What's the kmz extension on the file you can download there? Is it to watch the thing moving? I can't open it...grrr.

It looks like a canopy to me. Like, on of those things you park shopping carts under in a supermarket parking lot.

I don't know, I think we should all get ready for the end of times, that car looks like the one in Repo Man to me. And it could fly in the movie too.

I second the "what eff is that kmz-file?"

kmz is what google calls zip files. inside is a kml file which has coordinates for google maps software.

I still think that that is a car stuck up on a pole as an advertising thing.
