You can't tell which end is the front.

"and thought she was moving in reverse. But she instead went forward"

Looking at how far she buried that thing in the garage makes me wonder............ How fast do you have to back one of those things up to get it to turn around?

Mental note: No evasive driving tactics in the Weinermobile.....

Anybody looking for a job? Oscar Mayer may need a driver once that thing is out of the body shop.

Well, the oath of office sure seems straight forward.....

As official Hotdogger of the celebrated Oscar Mayer Wienermobile, I salami swear to uphold the dogma set forth here, and I promise to:

Encourage wiener lovers nationwide to relish the delicacy, ketchup on the great taste of hot dogs, and give in to the craving once it's mustard. Be frank and furthermore, to be upstanding in a line for hot dogs at ball parks, barbecues, buffets, and other bashes. Journey into the streets, dachs, und ports of my community, wish well to all comers, plump and lean — and leave them with a wiener to roast about. As once I wished I were, now I am — an Oscar Mayer Wienermobile Hotdogger.

Maybe they should require some driving experience instead of a college degree in marketing.

Now I realise I am just an old country boy but I would think if you were sitting
in the drivers seat looking forward R would mean opposite the direction you are sitting and F is still the direction in which you are facing.

Liberal interpretation of the shift quadrant: "R" is for "Race".
