In episode 5.7 he tries to avoid Tony, who chases after him in his Escalade. This leads to Phil crashing the car into a bus. In the following episode, "Marco Polo", Phil makes a big fuss over the repairs, complaining that it isn't fixed properly leading to some consternation. I find this ornamental wheel cover (It doesn't look it could hold an actual tyre) interesting, pretty tacky isn't it? Executive Series trim, by the wheel rims. -- Last edit: 2014-02-17 18:04:34
