Someone buy this!
We have a 1982 Cadillac HT-4100 hearse. It does not run. It is missing the radiator, and the driver's window is missing (see picture). The car's mileage is 58,721.http://atlanta.craigslist.org/sat/cto/2215567738.html

Tell her it's an ambulance with a horrible track record of keeping people alive.

She's opposed to ambulances for the fact that someone "could" have died in one as well.
She still cringes at the realization that my stripper suburban which came from the factory with no rear seats and a rubber floor but was impeccably maintained (ie not a contractors truck) was in all likelyhood used for pre-funeral transport.

In 1982 a very senior guy in GM Canada fleet sales told me that in his opinion the 4100 motor "wouldn't pull your hat off your head." I cringe to think of it dragging a hearse.
Not that anybody here would be averse to a little swappage.
I think that came out wrong.

Tried going the flower car route once...sadly the only vehicle style she loathes as much as a hearse is the El Camino.

I have the same problem with my girlfriend, a hearse is a no-go because of the dead people thing. Doesn't really bother me so much. The price of gas would bother me a little though.

With or with Ted, they're cute.
No one has ever called a hearse cute.
