Keep carpet rolled up under a bench seat, like a thing of saran wrap. Roll out a new section when the old one gets grody.

These all look great, which makes the original posted look even worse in comparison.

I've never had the chance to sit in a kei truck, how well would a 6'4" large rear end human fare?

The swing down sides and hundreds of tie downs is something I've only seen outside of the US. Even the previous run of Rangers in rest-of-world configurations had beds like that available. Always pissed me off that we never got the useful upfits here.

Features that are also available on the $20/hr truck rentals from Home Depot here, which is enough to cover the needs of a ton of people that buy trucks. I rent probably 2-3 times a year, hatchback is plenty the rest of the time.

lol, defensive much? I don't know that I've ever mentioned truck rentals here, but if you say so. Wasn't commenting on your need or lack thereof at all.

I know it's boomer poo poo, but my office mate is retiring in a few months and got himself a super clean '56 Chevy. Replaces a '71 Corvette convertible that caught fire and burned up earlier this year.

Also if you want to rib him a bit in his final work months you should point out it has the same paint job as a porta John.

Oh man, it really really does.

There's ribbing and then there's soul crushing. I don't know if I could do that to someone

He was already on the fence for a week before pulling the trigger because it was a lighter shade of blue than he wanted, I think that would absolutely crush him.

Spotted this bad boy outside my friend's bar last night:


I happened to be shooting an event there - lots of portraits and group shots - so I had my camera with a 50mm prime lens. Someone pointed at the road and I spun around, let out a huge *GASP* and screamed "THAT'S MY FAVOURITE CAR!!!"

I hope you track this guy down and send him a print, because that is badass.

Is the CLA was the mercedes ford taurus for the $30,000 millionaire crowd

My uncle bought a Mercedes 300E in 1990 and tried to trick all the kids into thinking that it was a Ford Taurus with fake badges. My youngest brother is still convinced that it was.

That is cool as hell, I love how excited Mike gets about it. Wheeler Dealers is still the best car show on tv, I hope Elvis sticks around for a while.

In other news, I knew Australia was crazy for utes, but I somehow have never seen this glorious bastard before.

Looks like it's finally happening, and the N Vision 74 is going into production. Sadly it's a monkeys paw situation, only 100 will be built and 30 are reserved for internal use.

Those Lada Nivas own bones. Speaking of, the new Rivian R3X give me strong Niva vibes, as well as Lancia Delta and I'm now thinking about putting a deposit on one when able.

Also early VW Golf/Rabbit with big tires.

Edit: to be clear, this is a good thing.

Yup! I once owned an 84 Rabbit so this is ticking all the right boxes for me.
