OT, really OT!!! Coolest pickup truck ever!

[idamtnboy]

I met this car (pickup?) on Hwy 20/26 here in Idaho today! Going too fast to get a really good look at it. Of course, you don't expect to see something like this coming toward you so when it's there by the time the reality of it sinks in it's long gone! Goes to show what sort of things you can do in retirement if you keep your health by doing such things as taking care of an OSA problem!

Damn, that's way too cool, I wish I'd had one like that when I was a kid.

[GumbyCT]

Is that a sign of having too much unspent money? Or no kids? Both?

[BlackSpinner]

Spending the kids inheritance!

THAT was awesome!!!!! lol

We have a guy here who built a boat on wheels. He drives it around every chance he gets. It's something to see!

And then just to tweak the memories there was the old Volkswagon Beatle bag in the 60s that drove around our town w/a big key attached to its rear hood. Just like a wind up toy. And amongst all those big "boats" of the day that we were driving it really did seem like a toy.

I remember my uncle drove up to our house one day in an Isetta. Uncle Russ was pretty tall and lanky. Aunt Irene was pretty short and chunky. The front of the Isetta opened up, the steering wheel and gas pedal, etc. folded up against the door and Uncle Russ and Aunt Irene stepped out. Talk about great gas mileage!!!!

Truly Nolan Exterminators use to have their inspectors drive a VW Bug with a tail attached to rear of car.

I had a Flyer wagon. I have a pass to the 1939 Worlds Fair at Flushing Meadows, NY for what its worth.

Awesome! I want one!

[chunkyfrog]

That takes me back!
My brother and I towed our radio flyer up and down the meadow behind a fast roping horse.
We took turns riding the wagon. Nobody knew!

Ach, Chunky!!!! That reminds me of my daughter training her bay mare to drive w/the hood of a car!!! And then later a dog racing sled!!! Why mothers get gray hair.

[haajeureee]

those pickup are really cool. Get a auto insurance quotes

[chunkyfrog]

My mom doesn't have much more gray than I do.

[Lizistired]

That's cool! And it has a built in towbar if it breaks down!

[ThirdOutOfFive]

Totally awesome! Wish I had the energy and know-how to do something similar. Guess I'll have to settle for the Wrangler hubby wants. He thinks he is going to be the main driver of the Jeep. Fat Chance!!!
