Trivia
- The Beatles were one of the best-selling and most influential pop groups of all time, and pretty much dominated the charts during the 1960s on both sides of the Atlantic. They were noted for drug references in their later songs.
- The car itself - a 1966 Volkswagen Type 1 1300 "Beetle" - is clearly based on Herbie The Love Bug, another 1960s touchstone. Additionally, Herb E is homophone of Herbie.
- Herb is a slang term for cannabis, while 'E' is an offhand way of referring to the drug ecstasy.
- He looks almost identical to Wide Boy, except that his right pupil is more golden.
- Beatle's tires appear to be based of same texture as Monster Masher's tires. Center of texture is modified with addition of moon style hubcaps. Some real life monster trucks had moon hubcaps.
