    Yeah Escort GT's were pretty cool vehicles for the time.

    If I were buying a new Dodge Caravan in 1994, it would have it be this exact one; I love green pearl paint combined with the gold trim!

    721A5CA9-5FE5-4BEF-B79F-BAF82D036B08.jpg 67388BF6-79F5-4B44-B763-124722E6709F.jpg 5A3E62C8-4691-4FCF-8BA4-C0867AB80DF4.jpg

    The “Gold Special Edition Package” was only available on the mid-level SE trim, but it came standard with the same larger 15-inch front brakes as all Grand Caravan models; You could also get the larger 3.3L V6, the Infinity stereo system, the Quad Command rear bucket seats, and power everything; The biggest difference between the LE and the SE was that the SE had slightly different upholstery, but an SE could loaded up with most of the same options as the top-level LE.

    And does anybody else notice the resemblance here?

    I saw these at Best (remember that place?) in like 1993 and wanted one, but I already had a Cozy Coupe and my dad wouldn’t buy it for me :(

    So, a kid got hit by a hit-and-run driver in my neighborhood today...

    Ambulance came and took him to the hospital; Expected to live, but jeez...

    WTF is wrong with people?!?! No integrity anymore!

    First frost I’ve seen since last winter (if you could call it a winter)!

    Nailed this guy (or girl?) on the way home from the car show in Skippack...

    Not only wasn’t there much of a splatter factor (like there usually is when when bugs hit the grille), but it still seemed to be moving!
