But, will it hold two tubas and a music stand?

I want a buldozer for Christmas

"The Buldozer Song" (stolen off the John Boy and Billy Big Show)

1. If I had a buldozer, there'd be lots of parking places. Look at that brand new Corvette, taking up two spaces
[chorus] If I had a diesel rig, with a big ol' blade, treads just like a tank, I would have it made. Courtesy would reign, arguments abate-'cause everyone would know, I'd squash 'em like a grape.
2. If I had a buldozer, my application would go thrugh and my boss would run to get my coat-if I decided to leave by two.
3. If I had a buldozer, the I.R.S. would never chide. And an audit would go much more quickly, with a dozer idling outside.
[chorus] If I had a diesel rig, with a big ol' blade, treads just like a tank, I would have it made, courtesy would reign, arguments would cease, 'cause everyone would know, I'd squash 'em like a cheese.
[tuba solo]
4. If I had a buldozer, lots of doors would open up. And people would treat me with a lot more respect or I'd knock 'em down and squish 'em up.
[chorus] If I had a diesel rig, with a big ol' blade, the world would be a better place.

Ya gotta dream!

Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?

Yes but this one appears to get better fuel economy. Back in the day, Jabba could have a smooth vessel that got about 23gallons to the mile. This one looks like it might be a hybrid.
Umm, yes, that would be the "polite term" for it (as Peter Schickele once said of the tromboon*) ... :wink:

Gone the way of the Three Little Fishies and "Mairzy Doats", I suspect ... :wink:
