    Like I said, the old girl’s been driven less than 35K miles; If she were still in the family, she’d have over 200K...

    The new owner had the airbags (or maybe it was airbag parts) under recall after the Takata scandal, and the SRS light came on a short time later...

    Still has a decent factory sound system (though the CD player only worked when it felt like it)...

    Here is something that you definitely do not see everyday...

    A brand new single-family home with a one-car garage! Unless of course it’s on an overpriced and undersized lot in Doylestown Borough!

    84BC1071-F754-460E-9636-5ED2983C7C63.jpg 5340CCDA-792D-40A6-928F-DA64207B9FDF.jpg 3F6795C8-AC46-40FF-9D3E-B557A9E34D8C.jpg B868E106-FC04-4394-BC51-0D5764C760A5.jpg

    This is actually a decent sized house, and even better, I am 99% sure there was not a house here before; So no teardown! Still, it’s only got a 1-car garage, there’s almost no yard, and I guarantee it’ll be going for close to $600K at a minimum!

    I always wondered this, what is the county pd, so basically the sheriffs office performs the traditional duties such as admin, jail and court. And the county pd performs law enforcement duties in the unincorporated areas of the county not covered by a city / city police?

    Apparently, less than 107,000 Tacomas were made for the 2010 model year. I don't know if this includes 2010 models that were produced in 2009 (like mine), or U.S. and Canadian models...

    Does anybody know if there's any way to narrow production numbers down by cab/bed configuration, 2WD/4WD, engine/transmission, etc?

    Once i was told lenses with more than like 10x zoom were not allowed. I had brought in my 300f/4L. The guy asked what level zoom the lens was - I said it is zero, because it doesn't zoom. He looked at me funny then let me through. A rule I follow which may be incorrect is this: focal length / 50 = sorta effective zoom.

    What does it mean? You’re confusing me. It’s just a picture of a parking garage under construction.

    For the next few days, the “boost”

    Were you asking if it was hot out when I took the pictures?

    @El Duderino

    You live in Honolulu...

    Have you ever met Duane Lee Chapman, better known as Dog the Bounty Hunter? How about the late Beth Chapman?

    Today, on That was available as a stick shift?!?!

    I knew that certain Fusions were available with manual transmissions as late as 2014, but this is the first time I’ve seen a Fusion of any year with a manual transmission in person!

    This was in the parking lot at work; My coworkers seem to love having three pedals! One guy drives a 2007-2010ish Camry with a manual stick shift, and a guy I work with directly has a base model stick shift Mitsubishi Lancer (as in NOT an EVO)!

    The Camry, which I also realized has leather seats...

    84264023-43EB-48CC-B575-95CDB463AFC8.jpg A25D19EB-A09E-471F-847A-555D85B2FD0D.jpg

    I’m guessing the leather seats are aftermarket, since only base models have a third pedal and this one does not have a sunroof. I have seen plenty of Camrys from this generation (2007-2011?) with a factory sunroof and cloth seats, but never one with factory leather seats and no sunroof.
