Sometimes, like it or not, the satirical website known as The Onion makes fun of the things that you love. And we get it; cars, evidently, are great fodder for jokes.

With April 1 in mind, there’s no better time to go back to some of our favorite headlines and stories from The Onion and share them with you.
