Anyone got a pic of the Pimp My Ride Bus? Splitty representing!, yo.
Up, up the long, delirious, burning blue, I’ve topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace. Where never lark, or even eagle flew. And, while with silent, lifting mind I've trod, The high untrespassed sanctity of space, Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.

Because it is relatively cheap and eye-catching for their target audience: idiots that want to overpay for orange-flavored sugar water.

Actually, compared to what they have done before, that isn't too bad. The Sunny D however, looks terrible. Sunny D and a Bus? Logic?

Is that a '64 Splitty? Maybe that's why they did it? I actually don't think it looks too bad, from a design standpoint. VW buses are "in" right now, so they are smart for using a bus as a marketing ploy.
"The bus is the real talisman. It's the thing that runs through all of this history. It's not a thing anybody owns or controls. No matter how peeved you get with people, the bus always makes your heart jump. Everybody was attached to it."

The scary thing is Sunny D falls on the healthier side of the processed crap we're told is food.
