So, if those people on "Pimp My Ride" can't afford to get a decent car to replace their piece-of-shit junkheap, what makes MTV think they can afford the insurance on the pimped-up vehicle?

Date: 2005-07-16 02:14 am (UTC)The improvements in these shows are going to be considered cosmetic, and unless the winners pay extra to insure the built-in wide-screen TVs and eighty-speaker sound system, they're not going to get much if the stuff is stolen, and the loss won't really affect whether the car can get them to work and back.
If these people could afford insuring their car against theft before the customization job, I suspect theft insurance after them wouldn't go up much either.
