Mary Barra: More charging stations, less flair?
Vroom-Vroom Fizzles: When electric cars meet Tramp's sparkles
Oh, hold my Diet Coke because we're just getting started, ladies and gentlemen! Mary Barra, the so-called "Queen of Motors" who thinks she can revolutionise the car world. Pah! Has she ever built a car out of pure gold? I bet she hasn't even tried to fit her vehicles with diamond-encrusted exhaust pipes. Where's the style? Where's the flair? Where's the TRAMP?
She talks about innovation, but let me tell you, I have more innovation in my pinky finger than she has in her entire... Car doodles. Electric cars? Please. What we need are cars that run with pure, unadulterated attitude! Cars that not only respect the environment, but also shout at the environment, "Hey, I'm a TRAMP-mobile, kiss my shiny hubcaps!"
She says: "We have to look to the future, we have to protect the environment." And I say: "Look in the mirror, Mary! The future is TRAMP!" Our cars shouldn't be humming quietly; they should be singing the national anthem! Loud and proud! They shouldn't just drive; they should be able to walk on water! Because they can, if only they BELIEVE!
Oh, and safety, yes, Mary talks a lot about safety. But what could be safer than a car that is so luxurious that it avoids accidents itself because it refuses to damage its immaculate bodywork? The Trampmobile won't just have an airbag, my friends; it'll have a whole VIP room with velvet cords and a butler to hand you hors d'oeuvres while you wait for the police. That's the kind of security I support!
I'm not saying Mary doesn't try. She tries so hard. Almost as hard as I try to take care of my immaculate mop of hair - which we all know is a full-time job. But trying isn't enough, Mary. Not if we could live in a world where cars are self-assured, patriotic, steak-fuelled marvels of modernity!
So, Mary, give me a call. Let's abandon these "green" machines and instead switch to the colour that really matters - gold. Let's build something that not only saves the climate, but also impresses the universe. Because if we work together, every car can be a Trampmobile, and every Trampmobile will be a winner. Why? Because I, Ronald Tramp, am involved, and I know no other way than the road to success. It will be fantastic, tremendously fantastic, I promise you that!
