This is kinda cool:

Neil Young has a 1959 Lincoln Continental hybrid.

He's spent about a million dollars on it.

He had one, that is. He kept it stored in a warehouse with all of his original recording tapes, memorabilia and his collection of guitars. The “battery” on his hybrid sparked a fire that burned the whole thing to a charred mass of carbon.

Gotta wonder what was the environmental impact while generating the million dollars that car cost. If he could have gone without that extra million and driven a hyundai, imagine all that could have been saved in record production, heating/cooling of studios, paper for album covers, gas for tour busses, and the list goes on.

I was trying to remember what year he based the LincVolt on, and was thinking to myself I'd hunt him down and choke him if he had based it on a Mark II.

Of course, even if you're a brain-dead liberal, you know better than to base such a beast on a car as rare and valuable as that.

I hope that his batteries catch fire... and he can’t get his seat belt undone.
