Ron with the help of Red Fork Hippie Chick from Route 66 News, have worked very hard with a magnifying glass to try and read what all the bumber stickers say on the back of Fillmore (Voiced by George Carlin), the organic fuel drinking hippie from what is sure to be one of this years biggest hits, Cars.
Using an illustration from The Art of Cars and a detailed Fillmore toy that recently hit stores, they discerned at least 75 bumper stickers.
WHAT A MAMMOTH TASK!
You must take a look at the full list here. It is amazing at what time and effort both Ron and Red Fork Hippie Chick have taken to get them, as well as the creative team at Pixar have done to make them all!
Here are some of my favourites
– “Free Mother Road”
– “Save Mother Road”
– “Pardon My Backfire, I Eat Veggie Fuels”
– “Save 2-D Animation”
– “I Brake for Jackalopes”
– “My Inner Car is Electric”
Its well worth the time to take a read of them all!
Great job Ron and Red Fork Hippie Chick! You two deserve a merit!
I used the 360-degree turnaround thingamajiggy on the Cars site with Fillmore. I saw the “I brake for jackalopes” and the “Save 2D Animation” ones. 😉
Thanks for the compliments. With our tag-team efforts, it didn’t take that long. Hippie Chick read out the bumper stickers, and I typed them as we went.
There still were about three or four bumper stickers on Fillmore that we weren’t able to decipher.
I found the Cars shirt I got for Easter! I found an EBay pic from it. (It’s not mine, though. :P):

Ron, I am sure you will be able to read those ones that you couldnt decipher, when the movie comes out on DVD.
Trace…That is a very interesting shirt! I’d love to have a look at it in full. Nice find!
