Done. That's half a block from my house, so I literally just drove there and took the photo.

Next challenge: :siren: Post a pic of your car on or beside a bridge. :siren:


Thanks to you guys, I have snuck out of work to go and drive my car to a nearby bridge:



Next challenge: :siren: Post a pic of your car by a State park (or equivalent) sign. :siren:

Whoa hold the phone man, I call foul.

That's just a substation. Power station implies a generation plant to me :colbert:

Agreed, but I didn't want to rock the boat. I think we're too far along to reset the whole drat thing at this point.

:siren: Post a picture of your car in front of old military hardware on display (planes, tanks, guns...). :siren:

I know just the spot but I'm worried about being questioned by a guard. drat.

"Why are you here taking photos sir?"

"Um...for an internet game"

"Please come with me sir."

You don't have a nearby museum, rec centre, public park, cenotaph, etc., with a tank on display?

Jesus what the hell is wrong with America.

They don't hand out tanks like they used to. When I was a kid they were everywhere, now not so much.

Edit: since I'm not going to do it, I was going to get a photo in front of this plane on a stick:



but it's an active ANG base, so I don't want to park in front and take a photo.

Well, I'd hope you'd ask permission. I can't see most farmers/ranchers/etc. saying no if you have manners and ask respectfully.

"Hi Mr Farmer! I can see you're busy working 12 hour days taking care of your farm that's barely breaking even on a good year and losing money hand over fist on a bad year but can I - a complete stranger who you have never met - place my car inside your ancient barn already filled to the top with your equipment and/or silage and hay to take a photo for an internet comedy site?"

There's a 15 minute loading zone across the street from the Sears Tower...

If you can get to the observation deck in 15 you deserve to name the next challenge.

If it's ironic pretension, like a Geo Metro with a huge wing on the back, no dice. We'll leave that for another challenge.

shitbox auto v6 mustang with hood pins and those "chrome" tips you can buy for your exhaust at Wal*Mart is A-OK because the owner thinks that poo poo rules

What about weekend warrior Harley?

Someone did several rotations in the middle of Rt 28. Does that count?

Knowing where that is and what must've been involved, I say yes, but I am not the arbiter of what is right.

:siren: Post a picture of your car with two items: One from as close as possible to where your car was made, and one from as far away as possible.:siren:

Please clarify "where your car was made"

Brand country of origin?

Final assembly?

Average of distance of the different parts? (i.e. engine in Japan, body in UK, final assembly in USA?)

ok who else misread this initially as "take a picture of a stranger in your car"

I was like "How do I make the car take the photo? Backup camera?"
