Too funny! I was driving home for lunch over W 12th St, and I saw a hearse. I noticed that it had red flames painted around the front wheels. Hmm. Then I saw the back, and it had something like "Some day, we all end up riding in the back" in big white letters. I am just guessing here, but I figure that the hearse is no longer actively used by a funeral home. ;)
I really think that it should have been the replacement vehicle for Claire Fisher when she flipped the green hearse in the last season of Six Feet Under.
