Fire up the chimney in your Hummer

A lot of people seemed to like to idea of a remote-controlled H2 terrorizing their homes, so we got to thinking: These folks need a real one to go with it. But given their obviously discriminating tastes, it couldn't be just any old Hummer.

That's why this custom creation is the perfect mate: Not only does it have all the appointments of a fully loaded model, but it also has--get this--a fireplace and chimney, including a built-in flat-panel display to go with the oh-so-klassy white shag rug. Gizmag says this beauty was made for a German TV show by a Munich-based shop that "specializes in building outrageous American automobiles." (Ya think?)

We can already hear Barry White's Love Theme wafting through the cabin. Somebody, pass that bottle of Ripple.
