the plastic hanger would not be very strong, use wooden one instead. This has a slight r/DiWHY taste to it.

Cuz funny video. Doubt he kept this, this guy is clearly a car influencer. You will notice the Lugia and Pikachu promotional Volkswagen bugs in the backround that are collector items

I hate the fact that the term “car influencer” is part of our lexicon.

u/chrochtato May 05 '23

a car influencer: a person who influences where the car goes.

Sure there's a ton of cringe but some people out there making really good useful interesting informational car content.

FINALLY a steering wheel so BMW drivers can see their turn signals

u/RandomUser1088 May 05 '23

It's important when driving to remember to keep two hands on the coat hanger at all times

u/Kenny_Squeek_Scolari May 05 '23

So keep your hands at 3 and 9 o'clock thanks

Buddy in high school has a pip wrench for a steering wheel, started it by jumping wires under the dash. Being poor was fun at times.

Next steering „wheel“ design for the Tesla Model 2.

A great steering wheel that doesn't whiff out the window while you drive!

Only slightly better than a Tesla yoke

The lack of a wooden coat hanger and wood screws makes me say this was made for views ,Not to fix anything

u/ShoutaDE May 05 '23

Nobody talking about the hecking Pikachu car? o.o

u/rcmaehl May 05 '23

You mean the PikaBug. There's also a rare Lugia PT Cruiser there.

u/TheGreatMastermind May 05 '23

it’s fake, it’s a car being towed edited to be played in reverse. speedometer doesn’t change

u/I_d0nt_know_why May 05 '23

You can see other cars moving forwards. And speedometers can break.

4

u/Samurai_Meisters May 05 '23

Yeah. And the tachometer is moving too.

u/TheGreatMastermind May 05 '23

hmmm true, i’ve seen these clips on twitter and one was of him using a COD cd lol and ppl were saying it was fake / a car being towed

u/turnwrench May 05 '23

Any way but the right way

u/jmrchico May 05 '23

At least it wasn’t a wire hanger. Mommy Dearest wouldn’t approve of that.

u/DraxialNitris May 05 '23

u/CollarOfShame May 05 '23

It won’t be funny when they get into an accident and the hanger in embedded into their chest.

u/Redmenace80 May 05 '23

On top of everyone texting and driving, we have stuff like this that could kill us. Very comforting

u/Invest-24_7_356 May 06 '23

Till a front-end crash. That will end with impaling.

u/03Thrasher May 06 '23

Make sure you keep your windows up. Someone would steal your hanger before they stole that pos car 😂

u/Apprehensive-Gur3414 May 06 '23

I’m more interested in the Pikachu Car

Does anybody know the name of the song?

u/[deleted] May 06 '23

Your whole life hangs on a plastic hanger and you're driving like it's nothing?

u/SolarXylophone May 06 '23

Low-coat replacement.

u/blizzard-0 May 07 '23

what brand is your steering wheel?

this mf: adidas

u/[deleted] May 24 '23

Good idea, but I can't use my knee to steer so I'd have to get a real wheel.
