The Wienermobile is a car that looks like a hot dog. The first Wienermobile was built for $5000. Carl G. Mayer, nephew of the lunchmeat tycoon Oscar Mayer, created the Wienermobile to transport the company's first spokesperson, "Little Oscar", through the streets of Chicago, Illinois, promoting Oscar Meyer's "German Style Wieners" and handing out "Wienerwhistle" toys to children.
