What's Wrong With This Picture: Stow 'N Go Edition

Why do drug smugglers use Chrysler’s patented Stow ‘N Go storage system to smuggle $100k worth of marijuana across the Mexican border? Because they can. Or, because Wieden + Kennedy have another Caravan ad to make. But this is hardly the most entertaining shot from the LA Times’ gallery of “Bizarre Border Busts” [Hat Tip: Richard Chen]. No, you’ll have to hit the jump for that one…

    #10. Ford Super Duty w/ bales of weed in the back. "Ford Super Duty: - Bringin' home the bacon!" - Payload Re-defined!" - preferred by 4 out of 5 DEA agents!" BTW, one of the photos, perhaps #5, says woman behind side-panel ... this is incorrect ... look again, and you will see she was concealed between the IP and the firewall! (note the shifter in lower left of photo.)

    "Why do drug smugglers use Chrysler’s patented Stow ‘N Go storage system to smuggle $100k worth of marijuana across the Mexican border?" Apparently not such a good idea since they got busted. (Wouldn't this be easy for a drug sniffing dog to locate?)

  • ChristianWimmer It might be overpriced for most, but probably not for the affluent city-dwellers who these are targeted at - we have tons of them in Munich where I live so I “get it”. I just think these look so terribly cheap and weird from a design POV.
  • NotMyCircusNotMyMonkeys so many people here fellating musks fat sack, or hodling the baggies for TSLA. which are you?
  • Kwik_Shift_Pro4X Canadians are able to win?
  • Doc423 More over-priced, unreliable garbage from Mini Cooper/BMW.
  • Tsarcasm Chevron Techron and Lubri-Moly Jectron are the only ones that have a lot of Polyether Amine (PEA) in them.
