After seeing Jim’s prompt (suggested by Clive of Take It Easy,) my first thought was Cake songs, who seem to like to sing about cars.

dVerse — MTB — Cheating Shadows
Shadow’s long fingers move with sun’s shadow I parse your warm tanned lines with languid eye Shallow thoughts wander in summer shallows Why’s not a question I’m asking. Not why. Not where, as here.
