I’ve seen it on TV. I was told all about it in college because getting to be on the crew was a PR internship for Oscar Mayer (or whatever parent company). I think driving the thing was one of Homer Simpson’s dreams. I just didn’t think I’d ever spot it at the same parking lot used by Dragon’s Lair, Conan’s Pizza, Terry Toys and Precision Camera! Up close it’s about the size of a delivery van despite the wheels being fairly far apart.
The person inside was nice enough to answer my questions. He was driving through, taking a leisure day in Austin. I asked him if he was on an internship like the one I always heard about at Marquette. Yup and he was from LaGrange, IL…my ex-roomie Paul knows this place because it’s in the Chicago area, near his ‘burb of Burbank. Oh, the interior was pretty spacious, looked comfortable and not a whiff of processed meats smells.
