<br />
Everybody has their own definition of cool, and the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/woodward2009">Woodward Dream Cruise</a> may be the ultimate microcosm for the wide-ranging tastes of auto enthusiasts. While most cruisers show up with classic muscle cars or perfectly preserved classics, automotive outliers seem to prefer more abstract expressions. We just so happen to love both - because it just isn't a party without the guy with the lampshade on his head.<br />
<br />
The 2009 show was no different from past Dream Cruises, with interesting rollers like the bizarre and fascinating <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/woodward-2009-the-weird-and-the-wonderful/#10">BMW Isetta </a>to the disturbing and controversial <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/woodward-2009-the-weird-and-the-wonderful/#110">harbinger of death</a>. If you want the precursor to the DeLorean, Woodward gives you the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/woodward-2009-the-weird-and-the-wonderful/#109">Bricklin SV1</a>. Heck, you can have <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/woodward-2009-the-weird-and-the-wonderful/#28">the classic Time Machine</a> too. While we know they may be passe, how can you lose with <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/woodward-2009-the-weird-and-the-wonderful/#8">elephantitis of the Truck Nutz</a>?<br />

The state senate decided that adorning a hitch with a set of bull clock-weights should be punishable by a $60 fine, though the vote was far from unanimous. Sen. Jim King, (R-Jacksonville) actually owned a set before his wife insisted the truck be emasculated, and the adept politician was on record calling the genital display "an expression of truckliness." If I lived in Florida, that guy would have my vote. <br /><br />It kills us that people can talk on the phone while putting on makeup or eating a cheeseburger, but Truck Nutz are considered a distraction worthy of a substantial fine. And how in the hell are the cops going to keep a straight face when they have to approach a car and say "Excuse me sir, but do you realize there are testicles hanging from your bumper?" Get that little conversation on tape and you've got an instant YouTube classic. <em>Thanks for the tip, Stephen!<br /><br /></em>[Source: <a href="http://floridacapitalnews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080418/CAPITOLNEWS/804180359">Tallahassee Democrat</a>]<em><br /></em><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/04/21/the-irony-state-shaped-like-penis-bans-truck-nutz/">State shaped like penis bans Truck Nutz</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblog</a> on Mon, 21 Apr 2008 11:28:00 EST.
