Florida woman pulls gator from pants during traffic stop!
PUNTA GORDA, Fla. — Sheriff's officials say a Florida woman pulled a small alligator from her yoga pants during a traffic stop.
The Charlotte County sheriff's deputy stopped a pickup truck Monday afternoon after it ran a stop sign. Driver Michael Clemons, 22, told him he and his passenger Ariel Machan-Le Quire, 25, were collecting frogs and snakes under an overpass. He gave the deputy permission to search bags in the truck.
When the deputy found 41 3-stripe turtles in the woman's backpack, he asked if she had anything else. She pulled the 1-foot (0.3-meter) gator from her yoga pants.

According to Nunberger, the rear of the car is taken from a modular platform and is essentially a rear of a Rapide that has been added on. Of course, that required total reengineering, retesting, as well as re-crashing to bring it to production......
