POV joke about gas prices from @lamottagroup

A fence contractor creates a comedic POV video addressing high fuel prices by filming himself commuting to work on his son's miniature electric toy car. He maintains a deadpan expression while driving the tiny vehicle down a suburban street, fully loaded with a wooden fence post and digging tools, using the absurd visual to market his local business.
