it's ALL white jeep to me

Please help track down a spoken (screamed) word piece about a white jeep.
I’m looking for any info on a spoken-word recording from the perspective of a guy who’s been dumped by his girl and now sees an unfamiliar white jeep parked in front of her house (signifying a new male visitor), and goes on a screaming tirade about it.
From the beginning of the piece (at least the segment I’ve heard), the speaker is yelling: I bet she’s taking him back in her arms RIGHT NOW! and gradually gets more and more worked up; by the end he’s screaming and his voice cracks on various threats of violence: I wanna light the rag! that’s shoved inside the fuel can! It’s ALL white jeep to me! and by the end he’s in a total frenzy and only screaming WHITE JEEP! FUCKING WHITE JEEP! WHIIITE JEEEEP! (I realize this is some goofy shit)
The only place I’ve heard this was in an audio collage mashup thing created (on tape!) by a friend of a friend. Friend A, the tape’s recipient, doesn’t know the audio clip’s source, and has lost contact with friend B, the tape’s creator. It was made in the early 90s and I listened to it with friend A many times during college (94-97), but have not heard it since. I do not have a copy. I’ll see if she remembers details I don’t, but I’m sure she doesn’t know the clip’s origin.
There was no music or any other background noises within this clip.
I can’t prove this spoken-word piece was professionally done, but I’m pretty sure the collage’s creator was not the source. Nothing else on the tape was self-done - his voice does not appear; it was all cobbled together from elsewhere. I realize it may have been done by a friend of his, which would be equally amateur and impossible to track, but it seemed more like a hidden track on some obscure album. The collage was put together from a great variety of sources, mostly audiobooks. The only ones I remember identifying were Return of the Jedi and Dan Millman’s Way of the Peaceful Warrior. (Yeah.)
I google this every year or so and have come up with nothing. This is a very long shot but I thought I might as well ask.

I know this isn't the same song, but the Dresden Dolls have a track called "The Jeep Song" with a very similar premise (singer sees ex-Lover's Jeep all over town, painful memories):
Dresden Dolls - The Jeep Song I know this doesn't answer your question, but it's a good tune (email me if you want to hear it) and if you have a sudden fascination with Jeep-themed broken-heart songs, this could fit the bill.
