I keep seeing more and more donks around town here in Madison, WI. For the most part they’re your usual boxy malaise-era American cars, and sometimes newer stuff like 90s Lincolns, Buicks and Auroras. Plus the !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . Today I saw this Cutlass Supreme, complete with University of Wisconsin logo.

For some reason even though donks are stupid, I enjoy them. I think because nobody is going to take a donk seriously. They’re just for fun! It’s like they’re too ridiculous for me to get mad at them.

What the hell? They’re breeding?

I haven’t seen one in the DC area in the longest time. Second I go to North Carolina, it’s a different story though.

Reminds me of a Cutlass Supreme donk I saw in a junkyard. Excuse the potato.

That’s going to be fun to drive in the snow. Seriously, I know we invented donks down here, but I never thought they would spread north for just that reason.

A single tire and wheel swap and it’ll be a monster.

Donks are the best. The ones with big money into them are incredible.

I cannot hate them. I think they’re stupid and weird, but when they do them with weird old cars that have zero value, they’re kind of fun. I mean, they probably handle like crap, but at least they’re not ruining a good car like the stancers (which also make their cars handle like crap, but they also try to drive fast, unlike the donks that know their cars need to be driven slow).

Lots of people here in Wisconsin have more than one car. Fun car for good weather, beater for the winter.

(My “beater” is an ‘05 Grand Cherokee Limited Hemi. Kinda too nice to call a beater but it’s what I drive in the winter.)

Donks are better than stancebros for sure.

I have no logical explanation as to why they’ve become so popular here. But I don’t really mind. They’re fun.

Same, I don’t really mind either.

The people that drive them are still enthusiasts, they keep older cars running and on the road.
