According to this report, if you want a low-key, peaceful ride through Nevada’s Black Rock Desert, Burning Man festival is not the place to get it. And don’t take comfort in the fact the annual gathering’s outrageously styled art-cars must be registered with Burning Man’s own DMV. “It stands for Department of Mutant Vehicles,” David Best, a Burning Man veteran whose most iconic art car resembles a rocket, straight out of the 1950s, drily told The California Post.
Creating the inventive “mutant” rides - typically modified automobile chassis reassembled to look like chrome animals, desert galleons, dragons or spaceships - does not come cheap.
As Kevin Clark, the force behind the fierce looking Rhino Redemption, put it to The Post, “Whatever you think you want to spend on a car, you can at least double it. I’ve probably spent over a couple hundred thousand on the Rhino. Some cars are so extravagant they cost more than a million dollars to build.”
Must be nice to be rich. And a little bit crazy, huh?
Hoping for another big rain storm at that stupid event all the crap will sink into the silt mud. We go out on the playa for peace and quiet not for the invasion of Bay Area retards,
