“But what is this thing?”

“Dear PoPville,

I’ve seen you post about this (let’s call it a one-of-a-kind car) in Adams Morgan before, but I still see it around the neighborhood all the time and still don’t really understand what it is.

Is it like a political statement about carbon emissions? Maybe a nihilistic black cloud hanging over all of us? Would love to hear from the owner/someone who knows the origin story to figure out what exactly this structure is about.”
