The bonanza includes a one-year supply of diapers, which the automaker said in a statement is "to avoid any other unexpected deliveries in the car." GM — which said the baby was "miraculously delivered" — gave the family two child safety seats, a stroller and "numerous other supplies," including bottles, formula and toys. "We knew the Cobalt was designed to deliver its occupants safely, but never did we expect a delivery quite like this," said Margaret Brooks, Chevrolet product marketing director of small cars and crossovers. The baby's birth created a media sensation. Amanda McBride was driving her Chevy Cobalt to the hospital while in labor. The child's father, Joseph Phillips, was unable to drive because of a medical condition, according to the automaker. With the baby's birth imminent, McBride told the Bemidji * Pioneer* that she pulled down her pants, while Phillips steered the car. "And then the baby just came right out," she said. "I was just sitting on the seat and he just slid out. It really wasn't bad at all." McBride told ABC News that she was going about 70 miles per hour in the car at the time and had put the car "on cruise." The parents say that the baby has been nicknamed "Joe Chevy." -- Celebrating 10 years of bringing diversity to perversity! Mahogany at: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/mahogany_pleasures_of_darkness/
