saw this in Orlando today
My first thoughts were: What is this ... a 'street sweeper'?

The 4th photo confirms it ... road debris is caught on it.

Re: saw this in Orlando today
Nothing screams "Attention Whore" as people who own such vehicles.

I'll be glad when this fad (see pic below) passes and the muscle cars come back. These youngun's on the road in these Honda's (rice cars) with the over-sized muffler piss me off too. All noise and no speed.
