This is exactly the information I needed to hear. But that’s also why for my fantasy Tacoma I’m building an access cab with the 6 foot bed. What’s with the 4 door pickups, surprised we haven’t had 6 doors yet with a 3 ft bed - but god forbid you put a 196’ person in the backseat, sheesh.

GL -it did the job - loaded with all sorts of things as you could imagine. My first request at the rental agency was for a tonneau cover -very functional….. Attachment 500499

Traveling from Germany to North Bend WA is a long way to go, even if it's for a damn fine cup of coffee. And a slice of cherry pie.

It’s all about your target market

My company car service guy at the Dodge dealership owns this beast.

Duuuude....what happened to your truck?


When I worked for a logging company one of the guys had a tree fall on the bed of his truck. Everyone knew what happened, but asked anyways just to piss him off.

It's not leaking oil, it's marking its territory.

1925 Rolls-Royce Phantom I - check out the round door.

"An unlikely combination of extravagant European coachwork on a conservative British chassis, the car began as a 1925 Rolls-Royce Phantom I, and in 1934 it received a unique body built by Jonckheere of Belgium."

That Continental is the cats ass. It's so fucking ugly it's beautiful. Some tire chains and a ski rack on the hood. Perfect.

This is what every half ton looked like from my Impreza (rip).
Trucks are killing people and a big part of it is the hood height. And a lot of that is purely cosmetic. You can't see all the school children in front of your vehicle because 'merika, fuck yeah.

If you were a Tele skier in the late ‘80’s, you probably shuttled in one of these. Ours was known as “The ATM”

^^That belongs in the wagon stoke thread!

Hope you're well.

Met up with CatInJanuary this week in Portlandia (ME). Back in the 802 now. Lemme know if you're ever over this way visiting yer kid...

Never tele'd, but had one of those, and subsequently an 89 Corolla All-Trac/4WD Wagon (both in the 90s). Great ski cars.

cash machine^

we still have a 92 corolla alltrac

Kudos for keeping it on the road. We replaced ours with an early 90s Outback, which was a similarity great ski car (and less rusty). I still occasionally see the All-Trac driving around town.

Another classic in our little village

This has been her daily driver for 38 years. Drivetrain is 100% original, the only modification is front disc brakes.

I had a nice conversation with the Free Gaza folks that were tabling in front of New Seasons last weekend.

"Do you know what's happening in Lebanon?"
"Yes, it's a complex situation"
"No, it's very simple"

That's when I walked away. So simple the region has been at war for 75 years ¯\_(?)_/¯
