that truck would sell for a million bucks here because there are none left.


but it would only rust out and fall apart within 3-4 years just like every other dodge does.

It's interesting how that works. There are old chevys and fords here but almost no dodges. I know of only one that is pre 1980. I may have seen 2 pre- 1992 models in the course of the last year.

I wonder how new pickups will age.

It takes a long time for plastic to decompose so if that's any indication...

I'm into poverty caps and painted steel wheels right now.

I would own this car. I've always wanted a Mustang, but the larger cars can be really cool.





























Or how about this beauty?







I bet his inspiration was Pixar's original Cars movie.

Could be worse!

You might want to note how to contact Swiss Air somewhere on the boat, too. I don't know their reach these days, but they used to have the reputation of flying anywhere they could land to support a medical emergency.
