Although he's the one who keeps reminding me that when you front left and back right tire are both flat you know it wasn't an accident........

Yep. The dude who runs it has a Tanry with some significant body damage. You see tons of tan Camrys all over the place, so he put up the blog for fun.

He's the kind of guy who drove to see Tommy Wiseau (of "The Room" fame) and get his picture taken with him. Sometimes people just want to be goofballs.

I think it's pretty funny.

I wish I had thought of it first because I'd do some kind of breathless-prose blog like Speedhunters but for a specific kind of boring commuter car, doing intense technical profiles on "builds" and analyzing everyone's life story about their cars. Well... I guess I could do that anyway.

I'm almost ashamed to admit that I photograph every Chrysler Pacifica I see and text it to a friend of mine, and he sends me photos of Mercedes RLs in return. The joke has been going on for so long now that I don't even remember what started it years ago, but we can't stop. My wife even takes photos of them when she sees one and sends it to me so I can send it to him. I have possibly the largest collection of Chrysler Pacifica photos in history.

Speaking of terrible Chrysler products working well above and beyond their call of duty, I saw this hauling down US60 a week or two ago (not my photo):



I was amazed to see that it's even capable of 65MPH, even though you could hear it working drat hard to stay there.

Hell I could restrict it to only taking pictures when I park next to the same body style outback and still be taking pictures almost everywhere. Its so bad that my gf has tried many times to get into the wrong car, since another green ~2000 outback with a similar dog rear seat cover decided to park a few spots away from her.

I live in Washington and no joke at least 50% of my friends with cars have Subarus. Of my friends that don't have cars, most of them say they would get a Subaru.

Subarus are the "guns and bibles" of the Northwest, and it seems that no amount of blown headgaskets, broken suspensions, or rattletrap interiors will diminish their blind faith in the mighty Pleiades.

Edit: Don't get me wrong, I don't hate Subarus, but they're really disproportionately popular here and a lot of people would probably be better served with a different vehicle for a number of reasons. For every one person I know that really uses their Outback for its intended purpose, I know two more people that rarely leave the city.

Best part? It's a Caprice, and not even one of the round ones.

edit: CONTENT!

Spotted this on the road a while back:


And this at work. I'd say he was waiting to afford huge rims, but it's been like that for over a year. Really clean CVPI except for the 4x4 stance.




Yes, it rides stiff as hell, thanks to the cargo coils or whatever he's got under there.


And the best for last. Saw this while out with family last Saturday:


There is not enough :ughh: for this.

Your first pic is upside down, which made viewing it on my phone hilariously difficult. Also a CVPI/Caprice with that stance generally means they are in the process of being donked. That last car is just horrible.

That's pretty presumptuous :colbert:

That lift is nowhere near sufficient for anything larger than stock tires. It's possible he's got air bags and keeps it aired up to whatever is comfortable for driving.

When I had my white '96 legacy (see above photo) I accidentally opened the door of someone else's white '96 legacy parked one row over from me in the lot. He even had the same color interior. I only realized it was the wrong car when I saw how dirty it was inside.

When I had my silver 2001 Cavalier I parked it at a mall, then came out to find four other identical silver Cavaliers parked next to it.

To make matters worse, my key fob battery had died so I had to try and manually figure out which car was mine. It was the one that wasn't filled with trash and whose muffler hanger was still intact.
