Comedian Blake Anderson is seeing growing success as one of the stars and co-creators of the Comedy Central show Workaholics. Not surprisingly, when you get your own TV show, there’s a deep desire to celebrate with a big purchase, a car perhaps. Anderson did just that, but as opposed to plunking his money down on a Porsche or Mercedes-Benz, he took a much more patriotic route.

Anderson described his ride as “an American Jeep” in an interview with Conan O’Brien, and he didn’t mean that it was from the AMC years of the off-road brand’s ownership. Instead, this one is as patriotic as they come thanks to a beautifully regal bald eagle covering the hood with the nation’s flag as the background running up at least to the windshield. Hear Anderson’s entire story of buying this red, white and blue off-roader in the video above.
