Hooniverse Car of the… Decade?

We’ve been running this vehicular asylum for some time now. Each year, when December rolls around, we offer up a handful of vehicles on which you can vote. The goal is to crown one winner as the Hooniverse Car of the Year. We pick the nominees. You decide on the top dog. This year, we’re not going to do a Hooniverse Car of the Year. No, this time around it’s time to see which vehicle you believe should be crowned the Hooniverse Car of the Decade.

Sometime between now and Christmas, I will post the past HCOTY winners. Those will serve as the nominee pool for this year’s competition. So stay tuned for that post, which will refresh your memory on past Hooniverse “glory”. And then a separate post will have the poll, and we will leave that post stickied for a bit so people can get their vote in.

After the New Year, I’ll unstick the post, close the poll, and we can award the title of Hooniverse Car of the Decade to one deserving vehicle.

    I’m a little biased, but it’s a definite hoon-worthy car, at least 2 regular commenters have one, and it was a product of this, and only this, decade.

    Current-gen 4Runner, as I’m pretty sure all Hooniverse writers are mandated by Jeff to buy one at some point, and it’s literally been available for sale the entire decade.

      Problem is that you and I are the only ones who seem to know the secret.

        Lack of awareness and upscale exclusivity on a budget aren’t the same thing? Right. Next thing you’ll tell me is Miller High Life isn’t the same as a chilled bottle of uh… (opens google) Bollinger Les Vieilles Vignes Francaises champagne.

          That has to be the ugliest police car, ever.

            At least it’s easily recognizable as a police car, unlike the black Explorers with ghost markings, or worse the straight up unmarked pickups that we have over here.

            I saw a Taurus SHO, all black, at the mall the other day. As a car went past, its headlights lit up this black reflective tape on the side of the car with full RCMP markings. Coolest shit I’ve ever seen. Without the headlights, it was just a black car. As soon as the car went past, full police car. I was honestly impressed.

    I nominate the Charles Barrett Special, if only to find out the current status. OLRF left us hanging.

      Ha! This olelongrooffan was 0 for 6 or so in the H.C.O.T.Y. process. Hellaciously impressive competition but even a write in selection wouldn’t win this one for Charles. However, an update on the Charles Barrett Special is forthcoming. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/6f7293830a22526e1399de8c5c0d792457a95a5bc7b8c2cd66dd5a8f2091a327.jpg

        It already has the most upvotes in this article.

      I upvote it just for Charles. That magnificent bastard, may he rest in peace.

    Perhaps Project Binky will be completed by 2029?

    I can’t find it in my 30 secs of looking but the one that started it all. The Malibu Wagon with the 4sp big block.
