Origin Story Of The Dogeclaren 🙂

by Julia Love and Gary Lachance

Most people initially suspect that I’m a crypto bro moon boi. Understandable. Few have guessed that The Dogeclaren came into being when I was a single mom, had no business keeping the car, but decided to go all the way… for the lulz.

I didn’t buy the McLaren. It was actually won at a crypto conference in Miami. When I was offered the money or the car, I didn’t hesitate. I wanted to keep the McLaren, and I wanted to Doge it. Something about it gave me the hope that anything was possible again, and I wanted the Dogeclaren to instill that in others as well.

But why the Doge you may ask…? 

I believe that the Doge meme perfectly captures the true frequency of the universe - humor and play. Profound, I know. It’s what I believe. 

There’s something about that funny expression that never fails to remind me that everything is silly, nothing is forever, and I might as well cherish every situation I find myself in. Life is too short to not experience it all as joyfully & playfully as possible. 

In all seriousness / silliness, I do believe that the Doge is a Divine Avatar sent to save humanity at a perfectly ordained moment in time :)

But this is not a story just about me… Others were involved in this epic mission to Doge a McLaren. My best friend in Doge, Gary Lachance - logistical mastermind - gifted me the wrap and had it perfectly applied in a matter of hours. Needless to say, I was MUCH WOWED! Maybe even swooned a little…

We knew it would be ridiculous, but had no idea the joy & hilarity that would ensue. 

This is easily the funniest supercar in existence and truly a phenomenon. From little kids to menacing meatheads, old ladies and the homeless, everyone loves her and laughs and cheers every time she roars by. The Doge consistently evokes heartfelt happiness across the entire spectrum of humanity.

Since the wrap was applied in November 2021, Gary and I have driven The Dogeclaren to three countries and countless towns and cities, spreading laughter and good vibes from coast to coast. 

We look forward to continuing to spread joy, silliness and high-speed hilarity around the world. We feel there is no mission more imperative. The Doge compels us!

Our hope is that as many vehicles as possible will soon be wrapped in Doge, and The Dogeclaren will continue to evolve into a more and more ridiculous manifestation of Dogely devotion.

Think: amphibious, sound and light shows, monster truck wheels, flame throwers, insertion into a giant hamster ball, etc!
