The point is, before you go to your local Dallas-based 7-Eleven and get the Double Big Gulp for only 20 cents more, think about your car’s limitations. If it’s like mine (as I found out), you have to resort to odd measures in order to drive without dumping sweet tea all over the place. If anybody out there has any stories about enormously inappropriate items they’ve hauled in their cars, Vespas, etc., please share. Other inappropriate items I’ve hauled in my Civic LX: 12 cinder blocks; four, 12-foot-long two-by-fours; countless bags of Quickrete; and a 16-foot-long canoe. On the up side, at least Gulpy makes me feel less guilt in the HOV lane.
