Barry (Bikeverse)

Barry is a blue 1997 Chevrolet Lumina LS, who features in When Bikes Argue 2.

In reality
When the Dozerfleet founder's family first moved to the old house in Grand Ledge and away from their previous home on Southlawn Drive, it was in need for a second vehicle, being reduced to only one green 1996 Dodge Grand Caravan minivan. Finding a deal on this Lumina, the family took it. That Lumina eventually became the founder's mother's main vehicle, It later became his main vehicle in 2003, after the loss of a pewter-gray 1994 Saturn SL1 purchased in late 2001.

This Lumina was used for everything from When Bikes Argue 2 to Harry's Hardwood Floor Planner to whatever else at Lansing Community College it was needed for. It later was used for transportation to and from Ferris State University, where it spent the fall of 2006 until the late spring of 2008 being mostly parked in Lot 47. It was relocated in the summer of 2008 to Lot 5, right next to North Bond Hall. It remained with that as its main station until the late spring of 2010, when the Dozerfleet founder left Ferris. During its tenure, it was used for everything from trips to Wal-Mart for lemonade, to trips to Merre's house, to making runs across Big Rapids for various class assignments, to being used for Volkonir preparations, to being used for Mutt Mackley and Gambino Penguin's "Somewhere I Belong" video, to trips to Grand Rapids and Farmington when searching for an internship location.

The Lumina began to suffer mechanical and part failures in the late fall of 2010, requiring a re-plating of the engine and expensive transmission fluid cleaning and replacement. It later was used for trips to Peckham in 2011, when the Dozerfleet founder briefly worked there. It later became used for Grand Ledge stock photo acquisition, as well as Ciem 2 artwork research in 2012. In 2013, it was used for visiting a park along Waverly, where a memorial was held for Emily Kincare.

In late 2014, the Lumina's brake system encountered a critical failure. With mechanics unable to work with its stripped bolts to repair its systems, there was no way to secure lines to prevent leakage of brake fluid. The car was without functional brakes for about two weeks, where it was then taken to a scrap yard. It was sold to the scrap yard for about $400, roughly the value of its tires. It was replaced with a 2001 Chevy Venture van in 2015, which was in-turn replaced with a 2002 Honda Odyssey van in 2016. Said Honda van served Dozerfleet Productions until 2021, when it was donated to a man in need whose life had been turned upside-down by the Globalist Scamdemic, and by its influence on Michigan politics and economics.

In-universe
Barry is seen parked in one part of the driveway of the old Grand Ledge house on December 13th of 2005. Ackro turns to him for advice on how to get on Colly's good side; but Barry is wholly uninterested in helping Ackro. Instead, Barry fantasizes about how much he'd love to have a romantic couple use his backseat for sex. Ackro rides himself away, in immeasurable disappointment with how useless Barry is to him.

Personality
Barry is obsessed with the idea of his backseat being used for romantic purposes. He talks about everything in terms of how a car can make someone look more attractive to a human female. He is regarded in this way by the others as having a one-track mind. He is delusional, believing he is a "sexy car," in spite the others constantly reminding him to the contrary.
