• The horse drawn Hummer explains the need to save fuel

    Now here’s a Hummer H2 with some real horsepower. New York based artist, Jeremy Dean came up with this rather weird and novel idea of having a fully functional SUV be drawn by a horse instead of guzzling those liters of gasoline. Looks like the concept of Hoover Carts had a real impact on Jeremy, leading him to come up with something like this. The artist purchased the vehicle for $15,000, his entire life saving that is, and ended up with this project that he hopes to sell and recuperate his bucks. According to him, this is a satirical prediction of the future where the car which is supposedly an icon of fuel wastage, is being powered using an animal, like the horse drawn Hoover Carts used during the great depression. This just goes to show how much we need to save our natural resources instead of burning them all up on our luxuries. Here’s a thumbs up to Jeremy Dean!
