Stop Limiting My Encounter w/ the World


As a child, I always thought being a UPS truck driver was almost as good as being Santa. Think about it! They get to drive around all day delivering packages to people. I dunno about you, but I think I actually get more excited for packages from UPS than gifts from Santa anyway. After all, nothing compares to the shopping experience online. I can discover new things, from the comfort of my bed, at 3 in the morning, and then in a rush of excitement (induced by the sugary deliciousness of my nightly hot cocoa and marshmallows), impulsively purchase the latest clothes and toys. Santa brings but a few sensational gifts, while the UPS person always brings me what I want.

Anyway, back to wanting to be a UPS driver... Not only for the pleasure of bringing people exciting and enjoyable packages, but also because they get to legally drive around with the doors of their vehicle wide open. I tried that once in my car, and it wasn't so much freeing as it was stressful (due to the alarm that kept sounding). I guess Santa rolls without doors or a roof, but only once a year, and in the coldest time of year. UPS delivery people just always seemed to be a margarita away from paradise to me.

Now you can see why this new concept car has me drooling. Finally, regardless of where I am or what my job is, I too can be like the UPS people and drive around without doors. Actually, there's also a hole in the roof, and in the back. No more feeling stressed out as I try to enjoy the world around me while driving with my door ajar, and no more backing into things I couldn't see through the rear window! It's kinda like a Jeep, except I'd actually buy and drive this.
