It used to be that when you took the Pinto out on the cobblestone streets of Collinsville, Illinois, you’d get treated to a little piece of Americana — The Strippermobile.

That’s right, in this quaint little town, a pickup truck hauling women in pasties and thongs could be seen roaming the streets and making old men wreck their cars into telephone poles.

But, sadly, this little piece of  culture is gone. Banned by a city council  made up of Puritans, Amish and guys named Falwell.

Sucks to live in a town run by eunuchs.

Apparently people found the striptease act during rush hour a bit of  a traffic-jam maker. Sort of like slowing down to watch a car wreck, only the moans coming out of the vehicle sound a little hotter.

Not all the residents are happy about the new anti-obscenity law. As one gentleman put it, “They let those damn Smart Cars on the road, and what kind of pussy piece of crap could be more offensive than that?”
