The last Volkswagen Beetle rolled off the production line in Puebla,
Mexico today, after a 64 year run. A rather impressive feat for a car
designed in 1934 at the request of Hitler. It's longevity is a testament
to the German engineering of the time-if Hitler wasn't such an idiot the
Reich probably would've overrun the world. They certainly had the
technical capacity to do so. Lucky for us he was such a dumbass.
