1. Holy-childhood-flashback-and-subsequent-misery-inducing-comedown-in-the-realization-that-life-was-infinitely-more-fun-as-a-kid!
I used to have one of these as a wee kid and even then, I found it so pimp-ass to shift from gear to gear, pretending to evade cops along some Miami boulevard (see palm trees). Then at the very end, I’d kick the gear into turbo and the lights would flicker faster and that’s when, if you’re fortunate enough to not have been epileptic as a child, you won’t get a seizure.
I also remember, it would use like, twenty D sized batteries which essentially meant parents will never replace them once they ran out of juice. Thus (thankfully) bringing to an end, any ambition to grow up to be Knight Rider.
For those of you who aren’t aware, the Knight Rider is also known as David Hasselhoff (guilty of taking pictures like these) and any admission to wanting to be Knight Rider (and hence, Hasselhoff as well) as a child would doom you to an adulthood plagued with halitosis, an uncanny knack for getting dumped by hot girls and untreatable back hair problems.
