- ―The Canyonero jingle[src]

| Vehicle Information
|
The Canyonero is a Sport Utility Vehicle (SUV). It was endorsed by Krusty the Clown. Homer buys a red Canyonero but soon realizes he bought the F-series for women. He refuses to drive it, not wanting to be seen as a homosexual; when Marge drives it, it sends her into a state of road rage. The Canyonero is said to have space for over thirty passengers as well as the driver. The Federal Highway Commission has ruled the Canyonero unsafe for highway and city driving.
Jingle
The jingle was sung by Hank Williams, Jr.
Can you name the truck with four wheel drive,
Smells like a steak, and seats thirty five?
Canyonero! Canyonero!
Well, it goes real slow with the hammer down,
It's the country-fried truck endorsed by a clown,
Canyonero! Canyonero!
Hey, hey!
Twelve yards long, two lanes wide,
Sixty five tons of American pride!
Canyonero! Canyonero!
Top of the line in utility sports,
Unexplained fires are a matter for the courts!
Canyonero! Canyonero!
She blinds everybody with her super high beams,
She's a squirrel-squashin', deer-smackin' drivin' machine,
Canyonero! Canyonero! Canyonero!
Whoa, Canyonero! Whoooooaaaa!
Behind the laughter
- The design is a parody of large SUVs and the "I own an SUV, therefore, I own the road" style of driving. (The jingle helps to demonstrate this.) The Canyonero was introduced just as the SUV craze began to hit the United States. It looks like a Jeep Grand Wagoneer (1963-1991) and Classic Land Rover Range Rover (1970-1996). In The Last Temptation of Krust, it is a 984 Jeep Grand Wagoneer. . In Marge Simpson in:" Screaming Yellow Honkers, its Land Rove Range Rover.
