When you are selling to a wide spectrum of customers, you have to show stuff on the edge. If they didn't sell it, they wouldn't promote it for long. Some people like to be different.
 
Maybe even put streaming flag decals on the outside!!!LOL

There you go Dave......
 
Now there is an intelligent answer.  I was somewhat dismayed with the response that I received on this subject. 
 
I am an artist both in my job and my hobby. I can paint you a portrait or a landscape that some will treasure in their homes; others will scoff and laugh.
 
I can turn clay dirt into beautiful pottery that will adorn patios and entry-ways, but others would use to store rusty nails.
 
When I visit an art gallery or attend an art show, many of the features I view, I do not care for. That doesn't mean I think that person has "pimped it up",.....to the contrary. I appreciate that person bringing his/her ideas to the for-front and displaying their living personality. It's what makes life exciting.
 
Dave's design on his "Red Corvette" and the interior design oo the Mid America Cover shows real Americans having passions that run outside of the everyday "mundane red Corvette" !!!!
 
P.S...I'll bet that cover Corvette is from Texas.
