That van and that Volvo look like they were parked next to a couple VW's in front of a thrift store and a Hobby Lobby that exploded.

Your tax dollars at work.

By the way you're not paying enough taxes. Just ask Governor Hair Gel. Step it up buddy. He's got another bridge that no one will use to build.

That looks tasty!

I’m taking my 10-yo daughter hunting for the first time this season, hoping to fill a tag and fill the freezer.

I have a sausage maker but I've never used it. I kind of want to after seeing those. Yummy.

:lol: Yeah. Fresno to Madera. That's such a good idea. I'm sure it will be very popular. :lol:

I'm sure the people in Fresno are just dying to go to Madera at high speed to pick grapes. :rolleyes:

Where's the next one going? From Solvang to Gilroy? :lol: You've got to be kidding me.

I could see a high speed rail going from Humboldt to Los Angeles. Just don't check that luggage that smells like skunk. It's not a skunk. Take my word on that. :lol: :smoke:

Yes we make our own . Have to mix in pork no fat on venison. Friend has a commercial sausage maker used to use the kitchenaid with the attachment very slow .

That sausage does look really good. Is that commercial sausage grinder chain drive? We do sausage at a friend's place who got one out of a place that closed down. Huge motor.

Yuck. It's bad enough to think about what's in hot dogs. :lol: I don't care I'll eat them anyway. I eat Chorizo and you know what that looks like. Like a turd wrapped in plastic. But it is tasty and I don't want to know what's in it. Some things are just better with no questions asked.

I have the Kitchen Aid thingy. It is really slow at grinding meat. Painfully slow. I need a better one. But it will just be another thing taking up space. I'll use it maybe once a year.

My random pic... Finally got my S10 home. It's pretty much what I expected. Not a total POS but it's a POS. I have to figure out what to do with it. The hood is toast and the grille is not looking to good either. And it won't start. Isn't that special. But for $500 I'm taking a shot. Maybe I can do something with it.

I bought off my friend who is completely insane. Nicest guy in the world but he's a nut. I was cleaning the junk out of the cab, cigarette butts, beer cans, some ripped up IRS papers, and bullets. Not a surprise. I was expecting worse.

with the rising cost of ammo these days you might have already made your money back on that s10 :lol:

^ :lol: So true! I haven't been to a gun range in two years. I ain't paying those prices for ammo, even .22LR is stupid expensive.

No kidding. But these were only .22's and just a few of them. I am going to sell the camper shell. Maybe make a couple of bucks on that. I'd rather have the bed open. Now I just have to find a hood. The grille is 50/50 on whether I can fix it or not.

My plan is to just make it my beater. It has the 2.2 four banger in it so it should get some decent mileage and I wont have to worry about scratching it up.

They were selling beer out of the other side and the other I think was selling ice cream. They were kinda cool for being "food trucks" but I guess maybe they're actually a building? I don't know..

That makes two of us. It looks to be a Toyota. Whatever it is it's cool.

Kind of reminds me of Tim's Baja Bus.

I don't know what make that first one is. Daihatsu? Every few years I'll see a passenger vehicle made by Daihatsu. There sure aren't that many, but they must sell them here somewhere. I've never seen a dealership. Maybe they sell them at the heavy equipment dealerships.

My sister moved her family to Idaho in the early-90s. They bought one of those Toyota Tercel 4wd mini vans. Pretty unique for the time as well as ahead of it's time. But damn was that thing funky looking? Reminded me of the vans they'd drive in those tacky Japanese monster shows like Gigantor or Ultra-man. But I think they were driving Corvair Vans! :lol:

I like the funky look of it. If I had money burning a hole in my pocket I would bid on this one ... https://carsandbids.com/auctions/rN0...gon-exceed-4wd

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
 
the first one I posted is not only a Mitsubishi, it is the very same one CG posted without the roof rack

FleetsidePaul 09-21-2022 04:37 PM

Re: Random Photos ‘You took’
 
The reason that you don't see Daihatsu's is that they were overpriced. They had a reputation as being well built cars and priced them too high. And they were ugly as sin. Nobody bought them. Hyundai had the right idea with those POS Excel's. That got their foot in the door in the US market. Really low priced cars. Now they're beating Toyota. Very smart marketing if you ask me. You can't pick up chicks if you can't get into the party. Hyundai got in and Daihatsu went away.

Maybe they were better. But they were ugly. Might as well buy a Yugo.

Sorry I didn't take this pic. I haven't been overseas in a while. Just an example.

Wooja take 5? If you paid more than 10 you got beat!

Went to an antique truck show yesterday. Last week I went to C&O Canal Dam #5, on the MD side of the Potomac where the canal is. I wanted to check out Dam #4 on my way home. I decided since I was on the WVA side I'd explore my way to see the powerhouse side.

Palm trees by the RR tracks going up in flames as we drove by. My son thinks it was started by” hobos” cooking a can of beans over a campfire :lol:
