Banana Car Tour Across America

A giant banana car rolled through Montana—yes, really—and got pulled over for blocking license plates with boxes. No ticket, but social media exploded with banana memes. Built in 2008 by Steve Braithwaite after a gas station banana sparked his imagination, this one-of-a-kind Ford F-150-turned-banana-mobile has been his home and his mission for over a decade. Now living out of the car and touring the country under his “World Needs More Whimsy” banner, Braithwaite spreads joy wherever he goes, stopping to give rides and share laughs. He’s even crossed into Mexico, waiting for clearance from Mexico City. His goal? Simple: make people smile. And honestly, who can argue with that?
