For more than a decade, the most valuable player during the Super Bowl received a car as a prize for earning the MVP status. That was when General Motors was a major sponsor of the season-capping football game. Now that Hyundai has taken over that spot, the MVP ride has gone away.
Let’s pretend, for a moment, that there wasn’t an automaker sponsor but instead that Hooniverse won Powerball and we got to choose the vehicle. What would the Super Bowl MVP receive if Hooniverse could choose?
Since I’m a Patriots fan, I’d probably give Nick Foles a Versa Note. I will note that the Eagles deserved that win though, and Foles was most certainly the MVP of the winning squad.
So to which vehicle does the MVP key belong?

Based on some of the scenes from the streets of Philly last night, an MRAP seems like it might be the best choice to drive there.

Oh well excuse us for knowing how to party.
A big truck.

It has to an Eagle Summit
Eagle Medallion.

It should be easy to flip over and burn if they win again net year.
I think I’d rather have an Eagle than a Jeep Patriot. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/cd29a2ffd9ee3ce5b237ca2f98089d1a0e781010ac7a8957f9a8b57657fd2344.jpg

A Summit, or a Premier?
If the MVP doesn’t want it I’ll take that.
I would say that since he plans on being a youth pastor after football a 15 passenger van would make sense.
Knute Rockne played professionally for a few years before becoming a college coach, so the choice is obvious.

I would have thought a Lombardi to be more your speed. Literally.

I’ve adopted the Rockne’s top speed of 75 mph as aspirational.

If Government Motors is out of the picture, let’s provide a proper government motor.

This seems too obvious. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3f/1983_AMC_Eagle_at_2012_Rockville_a.jpg/1024px-1983_AMC_Eagle_at_2012_Rockville_a.jpg

Obviously it should be something built in the Philadelphia metropolitan area.
