    I think I've seen two different wagons in the past two or three years, both well taken care off. I think they offered them in the sedan version, can't recall for certain.

    It's a Saaburu. My best man has one. He got a great deal on it new because it had all sorts of cold weather upgrades and was sitting on the lot in SoCal. It's a fun little car.

    California man Gabriel Moreno was driving along Highway 99 when he threw his hazards on and motioned a Cherokee Freight Lines tanker truck to the side of the highway.

    After both vehicles reached a slower speed, Moreno hopped out of his car, clad only in his underwear, and jumped onto the still-moving truck. Moreno rode the side of the truck, and then climbed underneath the truck itself, as the truck sped back up to freeway speeds.

    The driver then noticed a dashboard gauge showing he was losing fluids, and called the California Highway Patrol. The driver pulled over, and the driver found Moreno, still under the truck, still clad only in his underwear, having unscrewed the cap to the tank that contained thousands of gallons of WINE, which was gushing out, and attempting to drink as much as he could.

    No, especially if there were floaties in it.

    Vacationers Find Alligator Lounging on Alligator Pool Float at Their Miami Airbnb

    [​IMG]



    Here are some places in Florida where you can reasonably expect to encounter an alligator: a storm sewer, the end of an airport runway, your local golf course. But this might be a first — while in town for a wedding, Georgia resident Dave Jacobs and his family spotted a gator casually chilling on an alligator-shaped pool float at their Airbnb in South Miami.

    "My daughter, who’s 14, was like, 'Dad, this is soooo meta,'" Jacobs tells New Times.

    Jacobs says his family first spotted the gator in the lake outside of their vacation rental Saturday. The alligator seemed to be taunting their dog, Rascal, who spent the day barking and running around the screened-in pool deck.

    "We thought that was pretty cute," Jacobs says. "Then, the next day, it just showed up in the pool."

    Jacobs' wife called the Airbnb's owner, who contacted someone from wildlife management. Eventually, the gator wrangler was able to fish the reptile out of the pool. He told Jacobs he's been busy lately because it's mating season for alligators.


    "I guess it's not that unusual, but it was unusual to me," Jacobs says.

    This morning, Jacobs and his family began the long drive home, where at least they'll be able to share some pretty interesting stories about their priceless Florida Man experience.

    "We have gators in Georgia, but they're just in areas that are not as populated, like some swamp where no one lives," Jacobs says. "But in Florida, they're just in your neighborhoods."

    It does indeed, but FloridaMan has been known to bend the rules of reality on occasion.

    True shit right here, we actually have a crocodile in the Manatee pocket where I live. One of the residents called the game wardens to have the alligator removed because of her pet ankle biter dog that she didnt want to get eaten. So they came out to see how big it was, once they saw it they told the lady "No can do, it gets to stay, thats not a Gator it's a crocodile and they are super protected. Better keep the ankle biter on a leash and indoors".

    I've also seen alligators on the beach. Yes gators swim in salt water. I live about 3/4 of mile from where the photo in the article was taken.
