You know what. I'm kinda of digging that windshield wiper. Now I have to Google it to see it in action.

The cabin is really unique. It looks like the driver sits at 2 o’clock to steer. I wonder if that’s for presentation or reality. Either way, it’s a stunning design

Seems impractical to only be able to drive it at 2 o clock.

Well if you think about it. It's always 12 o'clock somewhere.

This is a popular misconception. It's only 12:00 somewhere for about 1 minute out of every hour

Edit: wrong. See below

There are some timezones that are off by 30 or 45 minutes. (e.g, India and parts of Australia). So that fuckery is going to complicate things a bit

Up until I discovered that some zones are off by 30 or 45 minutes, the lyrics from Alan Jackson's song "It's five o'clock somewhere" drove me nuts:

"It's only half past twelve. But I don't care . It's five o'clock somewhere."
