The Trashiest Things People Have Done to Their Vehicles

Unless you live in a big metropolitan area like New York, DC, or Chicago, then you probably use your vehicle several times a day. You're in it for hours driving to and from work, taking the kids to and from school (not to mention all of their extracurricular activities), and to and from the grocery store at least once a week. We don't live in our cars, but sometimes it might feel like it. It wouldn't be a stretch to say that a good portion of our week is spent behind the wheel.

That's why some people make it feel like home. Their car is an expression of themselves so they want it to feel like it's truly theirs, so they customize it to their hearts' content. Sometimes, because of a busy lifestyle or a long road trip, you'll grab some food and have a meal in your car on the way to somewhere else. That's normal. However, these people have taken things way too far.

This is why we can't have nice things. We've compiled all the ridiculous things that people have done to their cars, including actual trash, trashy license plates, and trashy paint jobs. Beware out there! You share the road with these people, and that makes us rather worried!

Lettuce Out!

Lettuce Out!

Why would you ever need this many heads of lettuce/cabbage? Also, why wouldn't you just rent an actual van that is capable of this type of delivery? Notice that they ran out of room inside and strapped a few to the top as well.

We understand wanting to show off your doll collection, but the hood and roof of your car probably isn't the best place to do that.

Filled to the Max

Filled to the Max

This Nissan Maxima's back seat is quite literally filled...to the max. Why? The only valid reason is so he can say "Sorry, I can't give you a ride" to his needy friends.

Carbage

Carbage

Car + Garbage = Carbage. It's a perfect name for everything in this slideshow. But why would you drive around with this as your license plate?

An Environmentally-Friendly Vehicle

An Environmentally-Friendly Vehicle

We're not sure this is what they had in mind when they said "driving with the top down." You're supposed to enjoy the palm trees from the beachside drive, not enjoy them in your actual car.

So Lux

Is a snakeskin car luxurious or tacky? You tell us.

Is That A Good Thing?

Is That A Good Thing?

We thought sliding into someone's Direct Messages was supposed to be a casual thing. Something that you didn't broadcast. You want the public to know this? Good for you.

Too Much Work

Too Much Work

So this guy made a cover of "garbage" to hide his expensive tools in his work van. No offense, but we didn't want to steal a fan anyway. To us this just looks like too much work than it's worth.

Hold It Together

Hold It Together

If the entire right side of your car is going to fall off without duck tap, maybe it's just time to give up. There's really no saving it.

Larry the Mustang Driver

Get-Er-Dun hasn't been funny since 2003. It's time to move on. Also, we can guarantee that you aren't getting anything done with that license plate.

Secure Payload

Secure Payload

Don't take the top off of your truck bed. Just shove a full-size dryer underneath the lid and secure it with two tiny bungee cables. That should do the trick. Have fun on the highway. We're sure nothing will go wrong.

Drain the Swamp

Drain the Swamp

Oh, you really fooled us. We thought the hood of your car was a pool and that you had an alligator in there. Oh, wait. We weren't fooled. And this isn't cool. Please drain this swamp.

Got Milk?

Got Milk?

Just because it's your favorite snack doesn't make it a great vanity license plate. Unless you invented Oreos, but we know that you didn't. Do we have "guac" on our license plate? No.

Backseat Bugs

Backseat Bugs

How do you get to this point? This car is SO DIRTY that it has bugs crawling around inside it! At least they're sitting the backseat so they won't be hurt by the airbag.

Roof Riders

Roof Riders

This seems like a good idea. Carry the payload (TWO chairs) on top of your car with only ONE rope. Seems stable. Definitely don't call a friend with a truck or put it inside your SUV. Those aren't better ideas.

We Can Assure You, No You Aren't

We Can Assure You, No You Aren't

Are you though? Seems like UR2SEXY for a clever license plate because this isn't one.

Kiss Is Not Nickelback

Kiss Is Not Nickelback

No one likes the band Nickelback so, automatically, no one likes this car. It's called this transitive property. Also, how dare you compare Kiss to Nickelback. Shame on you.

FrankenCar

FrankenCar

Firstly, we don't think this car has the towing capacity for all of those things in the trailer. Secondly, it looks like the car itself is a collection of found parts put together. And if that's the case, then we're actually impressed you made it this far on the road.

Honest Abe

Honest Abe

This, at least to us, just seems like an invitation for police to pull you over and give you a breathalyzer. At least he's honest?

Super Size Me

Super Size Me

You don't just have a trash problem, it also looks like you have a fast food problem...

Ash Tray on Wheels

Ash Tray on Wheels

It's actually impressive that your car hasn't gone up in flames at this point.

Burnin' Up the Road

Burnin' Up the Road

No, we didn't edit the flames onto this truck. Its paint job is made to look like the front wheels are running hot. It's a great but pretty alarming paint job, if anything. Kudos to the artist, but the truck? We'll pass.

It Wasn't Us

It Wasn't Us

He who smelt it, dealt it.

Sorry, We're Dead

Sorry, We're Dead

They must be the living dead since they are about to turn at a stoplight. At least the sign fits among all their bumper stickers?

Oversized Load

Oversized Load

Sure you got it up there, but how do you get the items down? This is a real-world Jenga.

TMI

TMI

Please keep that to yourself. There are just some things that everyone doesn't need to know.

Filled to the Brim

Filled to the Brim

Sorry, honey. I can't take the kids to soccer practice today. I still have to take that stuff to Goodwill.

No Rope, No Problem

No Rope, No Problem

"No, no. I've got it." Somehow we don't think that holding on to it out the window will suffice. Also, good luck with all those overpasses.

The Trout Truck

The Trout Truck

We're sorry, but no one likes fishing this much. If you thought this was cool, we've got bad news for you. It's just weird.

High On Life

High On Life

As with other "cheeky" license plates, this just seems like an invitation for a police stop. Your bloodshot eyes are very convincing.

Literally Everything But the Kitchen Sink

Literally Everything But the Kitchen Sink

At first, we were impressed that you fit all these things in your truck bed. But then we realized that this isn't a truck. It's a station wagon with part of the roof missing. Actually, it could be strapped amongst the pile of things, and we just wouldn't know.

7 Wheels Are Better Than 4

7 Wheels Are Better Than 4

Let's just hope you only have to go in a straight line. If you need to make some turns, we don't really have faith. In this case, more wheels really aren't better.

Fill 'Er Up

Fill 'Er Up

How can you even reach the pedals if your cab is full all the way up to your elbows? Or turn the steering wheel? So many questions. So few answers.

Retro Wood Paneling

Retro Wood Paneling

Hopefully, they are just transporting this lumber and not wanting to embrace the retro faux wood paneling look. But if they are just moving some payload, why not put the top down?

If It fits, It Sits

If It fits, It Sits

Seems like it fits, to us. What's the problem?

Pucker Up

Pucker Up

Sure, hippos are cool, we guess. But are they this cool? And is it necessary for them to have kissing lips?

Jacked Up on Caffeine

Jacked Up on Caffeine

And this was all before 10 a.m.! He must have been wired that day!

Literally Lit

Literally Lit

We guess you're required to keep a lit cigar in your hands at all times if you're driving around with this license plate.

Is It an Optical Illusion?

Is It an Optical Illusion?

At first, we thought Scooby-Doo. Then, we thought "ruh roh." Followed by "yikes."
