Technically it’s not a Donk. It’s a Bubble.

What is bubble? I went looking and couldn’t find a clear answer

It is a bubble because its bodywork is smooth and rounded. Bubbles are round n’ shit.

So I drive a bubble. Smooth bodywork, big tires, etc. Actually in south America the 80 series are nicknamed burbuja “bubble”. Who knew

Donks
Mid-’70s Impala, Caprice and Monte Carlo or any mid-’70s ride with a sloping tail 

Boxes
Mid-’80s Impala, Caprice and Monte Carlo or any mid-’80s ride with a boxy rear clip 

Bubbles
‘90s Caprices and Impalas, ‘90s rides that are rounded on both ends

Donks, boxes and bubbles. The three largest variations of the highriser culture. Donks were so called due to the emblem on the older impalas(think 64's but normally the body style directly following these), boxes due to the boxy body style impalas, and bubbles due to the round and bubbly body style of the era.

Edit: Examples

Box, Donk, Bubble in that order

Crazy enough I learned this from Mad Mike on his show after Pimp My Ride I cannot find that show in his filmography on IMDB or anywhere though.

Either really. Impala SS for the LT1, ‘91/92 Caprice for the fender skirts!

An early Caprice is such a great sleeper, I’d take mine in maroon with a plush interior of the same color. Hmmmmmmnnnnnggggg...

I think normally they start out around 24-26 inches. It’s insane regardless.

Basic Physics says that those large-diameter wheels put more leverage on the brakes. Don’t mention clearance under the fenders...

I can’t remember exactly what these guys do to make things work better. I know that they have done some at home engineering to make everything work properly. Well, the guys that take it serious at least(most of them)

I don’t think that counts here...

Have you posted from anywhere near Yellowstone or Jackson Hole lately?

The picture of the Jeep with the tank treads made me think of a used car lot outside an entrance to Yellowstone. Today a guy I know at my church was talking about his home in that neck of the woods and I thought of that Jeep post that you made.

ah, yeah the owner of this shop lives up a canyon at nearly 8000 feet that isn’t plowed in the winter, so he has to have something to get him to and from the gate. This Jeep is part of his winter daily.

I wouldn’t imagine that thing going more than 10 mph. That’s a lot of drive gear to turn over.
