Caption Contest!

By Rob Einaudi

Editor-in-Chief

This one comes from FailBlog via Jalopnik. The photo is especially amusing for me because 1) I own one of these Subies and 2) half the cars in Seattle are Outbacks. I’ve never seen one with a bumper like this, though. So you know the drill: Come up with a caption for the picture below by noon PST next Thursday. If you submit the funniest one, we’ll send you a great big bag of CarDomain swag. And remember to leave a link to your ride page so we can contact you. Three entries per person max. Good luck!

Caption Contest!
