I was gonna vote for the General until someone reminded me about the old school Bat Mobile.

I mean come on folks.

It has a jet engine with flames coming out the back!

Can't get much cooler then that....

It started life as a 1955 prototype car designed by Ford and called the Lincoln Futura. After its show days were over, it was used in a Debbie Reynolds movie called "It Started With A Kiss" made in 1959. After that, it disappeared into a back lot storage until 1966 when it was purchased by George Barris and converted into the form which made it world famous.

Has anybody else heard that they were probably going to leave the confederate flag off of the General Lee in the new movie? I'm not gonna lie, I'm a little PO'd. Oh well, nothing I can do about it.

Saw a special on the new movie on TV a couple weeks ago and they talked about how they were going to leave it off because it was offensive to some folks but they said the final vote was that it staying on. Thats the last I heard on it anyway!
