Watch: Ohioan Drives Oscar Mayer Wienermobile

FRANKFORT, IL — Wonder what it's like to step inside the iconic Oscar Mayer Wienermobile, the street-legal, mobile marketing tool that's as recognizable to most people as Doc Brown's 1982 Delorean or any of Batman's seemingly endless line of Batmobiles?

Better yet, wonder what it's like to be hired by the lunch meat company and tasked with driving the Wienermobile in parades, to trade shows and even using it as a personal set of wheels?

Wienermobile drivers — or "hotdoggers," as they're better known — Lizzie Duffey, 22, and Isaac Wilker, 23, were at Mariano's in Frankfort on Sunday afternoon, giving shoppers a chance to take pictures with the hot dog hot rod and letting them take a peek between the buns. The Frankfort visit was a brief stop before heading to a weeklong event in Des Moines.

The duo landed their jobs right out of college — Duffey, who's from McFarland, Wisconsin, graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh, and Wilker, who hails from Saint Sebastian, Ohio, earned a degree from Ohio University — and now they navigate America's highways in a four-wheeled vehicle that's fueled with a signular desire (and a full tank of gas): a wish to be an Oscar Mayer wiener.

Duffey and Wilker talked with Patch Editor Joe Vince about the job and shared their stories of life on the road. They also gave a quick tour inside their road hog dog.
